The Hacienda Brothers - Arizona Motel

Arizona Motel is an unexpected memorial to The Hacienda Brothers' lead singer and original member Chris Gaffney, who sadly passed away on 17th April.

The album title reflects the fact that The Hacienda Brothers originated, recorded and wrote the majority of their songs in Tucson, Arizona, even though the band all lived in California.

The sessions for Arizona Motel were done in two parts. The first was last September in Nashville during the Americana Music Conference, with legendary producer Dan Penn again at the helm recording four new original songs.

In the studio, Penn put his classic touch on the country soul gem Ordinary Fool and captured the incredible honky-tonk ballad I Still Believe.

Several of these new recordings showcase the signature tight Hacienda Brothers sound. Gaffney's soulful singing can be heard throughout Arizona Motel but is especially highlighted on both Soul Mountain and Divorce Or Destroy.
