With his world-weary voice and gritty, narrative-driven songs,
Kasey Anderson has drawn comparisons to Americana and alt-country artists like
Steve Earle,
Tom Waits,
Nebraska-era
Bruce Springsteen, and
Ryan Adams. Bouncing between the folk scenes of Bellingham, WA, and Portland, OR,
Anderson has become a regional favorite and has attracted some national press attention for his five albums, 2001's
Harold St. Blues, 2004's
Dead Roses, 2007's
The Reckoning, 2009's
Way Out West, and 2010's
Nowhere Nights, all of which were produced by
Eric Ambel and recorded at
Ambel's Cowboy Technical Sources studio in Brooklyn, NY.
