Truett – “Lies and Lightning”
Truett
Lies and Lightning
Truett has just released his second EP, Lies and Lightning, and it may just be five songs but how happy your ears are going to be!
It all starts with an irresistible drumbeat, provided by Paul Hammer, leading directly into a thicket of wild guitar riffs and somewhat distorted vocals for “Run Me Down” and “Selfish Lover.” What a wild ride, which gentles to a sweet rocking rhythm for the beautiful “Time To Time,”
But don’t be lulled, because next is the dark, intense, heavily reverbed “Fire.” Truett excels at these songs that sound barely controlled, but he also excels at aching, tender ballads like “Coldwater Michigan.” The songwriting on these songs is superb.
Altogether, the EP shows Truett’s amazing flexibility and skill not just as the guitar virtuoso he has been from a young age, but now, in his 20’s, as an artist and performer who delivers blues-rock of the highest quality.
Be forewarned: Lies and Lightning will leave you wanting more. It’s a lot of please
