Malcolm Holcombe – For the Mission Baby

  • December 28, 2009

Malcolm Holcombe is a veteran singer/songwriter with a trademark raspy voice and a string of critically acclaimed releases. Recorded with returning producer Ray Kennedy at Echo Mountain Records in North Carolina, For the Mission Baby features a blend of Appalachian folk and traditional blues backed by guest performers Tim O’Brien (picker – banjo, guitar, mandolin), Jared Tyler (bass), and Kenny Malone (drums). Often drawing comparisons to Bob Dylan, Kris Kristofferson or Tom Waits, Holcombe’s music is both timeless and unique. If you enjoy blues, dark Americana and/or country, check out For The Mission Baby – one of Holcombe’s best works to date. – Written by JFelton
