BJL&H elevate their game to another level with 11 new songs that offer more diverse and contemporary stylings than its predecessor, 'Tell 'Em What Your Name Is!'
'Scandalous' was produced by Jim Eno of Spoon, who also produced the Black Joe Lewis & The Honey Bears' celebrated 2009 debut, 'Tell 'Em What Your Name Is!' - which featured a young band's modern and gritty take on classic American funk, soul, rock and blues.
On 'Scandalous', Black Joe Lewis & the Honeybears elevate their game to another level with 11 new songs that offer more diverse and contemporary stylings than its predecessor. Gospel punk burner "You Been Lyin'" (featuring The Relatives) fits squarely alongside the country blues of "Messin'" and the Stax-meets-Stones soul of Solomon Burke's "Since I Met You Baby." The raw funk creeper "She's So Scandalous" stands out as an album highlight.
