Synopsis

Product Description
In the self-titled release, Blair Combest, folk seems to stumble into country, country seems to ooze into folk lines and in the end, there is no genre really to speak of, only the music, reminiscing of tender women, the ache of the rural life and other distilled gems of beauty that infuse everyday life. Blair Combest weaves a subtle desperation with a sense of urgency and "what the hell" approach as if the manic rage of the heart could only be heard in a whisper. While there are echoes of Mississippi and Memphis and deep Appalachian questioning, one of the most powerful nuances in his music is the unstoppable momentum driving these pictures, these stories, these frozen frames of life in motion. With a voice that is both half falling apart and half picking itself up, this man's songwriting is like a big-wheel pushing a semi; there's something simple and playful behind a thundering, ground-shaking experience.
