SUMMARY:An Evening With Nelson
DESCRIPTION:The Siren is please to present an acoustic evening of story telling and #1 billboard musical hits with the Nelson Brothers! \nGunnar Nelson and Matthew Nelson\, twin sons of Ricky Nelson–and grandsons of Ozzie and Harriet Nelson–enjoyed enormous success as Nelson. Their 1990 album\, After the Rain was released on Geffen’s DGC label on June 26 of that year and within three months\, its first single\, “(Can’t Live Without Your) Love and Affection\,” went to #1 on the Billboard Hot 100 on September 29\, 1990. \n\nThe brothers\, born September 20\, 1967\, are turning 50 this year. They were 18 years-old when their father died at just 45 in a plane crash on December 31\, 1985. \nFun Fact: Ricky Nelson had the first #1 hit ever\, on the Hot 100 \nFive years later\, the then-22-year-olds were on top of the music world with that first hit\, one of four huge singles to emerge from the album. The title track hit #6\, “More Than Ever” peaked at #14 and “Only Time Will Tell” reached #28. The album went on to sell more than three million copies in the U.S. and another two million overseas. \nAfter the Rain has been remastered and will be released on 180g vinyl on September 29 at the band’s website\, and at retail as a limited-edition collector’s item on the audiophile vinyl reissue label\, Friday Music. The package will include expanded liner notes and the Nelsons’ comments on each track. Pre-order is available here. \nFor the brothers\, the vinyl release of After the Rain makes up for years of frustration at the sound of the original album. “It was a real gift when we got that phone call about remastering\,” says Gunnar. “For the first time\, we got to hear the album the way we first did on those big monitors at Cherokee Studios\, where we recorded it. This is how it’s supposed to sound.” \nThe original album was the result of the Nelsons putting in almost two years of work on recording demos. Matthew explains: “After years of failed collaborations and rejections by labels in LA and New York we aimed at re-focusing on songwriting and targeting A&R legend John Kalodner and Geffen Records to help. He put us through two years of writing and demos\, but still didn’t sign us. We were at the end of our rope. Living out of our car and down to our last $16 in a joint savings account. \n“Our managers didn’t want us to do it\, but we just walked into Kalodner’s office and played him ‘Love and Affection.’ He said: ‘That is what I have been waiting for!’” \nThe brothers hooked up with a down-on-his-luck singer/songwriter named Marc Tanner\, who proved to be\, in Gunnar’s words\, “the third Nelson brother.” With Kalodner finally agreeing to let the group use many of their original demos as the basis of the record\, the brothers enlisted their live band to record on the album with them\, which included guitarist Brett Garsed\, keyboardist Paul Mirkovich\, drummer Bobby Rock and multi-instrumentalist Joey Cathcart.
