If Nick Drake, Richard Thompson and Dave Carter had an alien love child it would sound like John Twist.
Bio / Background
A debut effort that exhibts a unique lyrical voice and an extrodinary instrumentalist. Here's what the citics/press has to say of Twist's efforts:
"Twist is an unusual yet strangely alluring musician. His baritone voice goes on its own deep journey while his virtuoso guitar playing keeps each song focused. Hints of the Blues, Appalachian and Celtic music seep in to Twist's original songs, which are vivid stories filled with imagery and emotion." Idaho Statesman
"I really was surprised by the intensity of Twist's songs, it's like I hear Christy Moore. Really good songs!!!" Berrie Koetsier Radio Ijsselmond, The Netherlands,
"A rare gem in today's musical pebble field."
Chris Merrick KBOO Program director
"Sophisticated imagery, beautiful linear melodies and slightly gravely voice set against swift picking patterns creates a compelling urban folk style.
