Press releases for JASON WHITTON describe his music as AMERICANA. We here at ROCKWIRED took out our dictionary and looked it up and sure enough, the definition seemed to fit. His debut CD THRIFTSTORE COWBOY (VAVV RECORDS) is a collection of alt-country jams that speak to the heart and the mind and while it may be easy to label his music as Country/Americana, JASON WHITTON is an artist that defies categorization – Kind of like ROCKWIRED.
THRIFTSTORE COWBOY is a brilliant introduction to an excellent singer-songwriter. From it's haunting opening track ALIBI to the optimistic I STILL BELIEVE IN LOVE, the lovely DANDELION GIRL and the plaintive FINGERNAIL MOON ( featuring cello by DERMOT MULRONEY) THRIFTSTORE COWBOY is recording brimming with angst, hope and sincerity. Let's just say that you'll be playing it over and over again on a dark night with a glass of Merlot.
JASON WHITTON is on his way to being the next great American troubadour. Just remember that ROCKWIRED told you first
