[  biography  ]

With dark, creaky slide guitars that echo left to right and loom over the proceedings like the grayest of storm clouds, this album seems an obvious and appropriate soundtrack for these cold and foreboding months.  While this can't be considered a traditional delta blues offering, the roots remain grounded while creative liberties are implemented and left free to shoot off in all directions.  At times eerily quiet, the songs are melodic but not polished, obscured but not disturbing.  The technique here is subtle and consistent, a mix of guitars and percussion that blends perfectly with the quiet vocals and the sincere lyrics, maybe the most traditional aspect of the songs.  Fans of the darker side of the blues will find solace in this collection, as it seems to vividly register a time and place, a drive down a rain drenched dirt road on a pitch black night. - - CDBaby.com Editor's Featured Picks, Biscuit Palace [  <<  ]
