Search - Tom Freund :: Copper Moon

On Cooper Moon, Freund takes listeners on a captivating noctural trip down Americana?s lonesome highways and back alleys ? from the Stonesian funky rock?n?roll of "Mercury" to the jazzy, Tom Waits-meets-Joe Henry vibe of "Comfortable In Your Arms," before concluding with the sublime Jackson Browne-like ballad "New Moon Of The 7th Sun." A sought-out standup bassist, the talented, versatile Freund plays most of the stringed instruments as well as piano on Copper Moon. He also receives support from some terrific musicians. Matt Johnson (Jeff Buckley, Rufus Wainwright) and Michael Jerome (Richard Thompson, Blind Boys Of Alabama) share drum duties and X?s D.J. Bonebrake plays the vibes. The Wallflowers? Ben Peeler provides some astounding electric and acoustic lap steel playing, while renowned producer/arranger Jerry Yester (Tom Waits) contributes a string arrangement.
