Synopsis

Product Description
Hey Folks,

It has been four years since the release of The Delmark Sessions! ...Time crawls, don't it?

As the flickerin' neon sign at Vincent's in Wormtown, MA reads- "this is it".

11 bourbon-soaked tunes. Callin' it MADE IN USA.

It is a continued work of Scott Pittman and myself and welcomes Andrew Bergmann on upright bass. Some songs will be famil'ar others may catch you by surprise. They all have their own little quirks and I am real proud of 'em.
-Frank Morey




"Singer-songwriter Frank Morey has never been accused of having a sweet, pretty, angelic sort of voice. The Lowell, MA, native is known for a rough, rugged style. Morey's expressive vocals are as gritty as they are soulful.

The New Englander, who plays acoustic guitar and harmonica, brings a variety of influences to the table. He has often been compared to early Tom Waits, and his other influences range from Bob Dylan and Leonard Cohen to the late Chicago blues giant Howlin' Wolf. In the northeast part of the United States, Morey has tended to fare well among fans of anti-folk. Morey isn't anti-folk per se - he has a more classic type of sound - but like the anti-folk crowd, he likes his folk-rock with a tough hard edge and a lot of guts.

Morey, whose live performances typically include both covers and original material, has been playing the Massachusetts club scene since the 90's. His first album, Father John's Medicine, was released on the Indigo Hamlet label in 2000 and was followed by the sophomore album, Cold in Hand. In 2002, Morey recorded his third album, the Delmark Sessions." - Alex Henderson, All Music Guide
