Alejandro Escovedo: New Album

ALEJANDRO ESCOVEDO’S BIG STATION
DUE JUNE 5 ON FANTASY/CONCORD

Alejandro Escovedo by Todd V. Wolfson

Alejandro Escovedo will release his 11th solo album Big Station June 5, 2012 on Fantasy Records/Concord Music Group.

Produced by Tony Visconti, Big Station finds the ever-evolving Texas rocker highly-charged with spirit and purpose. The album’s hard snap and sharp arrangements recall much of the great music Escvovedo absorbed as it blasted out of AM and FM radios throughout the 60’s and 70’s.

Largely co-written with frequent collaborator Chuck Prophet, the album’s 12 songs bristle with tension and hope as Escovedo fights to keep faith in a changing world and hold onto love.

Big Station follows Escovedo’s critically lauded 2010 album Street Songs of Love which debuted at #1 on the Billboard Heatseekers chart. Earlier this month, Escovedo took SXSW by storm with a slew of stellar performances including two appearances with Bruce Springsteen.
