JOYNER, SIMON: Out Into The Snow LP
Simon Joyner "Out Into The Snow" LP (Team Love Records)
Out Into The Snow is full of gorgeous human gestures from well-developed
characters rising and falling in overlapping arcs of time. Brazen
songwriting, like all great art, challenges even more than it
entertains. Another mile-stone performance from Simon Joyner, perhaps
the greatest songwriter you've never heard.Sounding sometimes like Doug
Yule era Velvet Underground (with some Paris 1919 John Cale thrown in
for good measure), On the Beach period Neil Young , Happy/Sad era Tim
Buckley, and Our Mother the Mountain period Townes Van Zandt, the album
is littered with complex characters.
