Tall praise from Uncut's chief pen-wielder John Mulvey

I had the pleasure of finally meeting Uncut Magazine’s John Mulvey back in March.  I’ve enjoyed both his writing for Uncut AND his tremendous support over the past couple of years, and it was truly a pleasure to stand and talk to him for an hour or so after our show opening for Dash Rip Rock at Don Pedro’s in Brooklyn.  Our conversation rapidly bounced from cricket to football (English), from Zeppelin to James Booker, to Neil Young’s obsession with fidelity, and many more things in between…honestly not too different than a late-night hyped-up enthusiastic conversation that I would of had with my old pal Jack Rose, who I first came to John’s attention through because of my musical collaborations with Jack.  A kindred lover of the corners of life’s attic that you can sit and chat with for hours, a real pleasure…

Very excited to represent Uncut on their stage at this year’s Great Escape Festival in Brighton on May 12th: http://escapegreat.com/artist?id=2591

#21 on Uncut's top 50 albums of 2010...and...

…also #3 on their 20 Best Americana Albums of 2010… I had the good fortune to play on lucky #13 as well, Jack Rose’s Luck In The Valley.  Lots of love from the fine folks over at Uncut.
