North 61 Records & Productions LLC presents “Reclamation”, the debut CD of 11 original blistering blues songs by The Vincent Hayes Project. Reclamation has spent two consecutive months on the Living Blues Top 25 Chart in both June & July 2010, and twelve consecutive weeks to date on the National Roots Music Chart. Since its release in March 2010, the disc has received airplay on over 200 stations world wide, quickly becoming a favorite of DJ’s and fans alike. On July 4, it was also added to the playlist of the “Blues Deluxe” program, which is syndicated on over 100 U.S. stations. In September 2010, Reclamation was added to the playlist on B.B. King's Bluesville's "Picks To Click", on Sirius/XM Radio Channel 74.
In the fall of 2009, at the referral of 2010 BMA nominee Greg Nagy, the band enlisted Grammy winning producer/engineer Glenn Brown (Greg Nagy, Root Doctor, Spinal Tap, Larry McCray) to help them record “Reclamation.” Glenn also owns the infamous “Muscle Shoals” 1978 8098 Neve mixing board, which is the very console used on legendary recordings by Bob Dylan, The Allman Brothers, Eric Clapton, and countless others. The result is a big, warm sound, reminiscent of those early analogue Muscle Shoals recordings. Watch the new short movie by Stonehill Multimedia and North 61 on our multimedia page.
“Reclamation” is a blues record that will take you into the trenches of the tumbling Michigan economy, where the once thriving auto-industry has been laid to waste, and given rise to the highest unemployment rates in the U.S. This is what it feels like to live the life of a working blues man in the 21st century modern world of Middle America. This is blues from the heart, played with passion, and written with honesty, depth and wit.
