Wynonah Dove's latest release, an update on the Kitty Wells classic, a "honky tonk, woman done wrong song", It Wasn't God Who Made Honky Tonk Angels.
As a producer, Wynonah Dove relates: "I admire artists for their ability to take a classic & rev it up, like Dwight Yoakam and Raul Malo from The Mavericks, which inspired me to take a different approach on the production. I put myself in the speakers' shoes, which were (ironically?) a decent fit. Lived experience? Sure. To me, the lyrics really convey the viewpoint of a pissed-off, used-up, woman going through 'the change', bitterly reflecting on relationships with men. Kitty’s original version felt like a woman apologising or meekly justifying herself - rather than "Kitty with her claws out" - correcting the double-standard, misogynistic point of view. This new production feels vindicated, with a certain sense of justice. Or that the woman at least 'had her say' and was 'heard'. And that’s all we really want anyway."
Album (2022)
Primary Genre(s): Bluegrass & Appalachian Folk
Album Length: 30 Minutes
Album Title: Clinch Mountain: Gossip, Fabrications & Other Allegations
Artist: Wynonah Dove
Release Date: 22 Feb 2022
Produced by: Wynonah Dove
Mixed/Mastered by: David Castle at Castle Recording Studios
Musicians: David Castle - Bass & Guitar
Tony Dingus - Pedal Steel & Dobro
Geoff Andrew - Guitar
Vicki Herbert & Martha Hackney - Backing Vocals
Wynonah Dove's songwriting weaves in and out of Appalachian folk, Americana & bluegrass traditions - creating tragedies and philosophical tales with a smidge of truth and biographical gossip. A self-described Appalachian-gypsy, Wynonah traded her birthplace on Virginia's Crooked Road in the coal fields for the perpetual sunshine of Australia in 2014. This fresh perspective from the other side of the world lent a healthy dose of homesickness to the creative process and led Wynonah to re-explore her hillbilly heritage deep in the Clinch Mountains of southwestern Virginia.
The album features four co-writes with Dwight Bishop (USA) and Geoff Andrew (Australia). Geoff also provided the lead bluegrass licks for “How Many Times”. Good friend, engineer, producer & GRAMMY award winner, David Castle (Best Album “Lost in the Lonesome Pines”, Ralph Stanley/Jim Lauderdale) features on lead acoustic guitar throughout the project as well as US production, mix and master. Tony Dingus (who has recorded with Ralph Stanley among others) provides legendary prowess on dobro and pedal steel. Rounding out the mix with stunning harmonies are Vicki Brown Helbert & Martha Hackney Conley on backing vocals.
