THE BONES is the new studio release from Rusty Shackle. The album symbolises their outlook towards song-writing and recording as a band. They have consciously stripped back the music to the ‘bare bones’ and gone for a far more rootsy sound on the new album. The songs were written on the instruments they play, for the instruments.
All ten songs are written by Liam Collins apart from Glorious May and All At Sea which are co-writes with James McKeon. They wrote the songs just sat in a room jamming and throwing ideas about. This seemed like a very natural approach and this simplicity seemed to carry on through to the recording process. All tracks were recorded live together and to tape at the Monnow Valley Studios in Monmouth.
Rusty Shackle are a five piece band from South Wales, UK. Formed in early 2010 Rusty Shackle can be described as an Alternative Folk band, throwing together Guitars, Fiddle, Banjo, Mandola, Bass, Drums and Percussion to give their unique take on Contemporary folk music.
