Originally from Abilene by way of Nashville, singer-songwriter Lee Roy Parnell carves out his unique brand of country soul on the funky BACK TO THE WELL. As the raunchy title track indicates, this collection is a return to the music that first inspired him. Sounding like a contemporary Lowell George on songs like "Just Lucky That Way," Parnell is also an expert interpreter of country ballads like "Old Soul" and jam band-style rock & roll like "Don't Water It Down" and "You Can't Lose 'Em All." The gorgeous, bluesy songs "Breaking the Chain" and "Saving Grace" give him a chance to stretch out with some soulful electric and acoustic slide guitar, while the swinging jump blues instrumental "Cool Breeze" provides further evidence of serious musical chops.

| | Audrey Auld Mezera Texas CD (2005)
Back To The Well CD music
$14.05 Since making her last album (2003's Losing Faith), Audrey Auld left her native Australia for America, got married, and took on her husband's surname, Mezera. What hasn't changed is her ability to create deeply felt country music. On Texas, she concentrates on songs about people she loves, admires, or has been strongly affected by. There are several odes to musicians she respects: Woody Guthrie, Billy Joe Shaver, the late great Nashville songwriter Harlan Howard, and the popular Australian country group Dead Ringer Band. While these tunes frequently make references to their subjects' work -- "Woody"'s chorus starts "This machine heals wounds/This machine ends wars" -- Auld Mezera does a remarkable job of balancing the biographical material with a poetic lyricism. Similarly, "My Father" (a thank-you tune to her dad), "Love You Like the Earth," and the pointedly titled "Missing Mez" (her love songs to her husband) easily could have been cloying numbers. However, her straightforward, sincere expressions of love make them quite touching tunes. Likewise, the twangy ballad "Hole in My Life" stands out as a truly moving elegy to a dead lover. Death also looms large over "Karla Faye," Auld Mezera's solo cover. The haunting Mary Gauthier-penned ...

Back To The Well songs
$16.45 At the age of 27, John Hickey is an up-and-comer in the funk scene. Having played and recorded with George Clinton, Bernie Worrell, and Bootsy Collins, John has been thoroughly schooled by the masters. Yet despite the undeniable influence of these classic funksters, John's music remains fresh, personal, and always...ALWAYS groovin'.John took up the guitar at the age of 14, heavily under the influence of Hendrix, Miles Davis, and James Brown. He relocated from Texas to the tri-state area in his late teens, playing nearly more than half a decade in power trios and developing an aptitude with a wide range of instruments, including guitar, bass, keyboards and drums. In 2001, Hickey became a tech and driver for the WOO Warriors, a band fronted Rock and Roll Hall of Famer Bernie Worrell, original member of Parliament Funkadelic and the Talking Heads. While on tour, Worrell heard John play guitar in music store and decided to let John sit in with the band. Sitting in on one or two songs a night quickly turned into ...
