Haysop - Haysop

Songwriter, Jameson Hubbard put together the first iteration of Haysop in the fall of 2023 to rehearse the collection of songs that would become their debut album. Along with Dan Walker on bass, Joseph Edwards on drums, and Brantley Platt on lead guitar, Hubbard cut Haysop's first record with an ensemble of local talent. Recorded at Taylor Hollingsworth's home studio in Birmingham, the album also features singer-songwriter Janet Simpson and pedal steel guitarist Conor Rector rounding out the songs. These songs distill the sensations of the late, blurry nights and lounging mornings of a budding relationship, as well as the peculiar solitude it can bring-the exhilaration and speed of those early weeks, the push and pull of bringing someone into your life, the whiplash of an argument or a misunderstanding. Together, they offer up an emotional portrait that is at once personal and familiar.
