Aaron Lee Tasjan
Silver Tears
Like The Beatles with Tamla Motown, The Stones and their fascination for Chess Records, Dylan's love first for Little Richard and then for Woody Guthrie, ALT too has his influences - the fab Georgics of the contagious 'Dime,' the maybe kneel to Neil of the heart-wrenching 'Refugee Blues' where "your conscience becomes thinner than the soles of worn out shoes". You can imagine Gram having a lonesome warble through 'On Your Side' and Mavis kissing the heavens with the benedictions of 'Where The Road Begins And Ends'. And Aaron could've been a Wilbury just fine. Like Dan Penn and Neil Young, this is white soul that is beyond colour and full of colour, heart to art and vice versa, the voice authentic with the dust of the road. Songs of pain and redemption, of loss and longing and toleration and elucidation and maybe elevation, which way is up? And d'you mind if we have a laugh along the way?
