- When Dawes came in to perform for Acoustic Guitar Sessions recently, they did stripped-down versions of three songs - “Roll with the Punches,” “We’re All Gonna Die,” and “When the Tequila Runs Out,” from their least stripped-down album yet: the bold new We’re All Gonna Die, out today on HUB Records. While in the AG Studio, Dawes front man Taylor Goldsmith talked about songwriting, guitar playing, and how it all comes together in the L.A. band’s nostalgic sounds, which are based on the folk-rock guitars and vocal harmonies of 1970s-era Laurel Canyon. (You’ll be forgiven if you initially confuse these guys for CSN or America in the clip!)
Dawes write great songs. Melodies and words stand on their own, but I dig the new record. I'm 50 years old and I've seen them multiple times live and now my 15 year has finally noticed them. I hope they sell a billion records. They deserve it.
Music is sometimes bigger than personal musical taste. Thanks for seeing it truly. Your record collection is one I'd love to listen to.
This is wonderful. Much prefer these stripped back versions to their album counterparts!
Taylor showing us how well he "rolls with the punches" when he plays the wrong chord at 1:09....
I love this band.
nice ear
I love this band , and I am 61 years young, absolutely love.them not just Taylor but all of them
Going to see Dawes in Glasgow next week and literally cannot wait, one of the best bands arounds IMO, this is pure class, nice take on the new record.
Beautiful music.Fantastic music.Dawes Thank You.
god i miss this sound
I wish they'd release an acoustic version of the album.
Lee looks so good just standing there.
The new album is great. I'm glad to see them try out different sounds. But this is a nice companion to that and a good reminder that their songwriting has stayed consistently impressive.
very nice! the acoustic is so much better then the recorded versions
This is absolutely phenomenal
This is more my "stuf". Prefer this more than the new album recordings.
Best writers of the decade in my humble opinion and a fabulous acoustic, produced and live music.
Love the tune... Also love that guitar strap... Link?
ill sell you mine.
THIS.
nice! like Graham Nash!
NICE
Love all the variations Dawes can put on the same song. I'll admit though, I prefer Wylie's bass to add the bounce and Griff's drums to add the swing. I'm going along for the ride...
Om-28?
What model Martin is this? I have to have one!
0018?
Beautiful song
Anyone know what chords he's using?
I can see the C, F, G, variations. There's a couple in there that I can't get.
Sorry, to specify, the song We're all Gonna Die. Can't find any reliable tabs anywhere!
Anyone tab these? Or know a good spot to find them? I can make out the basic chords but could use some help with the walks and what not
Hey Clayton let me know if you're still interested
Strong evidence that Blake may have got a bit carried away seeking unusual sounds and why the new album sounds overproduced.
Keep listening. It was as much their doing as his, and I think once I got the preconceptions out of my head it start sounding way better. Still great songs- it's just a rock record.
Sean Marshall you are spot on. New album is truly the growth of a gifted constructor and arranger of songs. He reminds me of Jeff Tweedy's 'artistic arc' with Wilco.
I personally loved the recording, but also love how it really comes alive live! the recordings aren't the finished article, Dawes tell another story live and that's what great bands do
Dirtgrub cleaned up.
Note to Dawes: if you visit a guitar magazine, find something for the non guitar players to do. :-)
desert party
Roll with the punches dedicated to Mandy Moore's divorce.
this is dawes, a natural organic sound. please go back to this for any follow up album. ditch blake mills as producer
good and boring!
