2011, Ridisculous Records
Kip Boardman's 3rd and most ambitious album to date, The Long Weight, finds the singer/songwriter and frequent Watson Twins collaborator backed by Ray LaMontagne's outstanding Pariah Dog Band; Eric Heywood, Jen Condos, and Jay Bellerose, along with keyboardist Patrick Warren, horn player/arranger David Ralicke and a dream team of first-call singers (Gia Ciambotti, Claire Holley and Kristin Mooney). Earthen and halcyonic, The Long Weight mines the rich musical landscapes of a distinctly American songbook reminiscent of Harry Nilsson, Jimmy Webb and Allen Toussaint.
"Kip Boardman quietly creates music without much fuss or schmoozing. That he raises a voice with the sweet conviction and tonal purity of an angel is extra sonic blessing." --Bliss Bowen
