Chris Duarte - Weak Days

Details

Description

From the Album: Ain't Giving Up Year of Release:2023
Chris Duarte emerged in the early '90s as a hotshot guitar slinger in the vein of Stevie Ray Vaughan. He's never shaken that reputation in the subsequent decades, nor has he attempted to lose it: he's a purveyor of lively blues-rock steeped in the Texas tradition. Ain't Giving Up falls squarely in that category -- there are times when Duarte's Strat sounds gargantuan, as on the opening fanfare to the SRV-inspired instrumental "Can Opener" -- but where his albums have sometimes seemed like extended excuses to jam, this 2023 set keeps the focus on songs and boogie. The concision and precision, when combined with heavier rhythms and distorted vocals, make Ain't Giving Up sound like a rocking roadhouse, tunes that keep a beer joint hopping from happy hour to last call. It's not only a welcome variation on Duarte's Lone Star blues, it might be the most fun he's ever had on record.

Chris Duarte announces ‘Ain’t Giving Up,‘ his 15th studio album, out April 14th via Provogue Records. Featuring a wide range of outlaw blues, Americana, roots, and even alt-country influences, ‘Ain’t Giving Up’ finds the Austin, Texas guitarist teaming up for the first time in 22 years with producer-guitarist Dennis Herring, also known for his work with artists like Buddy Guy, Modest Mouse, Elvis Costello, and the Hives. But the resulting album isn’t a calculated return to roots affair. Recorded live on the studio floor with vintage gear and minimal overdubs, it’s a raw and revved-up showcase for the virtuoso’s jaw-dropping chops; his mastery of the elusive Texas shuffle; and his deep love and commitment to the blues.

‘Ain’t Giving Up’ is intimate and gritty, but it also boasts pristine fidelity, as if we the listener are in the studio with Duarte and his buddies. It’s a reset for Duarte that shows his resilience and his undiminished love of the blues and American roots.
