In March 2019, Regensburg-based songwriter TG Copperfield set off for Nashville, Tennessee, with just a guitar and seven songs in his luggage to record his sixth studio album with producer Caleb Sherman at Cygnus Sound Studios. "Crank it up in Nashville" captures this adventure and the atmosphere of the session in its rawest and most emotional form. Copperfield managed to channel the power of tracks like Babylon Rising, I ain't in it, and Taste into addictive rock 'n' roll earworms. Restless Man and Twosome Lonesome Blue are ballads that probably wouldn't sound so plaintive without the unique Nashville flair. "When the ship goes down" and "By the Riverside" are simply fun and once again demonstrate Copperfield's greatest strength: melodies. This time, Copperfield was helped along by hand-picked guest musicians such as Accept drummer Christopher Williams, session bassist Brandon Roberts from Nashville, and Caleb Sherman on the Hammond B3. In addition to the seven original tracks produced in Nashville, the disc also features four alternative mixes by voodoo blues veteran Dr. Will. Senior Voice of Germany winner Dan Lucas, Nashville-based artist Dan Harrison, and Canadian songwriter Dave McCann all contribute vocals. These remixes reveal even more facets of the Nashville sessions to the listener. A unique document of a unique journey. No pigeonholing!
