The Continuum Project is the fourth studio album by Canadian country music artist Lindsay Ell. Released on May 25, 2018, by Stoney Creek Records, the album was co-produced by Ell and Kristian Bush.[1][2] The album is a track-by-track cover of John Mayer's 2006 album, Continuum. Recorded as a "homework" assignment before working on her debut label-supported album, The Project (2017), the record was released due to fan demand.[3]
Writing for Forbes, Brittany Hodak wrote that The Continuum Project is a "creative, nuanced and refreshing take on [Continuum], with several standout performances both musically and vocally."[4] Matt Bjorke of Roughstock called the album a "wonderful tribute to one of [Ell's] musical heroes," and praised both Ell's guitar-playing skills and artistic expression.[5]
Commercial performance
The Continuum Project sold 1,100 copies in the United States in its first week.[6] The album debuted and peaked at number 28 on the Billboard Top Independent Albums chart.[7]
Promotion
Ell filmed music videos for two of the album's tracks – "I Don't Trust Myself (With Loving You)" and "Dreaming with a Broken Heart" – both of which were directed by Brian Vaughan.[8][9]
