{"product_id":"vinyl-bingham-ryan-american-love-song-vinyl-lp","title":"American Love Song (Vinyl)","description":"\u003cp\u003eFrom the beginning of his recording career, with \"Mescalito,\" Bingham has defied easy classification. As a rising country star, he ranged from Woody Guthrie-style folk songs and Spanish-language balladry to gritty hard rock. It's all American music; fittingly, he was honored as the Americana Music Association's 2010 Artist of the Year.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003eHe's enjoyed thrilling highs and suffered debilitating lows, sometimes all at once. While his career was taking off – he won both an Oscar and a Grammy for \"The Weary Kind,\" the theme song he wrote for the film \"Crazy Heart\" – he was coping with the tragic deaths of his mother, an alcoholic, and his father, who took his own life.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003eThe losses put Bingham in a dark tunnel, and it took a while to crawl his way out. With the help of his wife, Anna Axster, and some inner soul-searching, Bingham has come back into the light. \"American Love Song,\" the third studio album from the Axster-Bingham indie label (after 2012's \"Tomorrowland\" and 2015's \"Fear and Saturday Night\"), takes all his influences – both musical and experiential – and unites them in Ryan Bingham's best, most fully realized record to date. \u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003eThe new album finds Bingham honing his creativity on two distinct levels, the personal and the cultural. He co-produced it with Charlie Sexton, the superb Austin guitarist who has played for years in Bob Dylan's touring band. \"American Love Song\" was recorded at Arlyn Studios and Public Hi-Fi in Austin with additional recording at Matter Music in Los Angeles.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"SOUTHBOUND","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":40427039523017,"sku":"469358","price":65.99,"currency_code":"NZD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0566\/7120\/7498\/files\/469358-Product-0-I-639020665803363310.jpg?v=1766471378","url":"https:\/\/www.jbhifi.co.nz\/products\/vinyl-bingham-ryan-american-love-song-vinyl-lp","provider":"JB Hi-Fi NZ","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
