Purchase Queen of Yesterday
Houston Jones is proud to announce  its latest Summerhill Records release,  Queen of Yesterday.  Working once again with 5 time Grammy nominee Cookie Marenco, Queen of Yesterday was recorded live in the studio on two inch tape  with minimal overdubs.   The new CD captures the hotwire energy and telepathic interplay of a live Houston Jones performance in a pristine audio environment that brings the listener almost literally into the studio as the music is being made.  Long time musical shape shifters, with  Queen of Yesterday, Houston Jones struts its Americana roots like never before, from grinding blues to post-bop jazz to raw boned country to the most delicate ballads. A varied and nuanced collection of songs exploring the theme of loss with, by turns, wry humor, exhilaration, anger, quiet reflection and anguish, Queen of Yesterday is Houston Jones’ most sophisticated and ambitious offering to date.
