Cuff the Duke - Union

When Cuff the Duke released Morning Comes last fall they noted that it was the first part of 2 albums to be released. Today they announced the second half of the project and the album is called Union. Here is what Cuff the Duke has to say about it.

Cuff The Duke is excited to announce details of their new album, Union, which will be released in Canada on October 2nd on Paper Bag Records.  As promised, Union is the second part of a two part album project that stared with the release of Morning Comes late last year.  The two albums relate lyrically and visually. A number of the songs on the new album act as a response to the songs from Morning Comes. Union's 'Rise Above' relates to 'Standing on the Edge' and 'Something For Free' relates to 'Time Is Right'. Basia Bulat guests on album stand-outs 'Side By Side' and 'Stay'.

"On Union, we moved away from our usual-sounding song structures, rock solos and harmonies by adding more sonic textures," says the band's Wayne Petti. "Morning Comes was more acoustic-based, this album is more electric-based. Instead of trying to find the perfect tone, it was more about exploring interesting sounds."
