Bio / Background
After capturing the spirit of his live acoustic performances with the sparsely produced "Everything I Said" in 2001, Eric Meany gives the nine tunes on "One More Song" the full band treatment and more. From the everyday heartbreak of "Life Goes On" ("...another day, another coronary...") to the particular disappointment felt by a performer on stage in "One More Song" who thought he had seen the girl of his dreams in the audience, Meany's perky arrangements face some potentially depressing lyrical content with grace and charm. Not that everything he sings about is sad, mind you. In "Choir Of Angels" he sings of a love that cannot be done justice by earthbound musicians, while "We're So Happy" thumbs it's nose at those who'd rather not have to witness the public displays of affection of the happiest couple in the world ("...and though our friends may dream of pelting us with bricks, I don't really care...").
↓ more ↓"Man Of Steel" and "Sentimental Tune", both featured in stripped down form on "Everything I Said", are given new life with fuller arrangements, while the old Djibouti song "Slow Children At Play" is re-animated in multitude of different ways over the course of three and a half minutes. Despite being recorded entirely in Washington, D.C. (with the exception of Bruce Baldwin's percussion on "The Wedding Song", recorded in Arizona), hopefully those turned off by election year politics will still give "One More Song" a chance to brighten their day.
