Thieves is the new album from Alex Dupree, his first album since 2017’s You Winsome, You Lonesome.
Thieves features a cast of LA musicians, including Max Knouse, Aaron Stern, Stephen Hodges (Tom Waits, Mavis Staples), Buck Meek (Big Thief), and Tiffanie Lanmon (Mirror Travel), alongside regular Dupree collaborators Aisha Burns and Bill McCullough (Knife in the Water). Michael Krassner’s experience arranging for film and his deep attention to songcraft set a perfect stage for Dupree’s lyric storytelling. Old-Hollywood string crescendos and delicate acoustic phrases pass in and out of focus behind the vocals, a lush backdrop for the songs’ stark dialogue.
