STUDIO CLASSICIST: DAVE EDMUNDS

You’ve gotta hand it to Dave Edmunds —he knows what he likes. His sound is a little old-fashioned rockabilly, a little country twang, a little Everly Brothers pop and some high-octane blues, all combined and thrown through some echo and reverb if not subjected to a full Spectorsound mix. The resulting style is easily recognizable as Edmunds’ own, if for no other reason than the fact that his music has sounded the same for well over a decade now. It is a sound that’s as timeless as its obvious roots.
