The success of 'Beyond The Sun' has been buoyed by positive press coverage that has included a feature in The Telegraph as well as a variety of high profile television performances and/or interviews on shows such as BBC Breakfast, ThisMorning, SomethingForTheWeekend and TheAlanTitchmarshShow.
On 'Beyond The Sun',
Chris Isaak pays tribute to the glory days of Memphis'SunStudio and the visionary artists who started out there under the guidance of Sam Phillips.
The self-produced album was recorded mostly at the historic SunStudio with his long-term band; RowlandSalley (bass), KenneyDaleJohnson (drums), HershelYatovitz (guitar), ScottPlunkett (piano) and RafaelPadilla (percussion). The album also features a guest performance by the
Memphis legend 'Cowboy' Jack Clement, a songwriter, musician and producer who worked with the majority of the Studio's biggest names.
Isaak magically recaptures the transformative brilliance of the classic sides cut by greats such as ElvisPresley, JohnnyCash, RoyOrbison, CarlPerkins and JerryLeeLewis at Sun with Phillips, while also getting down to his own deeply rooted musical identity.
