Editor's review
Sounding like a cross between Patsy Cline, Bob Dylan, and some backwoods banjoist, Australian bluegrasser Kelly is a bona fide master of the lovelorn lament. On his 2005 record "Foggy Highway," Kelly has wisely lined up with country troupe the Stormwater Boys, a plucky bunch that, despites its name, apparently includes at least one lovely voiced lass.
Biography
"Bluegrass is a mysterious music straining with paradox", writes the critically acclaimed Australian singer songwriter Paul Kelly in one of his personal letters about his new album Foggy Highway. With this newest release featuring the Australian country music scene gun musicians, The Stormwater Boys, the prolific and versatile Australian icon, Paul Kelly, continues his exploration of the bluegrass sound, all the while taking the listener closely inside with lyrics that exude a humor and poignancy reminiscent of early Bob Dylan.
