MP3 Rick Spreitzer - From the Bottom
11 MP3 Songs
FOLK: Modern Folk, COUNTRY: Country Folk
Details:
Rick Spreitzer beats a guitar like an old man cleaning a dirty rug. He sings like nobody’s angel. But if you spend any time with his songs, you’re struck by the poetry that sleeps within his lines… battered and blue, slung from a bruised chest and a sideways grin.
“There is a certain romance in seeking ballast through the bad luck and blue changes. For me, that is what the process of songwriting seems largely about. I try to carve out songs that have pieces of poetry, real emotional gravity and a sense of space. My aim is to write songs that really draw the listener in.”
Rick has three self-released CDs which are gaining airplay on Americana, College, and Alt-Country stations both stateside and abroad. His latest, From the Bottom, was just released in March, 2006 and follows Dirt Tracks (2004) and Meanderthal (2002).
