Come Early For: Tom Brosseau

Come Early For: Tom Brosseau

November 6, 2007 by Cale

Opening for Mum tomorrow, this soft spoken singer-songwriter should fit nicely with the aethetics of the Sixth & I Historic Synagogue. His latest effort, Cavalier, may win the award for shittiest album cover of all time, but don’t let that deter you, haunting and poetic, this intimate recording is a real grower.

Hey Cale – stop trying to steal my job of reviewing record design. Although… I do see your point…

The album art is an homage to an obscure author’s book art that Tom was reading at the time.
