Generationals - Con Law

Generationals Con Law

After the breakup of indie rock outfit The Eames Era, New Orleans natives Grant Widmer and Ted Joyner returned home to form Generationals. Big Easy-based Park the Van Records promptly signed them and released their debut album Con Law on July 21, 2009. Paying loving tribute to influences from a bygone era like Phil Spector, George Martin and Quincy Jones, Eames founder Daniel Black has meticulously produced an album for the group that draws out the resonant sounds of a cherished ‘60s LP. Songs like the horn-laden “Nobody Could Change Your Mind” and the Motown girl-group sensibility of “When They Fight, They Fight,” articulate their modern approach to the best of vintage rock. — Emily Riemer
