Cass McCombs

ARTIST MAINARTIST INFORELATED ARTISTSLINKSREVIEWS

Baltimore-based singer/songwriter Cass McCombs' moody but often surprisingly humorous music is aided and abetted by bassist Trevor Shimizu, keyboardist Natalie Conn, and drummer Dutch E. Germ (who has also played with Neil Michael Hagerty). Tours with the Oxes and Palace paved the way for McCombs' debut EP, 2002's Not the Way, which arrived on Monitor Records; A was released early the following year and was distributed in Europe and the U.K. by 4AD. McCombs and his band spent much of 2003 and 2004 touring, playing the {~All Tomorrow's Par...[more]

 

 

The debut full-length from Cass McCombs, "A," is hot off the release of his debut EP, "Not the Way." Easily one of the most splendid debuts from an artist, "A" is a revival. A rejuvenation.

The debut release from Cass McCombs. The epic begins. Coined "post-nostalgia," "new-old-school," regardless of what you call it, Cass is composing passionate, touching songs that are exquisite and humbling. You will not find many in music today that are writing and playing with the heart Cass does. Cass brings back a certain feeling and soul to music, something that has been missing and rarely heard since electronic devices and synthetic beats have begun to replace the back line and sung harmonies. These ar   [ read more ]
