……..with special guest Sam Morrow.

At 27 years old, Morrow’s found his footing as an artist and appears poised to join the ranks of West Coast heavyweights like Sam Outlaw, Jade Jackson, and Morrow’s friend and label mate, Jaime Wyatt whose vocals can be heard on three songs here. Musically, this is Sam Morrow at his electrified, energetic peak.

Morrow croons one minute and growls the next with a sly nod to his influences while staking out new territory. From Lynyrd Skynyrd-friendly rockers like “Heartbreak Man” to the Little Feat-worthy grooves of “Cigarettes,” Concrete and Mud boldly explores a wide range of styles and sounds. There’s also an undercurrent of classic country running throughout the mix.  “It’s about the fabric of America, and how the Mississippi is a metaphor for what binds very different people together,” says Morrow, whose third album (Concrete and Mud) builds a similar bridge between opposing camps: country and rock & roll; the West Coast and the American South, concrete and mud. “The sentiment is,” he adds, “the things that unite us are stronger than the forces that divide us.”
