For the past six years, Phil Putnam has held the attention of artists and listeners alike as one of the most poignant, fresh, intuitive Singer/Songwriters in today’s music industry. With stunning lyrical depth and a trademark blend of piano-pop/rock and ambient alternative sounds, Putnam has earned a reputation for delivering records and live performances that challenge, inquire, and encourage in the vein of artists such as Coldplay, Billy Joel, Elton John, Keane, Tori Amos, Rufus Wainwright, Jeff Buckley, and countless others.On November 7th, 2006, Phil released his fourth studio album, BEST OF INTENTIONS. This full-production, full-force collection of songs has been crafted from the ground up by Putnam and is his most advanced album to date. Co-Produced with producer/engineer D.Wallace, BEST OF INTENTIONS announces a new strong statement from this dynamic artist and marks a significant step forward for Putnam’s music. Punctuating the piano-pop/rock sound he has become known for with programming and ambient influences including Radiohead and Sigur Ros, Putnam and Wallace deliberately pushed the envelope while remaining true to the core expressions in the songs. The result is a confident, complete, sonically rich record which holds Putnam’s trademark lyrical depth and engaging melodies up to an innovative, expansive, and exciting new light.To hear for yourself, check out “Not Much Here†and “Servants and Sons†right here on Phil’s myspace page.BEST OF INTENTIONS, as well as Phil's previous releases, are available for preview and purchase on www.philputnam.com and on the iTunes Music Store.
