On the Widow's Walk - The White Buffalo [VINYL]

Seventh studio album from The White Buffalo, the touring/recording persona of Jake Smith, a singer, songwriter, guitarist and teller of tales, whose voice, a timber-shakin' baritone, seems fuelled by a greater truth. Of all the albums released under The White Buffalo banner to date, this 11-tracker - a loosely-linked collection of dark thrills produced by Shooter Jennings, who also provides piano and keys - is the most collaborative and organic. From the beginning, Oregon-born Smith has wilfully side-stepped genre, touching on a variety of musical threads - from Americana to punk, from brooding folk to driving rock 'n' roll - whilst maintaining a strong, signature style. His spontaneous delivery and narrative lyrics are at the heart of it all, instilling the songs - effectively, mini-movies - with a cinematic, hand-crafted quality, and this very much holds true for 'On the Widow's Walk'.
