Jonathan Jude Darby

Darby mixes up all the world has lost: Electric Guitar licks like CCR, a Cash like voice and strong words, his latest outing though, is more folksy and friendly, more roots than rage. Come Down is dangerously close to pop-folk but contemporary in its production its a happy go lucky number about an apology. Said I Need You although this number has a mellow swing to it, its dark.. very dark six feet under, with the worms crawling through our skin you get the picture, the backing band provide a beautiful backdrop with funeral type organ, it was decided to leave the mix in its rough from.. youll notice towards the end. Big Blue Bus Apparently written about the Santa Monica Blue Bus, this tracks got great riffs and a foot stompin beat, its nicely lo-fi too and here Darbys voice reminds of J. Cash.. hell the country feel is very evident on this number. Produced by Stuart Lawn (St. Marks Electric Choir, PrepH, Her Little Orchestra, Shack)
