专辑简介

Chris Canterbury is a songwriter/singer from the piney woods of north Louisiana. He is a multi-instrumentalist (guitar, mandolin, and harmonica) who has shared a stage with Charlie Robison, T-Model Ford, Jimbo Mathus, Cody Canada, and Chris Knight. He tours extensively through the south and Texas, playing barrooms, back porches, and on occasion, the back steps of the Ryman Auditorium.

Chris’s debut album, “Poets, Prophets, and All Things Forgotten”, is populated by lovers (“Crash & Burn”), losers (“Where to Find Me”), and the ghosts that haunt them (“Another Sad Day…”), and that’s reason enough to listen. Fortunately, though, that’s not the only reason there is. With appearances by acclaimed songwriter Kevin Gordon, Mystiqueros Walt Wilkins & Bill Small, and “The world’s most influential dobro player” (not to mention Flying Burrito Brother), Al Perkins, “Poets, Prophets, and All Things Forgotten” musically and lyrically runs the gamut from barroom bawlers, to slick radio ready forget-me-nots. Whether you’re lovelorn, love-struck, or in love with long nights & cheap booze, there’s something here for you. Spin it front to back, back to front, or from the middle out, and soon enough, “Poets, Prophets, and All Things Forgotten” will tug at you, and have you singing along.
