2009 release, an all-analog recording that was tracked to 2″ tape, with limited overdubs. Over the course of his three studio albums, Ben Kweller has become known as a top-shelf purveyor of the powerhouse pop song. But on Changing Horses, the 27-year-old Greenville, TX, native has gone back to his roots, saying “Some of the first songs I wrote as a kid, before I got into Punk Rock and underground bands, were Country songs.” Changing Horses (whose title refers not only to taking on a new musical genre, but also to relocating his family to Austin, TX) reflects that period. 10 tracks.
