Search - Karl Valentine :: Hard Road

Karl teams up again with Joel Tipke to explore the sharp edges of rock, blues and folk. In twists and turns, Karl explores living on both coasts of the United States....the ones who are left and the ones who let go. The pining for people and places, and the political and moral outrage that has followed 9/11, Hurricane Katrina and society's retreat into a collective apathy that has fueled some hair spliting guitar solos by one of the most talented guitarists in the Pacific Northwest. All of the above is sometimes neatly, sometimes coursely, forged in the crucible of rock, blues, jazz and folk.
