Lost Dog Street Band - The Magnolia Sessions

The Magnolia Sessions by Lost Dog Street Band captures the raw and intimate essence of their music in a live, outdoor recording. Performed by Benjamin Tod and Ashley Mae beneath a magnolia tree on a humid Nashville evening, this album was recorded on May 25, 2021, with all vocals and instruments captured in a single session. The natural atmosphere adds a layer of authenticity, with the ambient sound of the surroundings complementing their heartfelt performance.

Engineered by Dan Emery at Black Matter Mastering, the recording uses high-quality equipment like AKG-C414 B ULS microphones and a homemade binaural mannequin to enhance the warmth and depth of the sound. Released on 150-gram black vinyl with an insert, The Magnolia Sessions is a must-have for fans of stripped-down, emotional folk music that connects deeply with its audience. This record is a beautiful testament to the band’s artistry and the power of raw, live performance.
