Jessica Lee Mayfield- sets album release date

Gritty 18 year old indie/folk sensation Jessica Lee Mayfield has set a date for her debut disc,With Blasphemy So Heartfelt which will be coming out September 16th on Polymer Sounds. Mayfield is coming off of a recent tour with equally gritty southern rockers Lucero and will soon be playin some dates with the Black Keys, who's member Dan Auerbach produced the album and also appeared on it. Other cameos to show up on 'With Blasphemy...' include Scott McMicken from Dr. Dog and Frank McElroy.
Producer Dan Auerbach says of Mayfield, “I think she’s dark and moody in a mysterious way, not unlike Nick Cave and the Bad Seeds.” He adds, “I’m just always really excited to make music with her".
Think Lucinda Williams with more edge and attitude.

Currently you can preview two new tracks off the album on her myspace, "I Can't Lie To You Love" and "Kiss Me Again".
