Since everyone I play music with seems to move out of town eventually, I've decided to go at it solo. If you're interested in setting a show up or just want to say hi, drop me a line.

Sounds Like: Local chap William Holley (real name's Nathan) gives a laidback, jazzy show that recalls M. Ward, John Fahey's solo guitar excursions, and perhumps a li'l Ry Cooder. It's finger-picked folk (or blues sans any rustic elements) with lots of chime-y delay and lots of whisper/half-croon vocals. First time I saw dude play I was all, "dude looks like Courtney Taylor-Taylor-Taylor-Taylor-etc," but, heartthrob that he is, Nathan/WH smokes that buster with classy folk magic. That's it. That's the kid's genre from here on out: classy folk magic. Feel free to abbreviate it as "CFM." GRANT MORRIS Portland Mercury
