Robert Jon and The Wreck Debut Extended Live Version of “Hey Hey Mama”
Southern roots rockers Robert Jon and The Wreck have released an extended live version of “Hey Hey Mama,” a fan favourite that will be featured on their first-ever live DVD ‘Live At The Ancienne Belgique.’
Southern roots rockers Robert Jon and The Wreck have released an extended live version of “Hey Hey Mama,” a fan favourite that will be featured on their first-ever live DVD Live At The Ancienne Belgique, out 4/21 via Joe Bonamassa’s Journeyman Records. “Hey Hey Mama” was initially on the Good Life Pie (2016) album, which featured Kris Butcher on guitar and Dave Pelusi on bass.
Recalls frontman Robert Jon Burrison:
“It’s always been a common selection in the live set, featuring vocal harmonies in the chorus and tons of space for trading and improvising licks. With the addition of Henry and Warren in 2017, the song evolved and took on a new life. This live version features a fuzzy guitar solo as the intro and an extended, psychedelia-influenced outro jam.”
Recorded at a sold-out show at the Ancienne Belgique in Brussels, Belgium, on June 29th, 2022, Live At The Ancienne Belgique captures the Wreck in the midst of their longest-ever tour – 67 performances in 75 days across nine countries. The tour had been postponed for nearly two years due to the pandemic, so by the time the band hit the stage of the Ancienne Belgique, 50+ performances into the tour, they were a well-oiled machine ready to blow the roof off the place. The night was nothing less than spectacular, featuring a setlist that spanned the last decade of their prolific career, from their 2015 debut to their 2023 release.
The band’s new EP One Of A Kind, out now on all digital platforms, received rave reviews around the world and helped catapult the band’s awareness to new heights. Featuring material produced by GRAMMY-Award winners Don Was (Bonnie Raitt, The Stones, John Mayer) and Dave Cobb (Chris Stapleton, Brandi Carlile, Blackberry Smoke, Rival Sons), One Of A Kind showcases Robert Jon & The Wreck’s wide range and dynamic sound, from the instant rock & roll classic “Come At Me” and the captivating, Americana-infused “Who Can You Love,” to the outstanding riff-driven roots rock track “Pain No More.”
Robert Jon & The Wreck will return to the road next month, opening up for Blackberry Smoke. For more information and to purchase tickets, visit https://robertjonandthewreck.com.
