John Fullbright "Stepping Toward The Pantheon" (Billboard) With 'Songs,' Out This Week

The New York Times said John Fullbright “joins the lineage of terse Southwestern songwriters like Townes Van Zandt and Guy Clark” with his new album ‘Songs’ (out this week on Blue Dirt/Thirty Tigers). The album is earning Fullbright the best reviews of his career, including USA Today’s perfect, 4/4 star review, saying "the young Oklahoman follows his Grammy-nominated debut ‘From the Ground Up’ with an even stronger collection of songs." See below for more.

The NY Times is streaming 'Songs' in full, listen here.

John Fullbright is on tour now, including upcoming shows at DC’s Hill Country Live on June 16 and LA’s GRAMMY Museum on June 30 (full schedule below).

“‘Songs’ shows a talented young artist exceeding expectations and stepping proudly toward the pantheon of the legendary singer-songwriters he idolizes." – Billboard

"The simplicity of the album's title is a harbinger of what it contains – songs impressively and potently economical, mostly stripped back to poetically astute lyrics and heart-rending musical feeling." - LA Times

“A winning set... Sad and serious and wise and wonderful, well written, well played and well sung. Well done.” - Associated Press

"(His songs) shine through with clarity, care, and thoughtfulness, each one a fully realized little gem.” - AllMusic, 4/5 Stars

"[John Fullbright] may very well be the best troubadour to emerge from this decade." - The Morning Sun

“Enigmatic” – No Depression
