Briscoe with The Takes

If Briscoes first album was a coming-of-age soundtrack set against the Texas Hill Country, then Heat of July is the sound of a fully-formed duo chasing a broader horizon. Inspired by marriage, landscapes, and cross-country tours that took the band across America, these new songs were written on the road, as eclectic and evocative as the terrain unfolding just outside the van's windshield. Once again, Briscoe teamed up with Grammy-nominated producer Brad Cook to bring the songs to life, collaboratively creating a record that expands Briscoes folk-rock sound in all directions. There are bigger arrangements, sharper vocal harmonies, and enough top-tier guest musicians including members of Houndmouth, Hiss Golden Messenger, Bon Iver, Mipso, and Watchhouse to form their own supergroup. The result is a cinematic, widescreen version of American roots music, created by two lifelong friends who've learned to distill the thrill of the open road and the challenges of growing up into an ever-evolving soundtrack.
