Beth Hart is as real as it gets. At a time when other musicians polish their songs, airbrush their image, conceal their blemishes, deny their age and bury their darkest secrets, this is one artist who throws down her cards and invites you to either walk or love her anyway. And with War In My Mind, this Grammy-nominated talent has never served herself up so raw, on a record that embraces her merits and flaws, channels her bittersweet headspace and spins gold from her demons. “More than any record I’ve ever made, I’m more open to being myself on these songs,” Beth explains. “I’ve come a long way with healing, and I’m comfortable with my darknesses, weirdnesses and things that I’m ashamed of – as well as all the things that make me feel good.”

Beth Hart makes one hell of an entrance. It’s May 4th, 2018, and the Royal Albert Hall is in blackout. As a sell-out crowd holds its breath in the darkness, a lone figure appears from the shadows, and the opening line of As Long As I Have A Song in that unmistakable voice is heard. For the next two hours, Beth will hold you spellbound, as she plays over 20 songs spanning her entire career. On November 30, the show will be released on CD, triple vinyl, DVD and blu-ray via Mascot Label Group/Provogue Records.

Beth Hart is on fire. Right now, the Grammy-nominated singer/songwriter is riding a creative tidal wave, firing out acclaimed albums, hooking up with the biggest names in music and rocking the house each night with that celebrated burnt-honey voice. In 2016, the headline news is Beth’s latest album, Fire On The Floor (out 14 October on Provogue/Mascot Label Group): a release that even this fiercely self-critical artist describes as “pretty frickin’ good”.

Better Than Home is the seventh solo studio album by American singer-songwriter Beth Hart. Hart’s husband and her manager convinced her to work with the production team of Rob Mathes and Michael Stevens, whom she had met when she performed at the Kennedy Center Honors in 2012. Hart had worked with Kevin Shirley for her last three albums, but she was persuaded to try a different team and go a different direction. The production team challenged Hart to leave behind the darker themes and to “write more about my joy and what I believe in and what my love is.” Hart was pushed to write songs that came from a different source, from when she was happy or having a good time. One song on the album, “Tell Her You Belong to Me”, took her a year and a half to write.

Not so surprising to learn that Beth Hart is taking on the Led Zeppelin monument in an entire album, after shielding her concerts so much with covers of Whole Lotta Love. Slash had even joined him in 2010. Rare are those who can rub themselves into Robert Plant’s voice without looking pale. But the Californian is far from being one of them and Rob Cavallo understood it very quickly when he heard him improvising on Led Zep, during recording sessions for his latest album War In My Mind (2019). The American producer at the head of Warner already had the idea of an album, driven by sound engineer Doug McKean with handpicked musicians: Tim Pierce on guitar (Bruce Springsteen, Tina Turner), Chris Chaney (Rob Zombie, Slash) on bass, Jamie Muhoberac (Bob Dylan, Rolling Stones) on keyboards and drummer Dorian Crozier (Celine Dion, Joe Cocker). This tribute therefore begins very strongly with Beth’s favorite, Whole Lotta Love, on which she excels, then aligns the blockbusters of the Page and Plant repertoire: Kashmir, Stairway To Heaven, Black Dog … If the flashy and massive orchestration signed Dave Campbell can leave more than one on the tile – the purists first –, this tribute proves that Beth Hart, who finds in the airship blues the perfect ground of expression for her hoarse and powerful voice, at the crossroads of a Janis Joplin and of an Aretha Franklin, remains far too underestimated.
