“Bryan Clark’s musical style does not belong to any one genre. Not only does he transcend genres from song to song on this album, Clark sometimes does the same thing within the same song – a nifty talent and difficult to pull off as seamlessly as he does. Clark has a rich, smooth voice that punctuates his talents as a songwriter. Lyrics are well-penned, well-sung and often profound.” - Roots Music Review Combine master guitar skills with the songwriting acumen of a troubadour twice his age, crossing all music genres imagineable - one might begin to define the likes of Bryan Clark. An artist in every sense of the word, humble yet profoundly talented. “Gossip, Inspiration, and Slander” is the much anticipated follow up to Bryan’s “Nebraska House”. This project features 2 CDs: an ELECTRIC CD, which features genre-bending Texas/Americana,and the ACOUSTIC CD which makes new strides in contemporary bluegrass. If you like Nickel Creek, Chris Thile, and Allison Krauss, you’ll really love the ACOUSTIC CD. As an added bonus Bryan has redone some of the songs off the ELECTRIC CD on the ACOUSTIC CD. It sheds further light on his skills as an arranger (Take the burning and some serious re-working of the bluegrass standard “Blackberry Blossom” for just one example). For you serious Bluegrass/ Newgrass fans, the Acoustic CD features an all-star cast: Bryn Bright (Tony Rice, Peter Rowan, Patti Griffin) on Bass. Chris Pandolfi (The Infamous Stringdusters) on banjo, Matt Flinner (Todd Phillips, David Grier) on mandolin, and Casey Dreissen (Bela Fleck, Tim O'Brien) on fiddle!
