Quietly Blowing It
Despite its grand scope and good intentions, the latest album from M.C. Taylor is the sound of an artist beginning to repeat himself: lite music for dark times.
Hiss Golden Messenger's tenth outing Quietly Blowing It is filled with pure emotional sincerity
M.C. Taylor, the vocalist and songwriter behind Hiss Golden Messenger, was struggling with some heavy emotional baggage when he was making 2019's Terms of Surrender, written and recorded as he grieved the death of his father and experienced a deep slide into depression.
On 'Quietly Blowing It', Hiss Golden Messenger brings experienced Appalachian artfulness to provide just the right space to fulfill his vision.
MC Taylor offers up soulful Dylan-esque country rockers about the impact of the system on ordinary lives
