Limited Deluxe Vinyl Reissue
“Something of a love letter to New Orleans,” Alec Ounsworth’s Mo Beauty is finally available again on vinyl redesign featuring gatefold, spot gloss varnish, and marble smokey vinyl. The Steve Berlin (Los Lobos) produced “Mo Beauty” features Ounsworth’s trademarks alongside New Orleans finest musicians (George Porter Jr., Stanton Moore, among others). The songs were written in conjunction with CYHSY material but, with this material, Ounsworth tried a different look.
The limited deluxe reissue is being released in the wake of the 20th anniversary of Clap Your Hands Say Yeah, the classic self-titled debut album, and its celebratory 2025 worldwide tour.
“Almost every tune on Mo Beauty equals or betters those on CYHSY's lauded 2005 debut” SPIN
“"That Is Not My Home (After Bruegel)", a set of vignettes each beginning with "me and the wife," set to a wonderful blend of swoony new wave, punchy brass, and torrid string swells, which just might be the best song he's ever done [...] an album that showcases the breadth of his talents” Pitchfork
