180 gram Black vinyl includes download code. Anyone vaguely familiar with Kinsella's musical lineage (CAP'N JAZZ, AMERICAN FOOTBALL, OWLS) knows he's far from a one-note musician. And on new album, "L'Ami du Peuple", he expands his repertoire as a solo songwriter to include a touch of female vocals, pounding drums, and even dueling electric guitar lines. The variety of sounds featured on "L'Ami du Peuple" can largely be attributed to a new approach Kinsella took to the writing and recording process. Rather than locking himself in a room with mostly finished song ideas for a couple of weeks before emerging with a finished album, this time Kinsella involved producer Neil Strauch (IRON & WINE, BONNIE RINCE' BILLY, ANDREW BIRD) from the very beginning and spaced out recording over a few month period. This enabled him to naturally bring a different mood or vibe to the material he was working on every ime he entered the studio -- re-evaluating what had been recorded during the previous session and collaborating with Strauch on the direction new songs should take. As a result, "L'Ami du Peuple" sounds markedly different than any album Kinsella has released under the OWEN moniker.
