Coming Down Poster
New Orleans singer-songwriters find it difficult to avoid writing about the tragedies--personal, political, philosophical--of Hurricane Katrina and Anders Osborne weighs in with his version on his first release since that fateful storm. It's a laidback, stripped-down, primarily unplugged set that finds the musician channeling the spirit of early Jackson Browne, Paul Simon, and Van Morrison to stirring effect. Recorded in both the Crescent City and Nashville, the easygoing, soulful, bluesy-jazzy folk feels like a breezy spring day, even when Osborne is singing about "Summertime in New Orleans." Much of the writing reflects the musician's happiness at his place in life, after tough years where he has "survived more than I should," as he relates in "Lucky One." The sparse swamp creep of "When I?m Back on My Feet" balances on a tightrope between the blues, soul, and folk that dominate this low-key yet moving album. The deliberate pace of the songs, along with Kirk Joseph's occasional sousaphone bass and barely-there percussion that includes sporadic djembe, bathes the listener like a haze as Osborne sings personal narratives that never feel self-serving or trite. A few more upbeat tunes might have brought additional energy to the proceedings, but Coming Down revels in its delightfully warm ambiance of acoustic instruments backing Osborne's genial voice. He sounds like a best friend who has written these songs specifically for you. --Hal HorowitzBlues Music CDs
