Event details: Hayes Carll
Description
If you havent already heard of Hayes Carll, you soon will. In the three years since his self-released second album, Little Rock became available, Carll has toured relentlessly in North America and abroad (performing over two hundred shows a year), founded a successful singer-songwriter music festival on the Gulf Coast of Texas, secured a record deal with Lost Highway Records, and has even seen Little Rock become the first self-released album to reach 1 on the Americana Music Chart. Hes only getting started.
On his new album, Trouble In Mind, the 32 year-old Carll navigates his way through both stormy weather and calm, sun-drenched waters with ease, emerging with songs that melt even the hardest heart in town (a feat he manages on the plaintive, world-weary Don&39;t Let Me Fall) or heat up a roadhouse (like the ruggedly strutting Wild as a Turkey). Their impact is heightened by the fact that they&39;re songs born of both immersion in the works of his songwriting heroes and plenty of real world experience.
&147;He evokes Townes Van Zandt lyrically, Guy Clark emotionally, Steve Earle stylistically and Ray Wylie Hubbard spiritually.&148; -Boston Herald
