Outer Park is back with its 3rd album, "Blood from an Orange," another mashed-up, mixed-up and modernized journey through the diverse styles & sounds that distinguished the dawn of underground radio. Vocalist Chelsea Austin brings a contemporary perspective to the collaboration that guitarist Patrick S. Noonan, bassist James Singleton, and keyboardist Charles Tobermann began over 50 years ago.
In 2013 the founding trio played a gig together, their first meeting in 40 years. The seeds of Outer Park were sown as they considered the question: "What would the music of our shared past sound like now, through the lens of the decades of music we have each played since, and the decades of life we have experienced?" The year 2018 marked the 50th anniversary of their first public gig together as pre-teens. The stars - and schedules - lined up, and after recruiting vocalist Chelsea Austin, "Outer Park" was born. From a recording studio in New Orleans came the 2019 release "1968 (slight return)." In 2021, they released a new 10 song set, "Whole Lotta Orange," again embracing the wild and fresh juxtaposition of folk, rock, jazz, blues, Americana, psychedelic and other styles that were the hallmark of early FM radio (with drummers Jason Marsalis & Justin Peake, and other special guests). The 3rd set arrives Sept. 30 on all the usual digital streaming and download platforms! "Blood from an Orange" spans original and reinterpreted covers, with special guests old and new.
