Now available on all streaming platforms, the Old Bear Records release showcases Lovelace’s unmistakable Joni Mitchell-meets-Diana Krall vocal styling atop a breezy classic jazz groove.
Proclaiming “He is Truth above the feelings/Author of the meaning/Beginning and the Ending/The Painter and the Frame,” “You Can’t Put God In A Box” was penned and co-produced by Lovelace. Executive produced by Anthony Hoisington (Brothers McClurg) and co-produced by Wayne Haun (Celine Dion), the single features contributions from some of Nashville’s first call session players, including Jason Webb (keys), Scott Williamson (drums), and Danny O’Lannerghty (bass).
