Share the post "Single review: ROSS HARDING – Graveyard Blues"
Not as immediate as previous output, but carrying on with his blues as devils music, this single is unmistakably Ross Harding. The voice, the sparse arrangements, the atmospherics, Ross has his brand down to a tee.
A song about sacrifice of self and desire to pursue an artform and not commercialism, it draws on a long tradition of blues artists starting with Robert Johnson. His gravelly baritone voice is as outstanding as ever, pulling the listener in to the narrative.
There is some wonderful acoustic blues picking going on in this song, and this is one of the reasons I love this guy’s music – he doesn’t go all electric to bring a point home, he does a lot of acoustic and slide to get his blues across.
This is the second of three songs and is available now, alongside ‘John The Revelator’ and, on July 10th, ‘If I Had Possession Over Judgement Day’ will fulfill the trilogy of this EP.
Ross is embarking on an extensive tour of the UK, watch out for him, dates are being added all the time. ****
