A BRIEF EXPLANATION
Legend has it I spent 25 years in the woods doing nothing but play the guitar.
I have named myself after an imaginary obsolete analog tape recorder.
If you want to believe that story, you can!
5-Track is the electric guitar player you've seen around Echo Park (Los Angeles, Earth) playing shows with Amanda Jo Williams, Cricket & The 2:19, and his own Glass Goblins. Or maybe you saw him play a solo acoustic show out in Long Beach.
5-Track's guitar "howls and coos like a wolf on opium" (White Noise Records promo for Amanda Jo Williams), his singing has been described as "enlightened field holler" by no less a light then Julian Cope, and his voice and lyrics have been compared to Neil Young and Bob Dylan (in CD reviews by Terrascope Online and LARecord).
But don't take their word for it. Check out a show. Listen to some mp3s. Buy a CD (or a cassette). Make up your own mind. It's all you've got.
