Jason Spooner is offering up preview tracks from his new CD 'The Flame You Follow' on his
Myspace page.
Here is a little info on the release:
This multi-award winning New England-based songwriter
discovered his father’s collection of eight-track tapes as a child and never looked back. After
early exposure to songwriter legends like Neil Young, Paul Simon, Jim Croce and Van Morrison
along with Motown heavies like Marvin Gaye, Stevie Wonder and Gladys Knight, Jason was
inspired to start making the rounds on coffee house stages in his teens.
Shortly thereafter, he
spent time in Europe performing in folk & blues clubs and on the streets of London and around
Spain. Once back in the states, he landed a job at a roots & blues record label where he
witnessed numerous Blues legends (including members of the original Muddy Waters band )
making magic in recording sessions. Before long, Jason jumped head-first into the Northeast's
burgeoning songwriter scene.
The maturity and strength of his impressive debut album “Lost
Houses” quickly began to turn the heads of fans and critics alike. Within a few months of the
release, he added a blistering rhythm section (Andy Rice and Reed Chambers) to the
supporting cast, establishing The Jason Spooner Trio as one of the most interesting and
noteworthy up-and-coming acts since Kathleen Edwards or Martin Sexton.
