According to Sean Wright‘s Last.fm biography, he’s endeavored to record and release a new collection of songs every month since April 2007. As near as we can tell, he’s been good to his word.
What’s more, all of the albums he’s recording and releasing are available for free through a variety of venues on the internet.
An interesting approach from a guy who counts among his influences everything from ’60s folk to ’70s classic rock to ’80s country.
That’s what we hear in “Blow These Blues Away” from the very first twang of the Telecaster. Wright has the gutsy growl of a countrified Bob Dylan and the skill at turning phrase as solid as anyone turning out tunes in Nashville.
No wonder this prolific singer and songwriter (who’s also a record producer and novelist) is sought out by a dozen or more collaborators. Our only disappointment is that he’s not a practicing attorney and world-renowned pastry chef, as well. Maybe he’ll do that next year.
