Synopsis

Product Description

Kieran Kane is an iconic songwriter and performer and one of the founding artists of the Americana movement. On Somewhere Beyond the Roses, his most recent solo effort and follow up to 2002's Shadows on the Ground", Kane is at the top of his musical game. The stripped down production and unusual instrumentation (including a bass-less quartet held down by Lambchop's Deanna Varagona), complements Kane's writing to chilling effect. His ability to create mini-movies within his songs - check out "Anybody's Game" - prove that Kane is among only a small handful of writers capable of blending traditional roots music with modern themes to create evocative and relevant folk music for the new millenium.

(4 out of 5 stars)

"How is it that we hear many weeks in advance about releases by some marginal "performers" and this cd, I have to stumble across? Here's a heads up of for you. This will be one of the most satisfying and interesting music purchases of your year. The quality of the recording, instrumentation, songwriting, and performance deserves a wider audience. Featuring Baritone sax and banjo, add electric guitar, and "small drums" = the sonic landscape. Why haven't we heard this combination before? It REALLY works. And here's the good news....it is not my favorite Kieran Kane project. Check out his past releases and find your own favorite. They will not dissappoint. For now--if you too are bored with the music that is being pushed by the music industry. For me this is the antidote."
