Shooter Jennings And The Werewolves Of Los Angeles Do Zevon Out Now
(BHM) 3x GRAMMY Award-winner Shooter Jennings is celebrating the songs of the late, great Warren Zevon with Shooter Jennings And The Werewolves Of Los Angeles Do Zevon, an all-new live album arriving today via BCR Media. The album was recorded in concert at Monterey, CA's Rebels & Renegades Music Festival and features wall-to-wall Zevon favorites.
Shooter Jennings and the Werewolves of Los Angeles - which includes multi-instrumentalist Brian Whelan (Dwight Yoakum, Jim Lauderdale) alongside longtime Jennings collaborators drummer Jamie Douglass, bassist Ted Russell Kamp, and guitarist John Schreffler - made a memorable debut at 2022's Rebels & Renegades Music Festival in Monterey, CA, highlighted by a rousing rendition of Zevon's timeless anthem of desperation, "Lawyers, Guns and Money," streaming now on YouTube following its exclusive premiere via Rolling Stone.
