Paul Sprawl has his own approach to music, the guitar, songwriting, and to finding an audience for his work. He sprouted a small national audience by traveling around in a van going to open mics. His songs combine percussive guitar techniques with bottleneck, tapping, harmonica on a rack, and songs of the downtrodden and forgotten. He travels with a truckstop guide next to the driver's seat, has a college arts education and put out six cds in seven years.

Listen for yourself. With performances in 37 states in the USA and shows in Canada and Germany, Paul Sprawl has toured six to eight months a year since 2000. Since his 1999 cd, Blue Suitcase, produced by Lee Townsend (Bill Frisell, Kelly Joe Phelps) for the German label, Intuition, he's put out five more full-length cds on his own label, Vagabond.

Lovin' the new album... I was able to give it two complete listens on the way out here. Made my night. You have your own voice - and it's damn good! It was a pleasure sharing the stage with you and Kris tonight...

Silver Sound - Online Mastering!





Jul 11 2009 3:09 PM

Professionelles Premastering ist heutzutage ein entscheidender Faktor für den Erfolg einer Musikproduktion.
Viele Mastering Studios sind für den "Musiker im Alleingang" jedoch kaum bezahlbar.
Silver Sound hingegen gibt selbstfinanzierten Künstlern die Möglichkeit, Mastering kostengünstig und auf höchstem Niveau in Anspruch zu nehmen.

Hi there. Hope that all is rockin well. CYBIONT has just uploaded 2 new songs that you are most welcome to have a listen to. The first one is called ‘Feelsome’ and is about how we need to make our hearts grow bigger. The second one is called ‘Do me sti cated’ – a kind of rebellion and a refusal to accept the established “truths” we all are supposed to embrace. Both part of the upcoming album – planned to be released in May. Back in New Zealand CYBIONT is eagerly looking forward to your comments.

Hi there. Hope all is well. As kids we wrote a song called the Flying Saucers has landed. Now, to honor the good ol' days a new tune - inspired by the original idea - has been created.
Welcome over for a listen to FLYING SAUCERS (landed again)
