about

Bill Hibbets "Bricks & Trees," 2007 With a voice like sand and glue (think Bob Dylan in "Modern Times" or Mark Knopfler on a foggy day) multi-instrumentalist Bill Hibbets renders the bittersweet "Bricks & Trees" with the intimacy of a private performance. Hibbets' kaleidoscopic arrangements bring to mind the depth and creativity of contemporary artists who proudly adhere to the album rock era ethos such as Ryan Adams, David Gray, and the eternally youthful Richard Thompson as the artist melds acoustic and electric guitar passages with an array of disparate sounds, some of them organic, some conjured in the studio. In addition to excelling as a master story-teller ("lock the gate / make the butcher wait / he's got his tie on straight and it's raining"), Hibbets' penchant for melody and rhythm is uncanny - check out the weepy dobro licks on "Nobody Knows" or the subtle reggae grove that lifts the choruses of the opening cut "Bleu." This is the stuff of classic singer-songwriters. Tom Semioli - Minor 7th
