This fabulous acoustic recording sets standards, both musically and audiophile. This beautifully crafted project boasts detailed arrangements performed with a calm, casual groove best described as hypnotic. Theessink doesn’t play traditional blues here instead, he deftly references the genre as one of many stops on his global trek through the Delta, into backwoods folk, and onward to Africa. Such magnificent combinations of seemingly divergent elements drive this splendid album to spine-tingling heights. His lovely Piedmont picking on “May the Road” is offset by harmonies that shift the tune halfway across the world. Theessink has composed a stirring set of songs that seamlessly fuse his unplugged strumming, sonorous voice, and threepiece band into the very definition of laid-back comfort. On this acoustic project, Theessink again features the talents of three African vocalists, and the stirring results suggest Ry Cooder’s early work and, perhaps more directly, Paul Simon’s Graceland.

Nobunny played at Third Man Records in Nashville, Tennessee on May 21, 2010, in a live concert that was recorded to analogue tape and released on vinyl by Third Man Records.

While on stage, Nobunny dresses (and undresses) in a bunny mask that is often accompanied by other odd stage-attire choices, such as raw meat, weaves, ball gags, firecrackers, panties, knee pads and coats made of trash. ![]() His last LP, Secret Songs, was released on Goner Records towards the end of 2013. His second official LP, "First Blood", was released by Goner Records in September 2010. It was re-released with 1-2-3-4 Go! Records in 2009 along with a second album, Raw Romance, released by Burger Records. His debut LP, Love Visions, was home recorded and released in 2008 on Bubbledumb Records to positive reviews.
