Hearfield has, in the last few years, put together some varied and interesting material. Collaborating lyrically with Duncan Mangham and Tony Sutton the three CDs show a diverse selection of music.
'I Found It In Howard's Garage' weaves layered sonic structures with intriguing narrative vocals, leading the listener through the dark corridors of society's underbelly - bank robbery and murder are just two of the themes on offer. The darkness of the lyrics are balanced by the more anthemic and lighthearted tunes such as 'Complicated'.
Taking the darker side a step further, it was almost inevitable that a lowdown dirty blues album would emerge. Combine cracking guitar lines with some earthy blues rhythms and you have 'RED', the highly regarded second album.
Just remember - Call him Ed, never call him Red...
Then there was 3!! NOUVEAU NOIR. The latest and the first of a trilogy. Mix 21st Century Blues with Blues/Americana.
Guitars blaze, drums thunder. It plays out like a Noir novel. The subjects weave from being Blackmailed via split personalities to revenge. Try it.
