Universally hailed as a thrilling new figure in music for his edgy, lo-fi debut ‘The Headphone Masterpiece’ back in 2002, Cody ChesnuTT is a soul troubadour whose frank, socially conscious ruminations on life continue to challenge popular notions of what modern soul music can look and sound like.

‘Landing On A Hundred’, Cody’s second full-length album, marks his return to the music game after a period of family-man retreat and reflection that did a world of good for him after his meteoric rise to near fame.

The title is a reference to the slang saying “Keeping it one hundred,” or telling the whole truth, and for lovers of true blue Southern soul this new album is a must-have – the rhythm tracks recorded with a ten-piece band in the Memphis-based Royal Studios, the sonic birthplace of some of the deepest works by soul and blues luminaries like Al Green, Buddy Guy and Ike & Tina Turner.

Topics on ‘Landing On A Hundred’ cover lots of grown-up business: a man’s road to redemption after years of womanizing and crack addiction; the power and labour of slow-burning marital love that eclipses mere material expressions of affection. Keeping it truthful is ultimately what matters most in Cody’s songs.

Available as a double vinyl with MP3 coupon.
