Michigan cousins Jim Wigand III and Tamara Finlay (The Thornbills) have chosen two Jack White produced songs, "Uncle Andrei" is a mysterious ode, reminiscent of a Russian waltz while "Square Peg" is a driving and charming tune layered with the strum of the guitar and wail of the violin.
Third Man and Nonsuch Records also are proud to produce the latest single from the Queen of Rock and First Lady of Rockabilly, Wanda Jackson, who brings the latest taste of her signature style to the label.
On the tracks "Thunder on the Mountain" and "Dust on the Bible," Jackson is joined by new friend, producer and Third Man Records founder Jack White, along with help from Jack Lawrence (The Dead Weather/Raconteurs), Carl Broemel (My Morning Jacket), Patrick Keeler (Raconteurs), Ashley Monroe, Jackson Smith and Karen Elson, to name a few.
Thunder On The Mountain is a particularly exceptional track. Originally penned by Bob Dylan and chosen for Mrs. Jackson by the poet himself – his rockabilly fever dream is given new life by the songstress.
