“Big Bear In The Sky, it’s a psychedelic romp through the Mi’kmaq legend of the giant she-bear better known as the constellation Ursula Major. It’s a little heavier music than what I’m known for but it’s as if Johnny Horton was fronting The Sonics on a balcony stage while archers launch flaming arrows across the crowd.” —Chuck Mead

 

Mead has been upending expectations and walking the line between hardcore country music and raucous rock ’n’ roll for the better part of 25 years. As a member of the alternative country music quintet BR5-49 in the early 1990s, Mead fused rock ’n’ roll excitement with the soul of the Music City’s honky tonk heritage, sparking the rebirth of Nashville’s Lower Broadway music scene. Over the course of the late ’90s and the early 21st century, he recorded seven albums with BR5-49 and spread the gospel of neo-traditional country music around the world, garnering the band a CMA Award for Best International Touring Act and three Grammy nominations.

 

The Single and Album was recorded in Memphis at Sam Phillips Recording and produced by Matt Ross-Spang hailed by Rolling Stone as “one of the most trusted arbiters of the modern Memphis sound,” who has worked with a who’s-who of roots artists, John Prine, Jason Isbell and Margo Price. He notched the Grammy for engineering Isbell’s The Nashville Sound (as he did for 2015’s Something More Than Free); co-produced Price’s stunning debut, Midwest Farmer’s Daughter, and sophomore effort All American Made; and engineered Prine’s The Tree of Forgiveness.
