\n\tEagle-eyed rock fans recognized Jay Buchanan<\/a> as the singer of the Stone Pony house band<\/a> in Springsteen: Deliver Me From Nowhere<\/em>, singing Little Richard and John Lee Hooker songs with Jeremy Allen White\u2019s Bruce. Now, the Rival Sons<\/a> frontman returns to his own music with his debut solo album. Titled Weapons of Beauty<\/em>, the LP arrives Feb. 6.<\/p>\n \n\tThe 10-song project finds Buchanan reuniting with producer Dave Cobb, who oversaw Rival Sons albums like 2019\u2019s Feral Roots<\/a><\/em> and last year\u2019s Darkfighter<\/em>. According to a release, Buchanan wrote the songs that became Weapons of Beauty<\/em> \u201cin the solitude of an underground bunker deep in the Mojave Desert.\u201d That includes \u201cCaroline,\u201d which arrives along with the album\u2019s announcement.<\/p>\n \n\t\u201cI suppose that writing about unquenchable grief allows you a kind of permission to pay respect to those deep chasms in your life without wallowing in them,\u201d Buchanan said of \u201cCaroline\u201d in a statement. \u201cPutting it in a song lets you buy the ticket and take the ride and then move on.\u201d<\/p>\n
