A Mississippi-born Memphian, Blair happily bears the brands of rock and roll's birthplace and a Southerner's appetite for prose.

    This is a great album. Blair sings straight from his heart with more feeling than anyone I heard on the radio lately. If you like his song "Lovely" then you will like the rest of the album. Buy it!

    Tamara I'll go along with that. Excellent country folk music. Blair Combest is a real storyteller like the balladeers in the old days.

    I really enjoyed this album. The songs lyrics are that of a story teller. You can follow along unlike a lot of songs today you listen to and have no idea what they are about.

  • Your right !!

    In the self-titled release, Blair Combest, folk seems to stumble into country, country seems to ooze into folk lines and in the end, there is no genre really to speak of, only the music, reminiscing of tender women, the ache of the rural life and other distilled gems of beauty that infuse everyday life. Blair Combest weaves a subtle desperation with a sense of urgency and "what the hell" approach as if the manic rage of the heart could only be heard in a whisper. While there are echoes of Mississippi and Memphis and deep Appalachian questioning, one of the most powerful nuances in his music is the unstoppable momentum driving these pictures, these stories, these frozen frames of life in motion. With a voice that is both half falling apart and half picking itself up, this man's songwriting is like a big-wheel pushing a semi; there's something simple and playful behind a thundering, ground-shaking experience.
