notes
Eleven long years after the release of his debut studio CD Mad at the Moon and five years since the issuance of Mystic Knights of the Folk-Rock Wars, his minimalist thinkabilly collectors' item, California songwriter David Anderson announces the release of his third full-length CD of original music Layover in Reno produced by his son Damon.
Layover in Reno continues his preoccupation with old-fashioned storytelling, wistful nostalgia, understated humor, hyperbolic economy, and an overall optimism regarding the human spirit. It includes two songs with an historical context: ‘Alice Miller’ (a central California ghost story) and ‘Daughter of the Sky’ (about the life and accomplishments of aviatrix Amelia Earhart). Also worth checking out is ‘Recollections of Neal Cassady’, his personal account of meeting and playing sidekick to this ‘icon of Beatnik neo-enlightenment’.

Layover in Reno
author: StellaI've always loved David Anderson's music, and he has some wonderful takes on life in his new album. David's work always takes me back to a more pleasant, more free, more innocent time when anything was possible, no matter what the topic. Even when it's updated subject matter, like Sarah Bellum, I love the mood brought out by his original music and words.
