Billy If you ve ever lost someone close to you, had the experience of going through their things and uncovering parts of their life you didn t know about or discovered unfinished projects they were working on, you might find an inkling of your experience in Jody White s. His father singer-songwriter Tony Joe White passed away in 2018. After, he found a bunch of Tony Joe s unreleased, unfinished songs. We talked to the younger White and his collaborator Dan Auerbach on how they brought new life to the songs that compose Tony Joe White s post-humous album, Smoke From The Chimney.

Tony Joe White: Smoke From the Chimney

7 May 2021 Tony Joe White has always sung in a low growl that made him sound like an older man. Even as a 20-something-year old back in the 1960s when he crooned classic self-penned tunes like “Polk Salad Annie” (with the immortal line, “Gator’s got your granny, chomp chomp”) and “Rainy Night in Georgia”, White sounded like a grizzled musical veteran.

After Tony Joe White died, his son took to the archives.  He dug through a Franklin storage unit, finding boxes of reel-to-reel tapes with hundreds of demos from White s five-decade career as an enigmatic swamp-rock singer-songwriter.  My dad didn t have a record deal from 78 until the 90s, but he had a home studio  which was a dangerous combination, said son-manager Jody White.
