Eliot Bronson Talks New Self-Titled Solo Album, Working With Grammy-Nominated Producer Dave Cobb, And More On Music Times Studio Sessions [WATCH]

Atlanta-based Americana musician Eliot Bronson just released his new self-titled album, his third as a solo artist. The record came to life after Bronson sent an unsolicited email to one of Nashville's hottest producers Dave Cobb, whose work with Sturgill Simpson was just nominated for a Grammy. He thought it was a longshot, so when the producer agreed to work with him on the songs he had written, Bronson excitedly went down to Nashville to record for a week in Cobb's home studio. In keeping with the spirit of his favorite Americana records, the 10-track effort was recorded analog to give the songs an atmospheric and timeless feel.

As he says in his biography, the album was a return to his roots after spending years crafting pop-accessible songs. "I spent a long time trying to get away from where I came from," he said, "but it never really felt right. This is the music I've always had in me. This record is me."

While in New York City, Bronson stopped by Music Times for our Studio Sessions to talk about the new record, what it was like working with Dave Cobb, his journey as a musician, and more. He also treated us to two stripped-down performances of "Comin' For Ya North Georgia Blues" and "Time Ain't Nothin'" off the new album.
