LUKE BELL
BücherAngebote / Angebote:
Luke Bells Geschichte liest sich wie ein Novelle von Jim Harrison oder Cormac McCarthy. Der aus Wyoming stammende Landarbeiter wurd erst mit 26 Jahren zum Country-Troubadour, doch seine zahlreichen krassen Erfahrungen liessen ihn früh zum gereiften Songwriter werden. Luke Bell's backstory could've come out of the pages of a novel by Jim Harrison, Thomas McGuane or Cormac McCarthy. A fifth-generation descendant of Wyoming homesteaders, the ranch hand turned troubadour has seen a lot of life in his 26 years on this mortal coil, and his self-titled album serves as a rollicking document of his experiences. The record is teeming with colourful characters, captured in hardscrabble yarns of living hard and drinking harder, making bad choices and laughing them off. There's a little bit of their author in each of these awed but redeemable characters-and at a time when authenticity is in short supply, Luke Bell has come along to remind us what it feels like to be truly alive and open to the possibilities of existence in a captivating song cycle that puts the cowboy back into country & western.
