BA DA BING

Brooding country songs, combining tradition and innovation. Transparent covers an array of material, from solo guitar and piano numbers, to full-band accompaniment (provided by the band Holiday) to duets (with Claudia Gonson, of The Magnetic Fields).

Mostly acoustic songs, mostly on the downtempo side of the emotional spectrum, Morphew’s lyrics nail every notion of love’s follies with precision.

Joined by a full backing band, including the woman who sang The Jeffersons theme song, Jason Morphew’s third record realized the full production potential of his songs.
