As a songwriter, Jack Tempchin has had plenty of big hits with the Eagles, Glenn Frey, Emmylou Harris, Glen Campbell, Johnny Rivers and others. But for his new solo album, One More Song, Tempchin preferred a smaller way of doing things.
One More Song is titled after one of the nine new songs on the set, which has previously been recorded by former Eagles’ bassist Randy Meisner and Kate Wolf and performed live by Jackson Browne and Linda Ronstadt. The album also includes a re-recording of Tempchin-penned Rivers hit “Slow Dancing,” while the gentle, reassuring “Song for You” was co-written with Keith Harkin of Celtic Thunder and was inspired by Alex Woodard, creator of the For The Sender music and book initiative.

…to the man and the song,” Tempchin tells Billboard about the follow-up to last year’s Learning to Dance. “I’ve got about four songs on this with bass and drums; The others are just me and a guitar, me and a piano,” he says. “I’m kind of getting back to my musical roots of the coffee house days, where it’s just a guy and a song. It just seemed like the last five, six years I’ve been playing solo instead of with a band, so it’s where I’m at. I go down to the beach and jam with my guitar every day, so that’s how I feel comfortable.”
