Alabama Shakes Debut Album “Boys & Girls” Out Now!
Alabama Shakes’ debut album Boys & Girls is now available everywhere! Recorded at The Bomb Shelter in Nashville, TN and produced and mixed by the band members, the album is a vibrant fusion of swampy, dirty Southern rock, blues and soul delivered with punk rock fervor. From the heartrending title song to such stomps as “Rise to the Sun,” the album demonstrates the sense of groove and space the band learned from their idols, along with a blistering force and emotion that simply can’t be learned. Available now in the ATO Store / iTunes / Amazon / Official Site and at your local record store.

Jovanotti’s “Italia 1988-2012″ Coming August 7th
ATO is very excited to announce the release of Italia 1988-2012, the first U.S. release from Italian superstar Jovanotti. Rather than a greatest hits collection, Grammy award winning producer Ian Brennan has compiled and remixed what he considers Jovanotti’s most compelling material over the past 25 years. The album also includes four altogether-new tracks: “New York for Life” and “Con La Luce Negli Occhi,” and radical re-workings of “La Porta É Aperta” and “Mezzogiorno”. Stay tuned for more to come!

My American Friends, I am very excited to announce a very special tour with my good friend and musical hero, Joe Henry. Myself and Joe will be sharing the stage with Ross Turner and John Smith in an evening of collaborations and explorations playing songs from my records, Joe’s records, John’s records and indeed other people’s records. I’m very excited to be spending June reinventing old songs and rearranging new ones with these three incredible musicians.
