Bio / Background
Compton Maddux/ purveyor of the finest agro-rock
Compton Maddux's new album DIRT SIMPLE is an accoustic based blues-Appalachian weld along the lines of Allison Krause and Steve Earle. The material is peppered with humor and irony. Other contibuting writers include Paul Jay and Eliot Osborn from the Outerspace Band.
Says Maddux,"I like to put sex and religion in close proximity and paint the America that I would like to exist..."
Players on this album include Allison Cornell (Shania Twain) on fiddle/vocals and Bill Ruyle on hammer dulcimer and percussion. Gary Solomon on standup bass. John Moses/ dobro and banjo. Steve Hardwick and Gil Paris on electric guitars It was recorded live on a rainy night..at Lenny Posts' studio in Blauvelt, N.Y.
"Maddux continues in the great tradition of Americana storytellers a la Dylan and Hyatt. He takes the mythic agro landscape of the south and midwest and spins a Faulkeresque fabric sexual hijinks and swampy hooks.
↓ more ↓In songs like Cornfield, Biblebelt and Black Violin he delivers both poignancy and humor in fair measure in rock'in/accoustic package that feels super real and authentic. ---Steve Sterling producer and manager of the Seatones
Of Dirt Simple Maddux states,"This album is like magic to me.....it's like I dreamed it and it came true. I can't think of a place I would rather live musically. I think i got real lucky with the people, the music and the moment."
