Editorial review
There's a dreamlike quality to Deadman's Paramour, and a sense of hushed open space that makes them seem like an unlikely mating between American Music Club, Chris Isaak, and Mazzy Star. Stephen Collins is a writer with a sense of depth and history, which he demonstrates in "The Ballad of Padre Miguel" and "Three Murders." There's something ineffably Western (not to mention a taste of the Mexican border) about his compositions, a feel for the desert and open spaces that fill the West, without ever resorting to outlaw mythology. And in "Lonely Times" there are moments when he seems to conjure up America's best roots band, the Band, in the ruggedness of his words and melodies. And that leads fairly naturally to a cover of Paul Simon's "America," performed in hushed tones by Stephen and Sherilyn Collins before floating out some minutes later on the hidden ambient instrumental. In "The Pale Rider," "Rosa Marie," and "La Zapatista," Collins has created three of the best roots compositions in many years; it's hard to classify them as rock or country because they refuse to fall into any pigeonhole -- and the band fires quiet sparks throughout them, indeed on the entire album. A small masterpiece of Americana. ~ Chris Nickson, All Music Guide
Bio / Background
Paramour is the eagerly anticipated full-length debut from Texas artist, DEADMAN. Produced by Mark Howard (whose engineering credits include: U2, Bob Dylan, Peter Gabriel, Willie Nelson, Emmy Lou Harris, Daniel Lanois, Iggy Pop, Marriane Faithful...)and recorded at the famed "Paramour" estate in Los Angeles, California, this record captures its musical moments with a profound truth and spirit.
In March of 2001, Steven was contacted by Producer/ Engineer Mark Howard (U2, Bob Dylan, Willie Nelson, Peter Gabriel, Emmy Lou Harris..) who discussed making a full-length with the band at his new Los Angeles studio location. Less than a week later, the band found themselves in a mansion (the Paramour) in the Hollywood hills tracking their debut full-length with Mr. Howard. DEADMAN has since licensed the "Paramour" album to Lakeshore Records and was released nationally in March of 2002.
