The Dark Delirious Morning continues to get rave reviews! "An unpretentious little masterpiece; 9 out of 10" -- Americana-UK.com "This is one record that demands to be heard. Stunning" -- Whisperinandhollerin.co.uk "Highly recommended to fans of My Morning Jacket and Wilco" -- minnpost.com "Reminiscent of the story-telling abilities of Tom Waits" -- Riftmagazine.com "The man's got pop down" -- Minnesota Monthly Minneapolis-based songwriter Chris Koza has released three proper albums and an EP. The first album, 'Exit Pesce,' came trickling out of a basement apartment in late autumn of 2004. 'Patterns,' his 2006 full-length sophomore effort, received more local acclaim. With the release of EP 'A Friend of a Friend' that same fall, Koza cemented himself as a prolific artist devoted to the craft of songwriting, and eager to expand. Since spring 2007, Koza has toured extensively as a 4 or 5 piece band with a compelling live show that has introduced people coast-to-midwest-to-coast to this promising young artist. The latest album, 'The Dark, Delirious Morning,' was released on June 7th at classic Twin Cities concert venue First Avenue, and continues to receive strong radio airplay on MPR's influential 89.3 The Current, FM KCMP. "Koza knocks the listener off balance by pairing his avant-garde lyrical inclinations with precise folk-pop melodies of a largely traditional bent delivered in a clear, pleasing tenor, recalling ’70s singer-songwriters like Jackson Browne and Paul Simon in the process." -- Rob Van Alstyne, Pulse of the Twin Cities; Minneapolis, MN "Passionate lyrics sung with a determined sincerity are branded with his trademark melodies like a Wyoming steer in a weathered ranch. Backing up his vocals and acoustic guitar are a fine threesome who are more than competent musicians themselves. Threading the needle finely between indie folk and pop-rock, Koza is a musician that modern master musicians like Oberst would cite with reverence." -- www.smother.net/reviews/modernrock.php3?ID=1604 More Press: Mpls/St. Paul Magazine interview, Jan 2006 City Pages capsule review, Jan 2006 Profile in the Star Tribune, March 2006 City Pages Picked2Click, Sept 2005
