Dead Man's Town A Tribute To Born In The USA

Description

2024 marks the 40th anniversary of 'Born In The U.S.A.' by Bruce Springsteen. Although it became his best-selling album with seven singles in the top 10 of the Billboard Hot 100, Luther Dickinson of North Mississippi Allstars states that "any of these songs could be played with just an acoustic guitar and still be great." Taking this idea as a premise, 'Dead Man's Town: A Tribute to Born in the U.S.A.' strips the twelve indelible originals of the album down to their essence, featuring contributions from Jason Isbell & Amanda Shires, Low, Nicole Atkins, Justin Townes Earle, Blitzen Trapper, Joe Pug, Trampled by Turtles, and more. Rolling Stone premiered the cover of "Born In The U.S.A." produced by Jason Isbell and Amanda Shires, produced by Dave Cobb, stating that these artists "reinvent 'Born in the U.S.A.' with a more stripped-down approach influenced by the acoustic 'Nebraska'."
