In Austin, TX, a city known
for its community of superb singer-songwriters, the hottest rising
talent in that realm is a lanky fellow by the name of Damon Bramblett.
And don't just take our word for it. Ask such distinguished fellow
Austin artists as Kelly Willis, Sara Hickman, and Bruce and Charlie
Robison, all of whom have recorded Bramblett's songs.
With his eponymously-titled debut, Damon Bramblett emerges to
prove why his peers and growing legion of Texas fans find his material
so compelling. Produced by Lloyd Maines, the Lone Star State's premier
roots music producer, Damon Bramblett is a musically spare yet melodically
sumptuous collection of vivid and eloquent songwriting. Think Johnny
Cash singing the picturesque songs of Ray Davies, and you get a
hint of Bramblett's musical touchstones, all of which feed into
his own distinctive mode of expression. With his authoritative voice
and knack for creating virtual mini-movies in song, Bramblett is
poised to enter the pantheon of eminent Texan musical talents. |
