Description
James McMurtry's literate songs take on the big themes of life, love, war and poverty, but he brings a full-bodied rock & roll energy to his performances that guarantees the music packs as much punch as the lyrics. McMurtry gives life to the lost souls who inhabit his songs, individuals who have fallen through the cracks and are desperately trying eke out a life in economically depressed middle America. It's dark subject matter, but this Texas singer-songwriter knows that the bitterest of pills require a little sweetening.
