Decor

Decor is a London based record label, management company and European booking agency run by Chris Metzler. Started in the year 1998 out of the Setanta Records office before going it’s own way in late 2001.

Country soul from Portland, Oregon.
The Delines are a country soul band hailing from the vibrant music scene of Portland, Oregon. Led by the captivating vocals of Amy Boone and backed by an exceptional group of musicians, their unique sound blends elements of classic country with soulful melodies and heartfelt lyrics.
Formed in 2012, The Delines quickly gained recognition for their emotionally charged performances and timeless songwriting. Their debut album "Colfax" received critical acclaim and established them as one of the most exciting acts in Americana music.

The second album from the Delines - it took three years to finish while vocalist Amy Boon (The Damnations, TX) recovered from a bad car accident. The players are keyboard/horn player Cory Gray, pedal steel player Tucker Jackson (The Minus 5) and a bunch of Richmond Fontaine band members namely Sean Oldham, Freddie Trujillo and of course novelist Willy Vlautin. All ten tracks are written by Willy Vlautin, recorded in Portland, Oregon and produced by John Morgan Askew.

A Fender Rhodes kicks in and you know you’re in a safe place. It’s lush resonant tones set the scene, a lap steel slides in to introduce a laconic but oh-so dulcet tune. Crying guitars present tales of broken hearts. Smooth soulful vocals and the sweet golden tones of a brass section complete the mellowest album this year so far.
