专辑介绍

Jon Bryant’s new CD Two Coasts for Comfort surrounds the listener with a familiarity that can only be described as honest. This is reflected in his use of studio talk to break down that invisible barrier between the actual person singing the song and the one listening to it. Beginning the CD this way - and even, in one song, restarts it at the beginning betraying a strong sense of realism. The music predominantly uses a primary acoustic guitar with others backing up it up at different times. However, Bryant also brings in other instruments for various songs such as violin, piano, and even an accordion (for the song “Were You There”). He’s not opposed to other musical conventions, though, as he includes clapping and stomping. and a harmonized female voice on “Hallelujah”.

His voice itself conveys a calm tiredness that lends a strong, serious demeanour to what he’s doing, while at the same time allowing himself to sound emotional and begging. He also adds a subtle echo to the vocals which when added to his soft voice gives a feeling of reminiscence. In some songs Bryant re-emphasizes this by using repetition in a way that makes you picture a black and white film reel repeating over and over. This strong feeling of nostalgia, coupled with lyrics about love and even religion, runs through the entire track list. In one song he overlaps his voice with a speech about Jesus Christ and the cheering that goes with it. Some songs even have a tendency to sound like hymns such as “Hallelujah” and “Were You There.”
