More from Bry Webb

I’m a little bummed that Bry Webb isn’t making his way through the US any time soon on his upcoming tour dates…though maybe he’ll make it my way with some of those Constantines dates. However, I’ve really enjoyed listening to his recent record, Free Will. It’s infinitely slower than his previous workings and in some ways, has the mark of other folk troubadours like Callahan or Beam. If you’re looking for a slow-paced gem of a tune, then spend some time with Bry today.

Another Ditty from Bry Webb

April 11, 2014 nathan.lankford Leave a comment

For those of you that followed around Bry Webb and his old band, The Constantines, then perhaps you, like me, were in love with his voice. It’s one of the most attractive things about his music, though his recent solo work displays a bit of a troubadour magic to boot. This new single from his upcoming record has a bit more of a folk-y front to it, almost to the fact that it would be absolutely such if it weren’t for some of the nuanced touches he adds in. On May 20th you’ll get to hear his new album, Free Will, which comes out via Idee Fixe Records.

Singer-Songwriter Ditty from Bry Webb

March 7, 2014 nathan.lankford Leave a comment

This tune arrived in my mailbox with an endorsement from Feist; whether you agree or not, that’s a ringing endorsement for any musician. But, even more importantly, Bry Webb was one of the men fronting Constantines, one of my favorite Canadian acts. Interestingly, I didn’t expect him to come off as a more spirited version of Bill Callahan, but that’s exactly what I’m feeling here. Is new record, Free Will, is going to be issued by Idee Fixe Records on May 20th. Listening to this has made my day better, like a gem hiding among my SXSW emails. Give this a thorough listen folks.
