Aaron Skiles is still riding high on the critical praise heaped on his recently released album Wreckage From the Fire (April 2022). The album was co-produced and written with Matt Patton of the Drive-By-Truckers and recorded at Patton's well-known studio, Dial Back Sound, in Water Valley, MS. The album received an 8/10 from Uncut magazine and was on several of last year's 'Best Of' lists.
Whistle Past the Grave follows a similar raw, rocking tone as his previous release. "I do think that this record is a logical follow-up to my last record," Skiles acknowledges. "I consulted with Patton on some of the record sequencing details and he told me that Whistle Past The Grave is 'pretty rocking, still raw' which is exactly what I was going for."
Co-produced with the Bay Area's Ben Bernstein (who also engineered), it again features the incredible lead guitar work of Taylor Hollingsworth (Conor Oberst and the Mystic Valley Band, Dead Fingers), along with an assortment of other talented musicians.
