This is the best day ever!
Ending a 16-year hiatus since its last installment, the most mythical, longest running rock n roll mixtape odyssey in existence, Desert Sessions will return this October with the most ambitious entries yet in its expansive and elusive catalog: Vols. 11 & 12 (a/k/a respectively as Arrivederci Despair and Tightwads & Nitwits & Critics & Heels) is available NOW.
Vols. 11 & 12 were recorded mostly in a six-day span in December 2018 at Rancho De La Luna studios in Joshua Tree, CA, with Queens of the Stone Age founder and Desert Sessions ringleader/producer Joshua Homme enlisting a cast of players including:
- Billy Gibbons (ZZ Top)
- Stella Mozgawa (Warpaint)
- Jake Shears (Scissor Sisters)
- Mike Kerr (Royal Blood)
- Carla Azar (Autolux, Jack White)
- Les Claypool (Primus)
- Matt Sweeney
- Matt Berry (What We Do in the Shadows, Toast of London)
- Libby Grace
- Töôrnst Hülpft
And the first video for ‘Crucifire’ with Mike “Devil May Not” Kerr from Royal Blood on lead vox comin’ in hot at a minute ’45:
