The video was recorded on 12th February 2020 at Théâtre de Gascogne, Mont de Marsan, completely unplugged and live. With this new arrangement, the intimacy and the strength of the Brothers In Ideals, are reinforced by the violin and cellos, which seamlessly add another depth and another sonic layer to the track.
Brothers In Ideals – Unplugged Live 2020, offers a great initial look into the whole album. The Organic Farmers Season – Unplugged Live 2020, shines a new light on the band known for having their fingers in the electric socket. The album features the Neil Young cover My My, Hey Hey (Out of the Blue), alongside a host of The Inspector Cluzo classics.
The album was produced by engineer/mixer/producer Vance Powell (Jack White, Seasick Steve, Raconteurs, Stapleton, Clutch) & the mastering engineer Pete Lyman (Chris Stapleton, Tom Waits…..) , two royalties in the world of warm and woody analogic, gave the best of themselves to the two Gascons. Motivated not by ambition, not by compassion: simply because these songs deserved this kind of unruly respect, this messed up elegance, this American instinct. For these acoustic songs to make so much noise, their discreet science of sound was critical. It allowed two Gascon boys to highjack the spirit of unplugged recordings and turn it into filtered mayhem, tamed but not domesticated. There is plenty to hear, within the gaps, in these versions”
