MP3 David Massey - Blissful State of Blue
13 MP3 Songs
ROCK: Americana, FOLK: Modern Folk
Details:
"David Massey manages, with his storytelling, to blow away celebrities such as John Prine, James McMurtry, Todd Snider and others that have preceded him . . . a strong candidate to end up at the top of my yearly list . . . Great album!"
- Rootstime (Belgium)
"You like banjo pickin'' in the background, a singer with a likeably gentle voice, songs that tell stories and keep you interested until the last bar? Welcome to David Massey territory. Massey has been compared to the likes of Lucinda Williams, John Prine, Steve Forbert and Todd Snider, but he really has a strong enough identity to stand up for himself . . . In many ways, Massey reminds me of a countrified Al Stewart - his voice has that high, gossamer quality that has been Stewart''s trademark for years. Added to that, his obvious storytelling ability, and you have a great combination." - Comes With A Smile
". . . no other album has probably possessed a more apt title than this one. Music to soundtrack those rapidly approaching winter nights." - Americana UK
