I absolutely love Amos Lee, have been since his self-titled debut album back in 2005. ‘Arms of a Woman’ off that album still gives me goosebumps. He released ‘Supply and Demand’ in 2006, and ‘Last Days at the Lodge’ in 2008. Those albums are each beautiful – and I listen to them constantly. When I heard he was releasing a new album – I was ecstatic! It’s been three years since his new album, so I was so excited to hear his new music! ‘Mission Bell’ is a beautiful album. It comes out on January 25th – and will only be $9.99. So if you’re an Amos Lee fan like I am, you must buy it! You will not be disappointed!

GO HERE to pre-order your copy of ‘Mission Bell’

His new album is a beautiful folky-pop masterpiece. He even throws in a couple duets with Lucinda Williams and Willie Neslon! His soulful voice makes the lyrics he sings to life. My favorites on the album are “Violin”, “Stay With Me” (featuring Priscilla Ahn – love her too!) and “El Camino”.

On January 25, Amos Lee will release Mission Bell, his fourth album for EMI’s Blue Note Records, and his richest and most fully formed album to date. Mission Bell, which was produced by Joey Burns of the acclaimed band Calexico, displays both range and cohesion, an array of emotions unified by Lee’s eclectic taste and distinctive vocals. With a remarkable set of guests—including Lucinda Williams, Willie Nelson, Sam Beam (Iron & Wine), Priscilla Ahn, Pieta Brown, and James Gadson—and the musical backing of Calexico, the album marks the arrival of Amos Lee as a mature artist who continues to explore his musical and thematic interests.
