Stuart Pearson’s latest release is “Dark Americana 2: Mojave” – the second in a series of America gone wrong. It’s steeped in more modern Americana than the last album (“Dark Americana: Stories and Songs”) yet is still filled with folk song whispers and cautions from a century ago. There are hints of Tom Waits, Nick Cave and Leonard Cohen thrown in a bucket with ghosts of the 1800's. These are murder ballads, songs of bad decisions, bad people and bad consequences. In January 2023 "Mojave " will be available on Vinyl and CD through MAY I Records.
The previous release is “Dark Americana: Stories and Songs” through Hollywood Trax and Manhattan Production Music. This collection blends the American Mythos of Andrew Wyeth and Edward Hopper into something dark and foreboding. It’s full of dreamy tremelo guitar, banjo, dulcimer and fiddle. Clanging metal and footstomps frame an ominous baritone in a blend of country-folk, film noir ballads, bluegrass and psychedelia. A rusty, creeping sound; haunted and haunting.
