Produced by eminent producers Garth Fundis and Gary Nicholson New Shade Of Blue is testament to the breadth of artist/writer Kelley Hunt. There are compelling works written by Hunt, writing collaborations with Gary Nicholson, a Gospel-feel take on Jesse Winchester's "That's What Makes You Strong," her own intense reading of Jim Lauderdale's alt-country "Why Do I Love You", a dramatic re-arrangement of Lennon/McCartney's “The Word” and a raucous duet with Delbert McClinton on "Deal With It". Joining Hunt are a list of a-list studio allstars including drummer Chad Cromwell, bassist Glenn Worf, Hammond B3 player Reese Winans, guitarists Colin Linden and Kenny Greenburg and more.
