Don't Be a Dictator, Listen to Bart Budwig - Home
Folk/Americana/Blues Singer Songwriter. Sounds like Josh Ritter, Jason Webley, Bob Schneider, Brett Dennen, John Craigie
It seems most emerging music leans either toward an overall annoyingly giddy feel, or an overly-dark, I-snort-cocaine-to-feel-something broodiness. Bart Budwig seems to have found the perfect balance. He continues to produce dopamine-stimulating , thought-provoking tracks without the pervasive use of Auto-Tune or opiates (which arguably have been a factor in the making of some pretty fantastic music). His six-track, blues-folk-rock solo album (A Coke and a Smile, 2009) captivated critics with upbeat acoustic picking juxtaposed with emotionally-heavy lyrics typical in blues, but not always so well delivered. His work has a refreshingly unmanufactured sound that purveys the uncommon, raw edge consistent in all passion-inspired art.
Budwig’s recent project-band release (The Budwiggers, Happy Bones, 2010), expands his already-impressive portfolio of songwriting capabilties, complimenting old and new content alike with the musical talents of a rotating cavalcade of band members from Moscow, Idaho, Budwig’s hometown. Budwig convincingly adds an Alt-country touch to the album, while holding on to the underlying hints of deep-South blues and folk familiar in his music.
