Grayson Capps

Hailing from South Alabama and spending over a decade in New Orleans, revered singer-songwriter Grayson Capps has found listeners the world over enthralled by his stinging tales of the Southern Gothic. He explains in his own words: "I write songs which have the voice of dead prophets masquerading as town drunks screaming 'look at us we're pretty, too!'" ...

... Over the course of four critically acclaimed studio albums and cameo appearance in the Golden Globe Award-nominated film A Love Song For Bobby Long, one will find a stunning depth to his discography, authenticating Grayson Capps as a rare American gem, equal parts country singer, bluesman, rock star, philosopher and poet. As Jambase recently declared, "New Orleans' marvel Grayson Capps is alive and well and slowly building one of the most phenomenal ..Photobucketsongbooks in America today. If ever there were a cat primed to pick up where Lowell George and John Prine have left off, it's Capps."


... Grayson Capps tours internationally with his band, The Lost Cause Minstrels ...

Featuring: Corky Hughes (lead guitar), Chris Spies (Hammond B-3),Christian Grizzard (bass) and John Milham (drums)

... The new album 'The Lost Cause Minstrels' is going to be released on June 7th through Royal Potato Family.
