Dan Auerbach And Joe Walsh Collaborate With Their Mutual Mentor - Unsung Ohio Guitar Hero Glenn Schwartz - On His Original "Daughter Of Zion"

Easy Eye Sound has unveiled the latest piece of their upcoming blues anthology Tell Everybody! (out August 11), which pays tribute to Glenn Schwartz - a formative mentor to Easy Eye Sound founder Dan Auerbach, as well as to Rock & Roll Hall of Fame inductee Joe Walsh. The two musicians - along with The Arcs - back the unsung Ohio hero on his original "Daughter Of Zion," which stems from recording sessions at Nashville's Easy Eye Sound Studios just before Schwartz's passing in 2018. For Schwartz, this final chapter collaborating with Auerbach and Walsh - even making an unlikely Coachella debut with them in 2016 - is a fitting last twist in one of music's most unpredictable careers.
