jeff gutteridge & the black aces

welcome to dark country

don't go alone....

 

“Dark Country” is the debut album from Lindsay ON singer / songwriter Jeff Gutteridge 

Recorded entirely by Jeff in his studio, “Dark Country” is an 8 song showcase of his diverse songwriting.  Rock, Folk , Alt country and Americana  it’s all here full of inspired lyrics , soaring melodic hooks and moody sonic landscapes … 

Jeff simply follows song where it wants to go. 

But what or where is “Dark Country”?  Jeff says to think of it like “Hotel California” :

“It’s a symbolic place more than a concrete brick and mortar place.  It’s the dark part of your soul.  It’s that place you go to take a spiritual journey.  An awakening.  A place to discover yourself, it’ll be a different experience for each person and it’s the place you’ll be taken when you listen to this record front to back”. 

The album features the singles “Sometimes You Know The Truth” a song about a relationship on the verge of meltdown, "Take Me Home" about a dream in which Jeff had a long conversation with his late mother and the jailbreak revenge story “I Got Lost”.  

You may get lost too, but it’s okay to lose yourself in Dark Country… in fact it’s encouraged.  

Jeff will be bringing “Dark Country” to a town near you in 2026, solo or with his band “The Black Aces”

… but don’t go alone.  

For fans of :

Ryan Adams , Jason Isbell, City & Colour, Brian Fallon , Noel Gallagher
