Burd Early hails from the Big Apple, but you'd never know it from his voice or his songs, which sound like stuff you'd be more likely to hear on the front steps of a falling-down farmhouse at the end of a long dirt road. This one-man band, the alias of songwriter James Angelos, offers a brand of sun-baked melancholia heavily steeped in Americana roots. At the same time, Burd Early possesses a bedroom pop ethic that allows drum machines and keyboards to coexist with doodling cowboy guitars, tinkling saloon piano, and gentle snare drum rhythms.
