"Champions of Red Wine" turns up on Brill Bruisers, the sixth album by Canadian indie rock band The New Pornographers, from 2014. A.C. Newman wrote the words and music and co-produced it, John Collins produced and mixed it with David Carswell, and Kurt Dahle and Howard Redekopp chipped in production work as well.
Newman framed Brill Bruisers as a celebration record, the sound of a man who had come through hard times and found nothing left dragging him down. The album debuted at No. 13 on the Billboard 200 and made the shortlist for the 2015 Polaris Music Prize.
