That’s the old theatrical tradition.” \u003cem\u003eOne Match Left\u003c\/em\u003e showcases these aspects in epic fashion, with Nielsen playing the role of carnival barker, lullaby crooner, and rock \u0026amp; roll priest, depending on the track.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eIt’s actually Nielsen’s first time around without his partners from The Growlers; he’s now joined by old friends Christopher Darley (guitarist for Father John Misty) and Levi Prairie on songwriting duties. No stranger to the emotional landscapes of modern pop life, producer Michael Andrews expands the songs from the theatrical and into the cinematic. From his Elgin Park Recordings studio in Glendale, Andrews makes chart-topping hits (like the song “Mad World” from his soundtrack to \u003cem\u003eDonnie Darko\u003c\/em\u003e) and cult favorites (he scored the entirety of \u003cem\u003eFreaks \u0026amp; Geeks\u003c\/em\u003e and Pete Davidson’s \u003cem\u003eKing of Staten Island\u003c\/em\u003e).\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eAssembling a core team of himself on guitar and bass, Robert Walter (Roger Waters, The Greyboy Allstars) on keys, and Joey Waronker (Beck, Atoms For Peace) on drums, Andrews infuses the material with a lush palette, more akin to Harry Nilsson and Serge Gainsbourg than anything we’ve heard before from Nielsen.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eThrough the prism of time, we’ll see \u003cem\u003eOne Match Left\u003c\/em\u003e for the many things that it is: a reflection on the death of a relationship, a public reckoning for a fan-favorite band, a love letter to his wife (and mother of their three young children), a survey of global sound and vision, and a daring step forward for one of contemporary music’s most essential voices, Mr. Brooks Nielsen.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cstrong data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eKey Selling Points:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e-The Unmistakable \u0026amp; Legendary Voice of The Growlers.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\" class=\"gmail-Apple-converted-space\"\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e-20 song debut 2xLP.
