Nathan Hussey may have chosen Christopher Hitchens as the namesake for his latest album, but it wasn’t the catalytic author’s politics that he drew the most inspiration from. Hussey, best known as the frontman and primary songwriter for Texas-based alternative rock outfit, All Get Out, was more motivated by Hitchens as a man; his intelligence, the veracity with which he supported his beliefs, his constant quest for personal evolution and, most of all, his life story. Hitchens may be a new direction for Hussey, but that’s not to say All Get Out fans won’t enjoy it. Those who love that project will still find the potent lyrics and thoughtful songwriting that drew them to the band in the first place; just through a different lense. As Hussey sees it, the two projects feed off each other, presenting different challenges and making him a better writer. The diversity of approach also allows him to avoid the fatigue of writing in one format all the time. The ability to do a rock record one year and something a bit more low key the next keeps him inspired and allows him to passionately commit to making new music for both projects. That passion and commitment are fully recognizable on this release and are at the core of what make it such a special record. Hitchens is due out January 12, 2018 on Equal Vision Records.
