    -Yankee Racers-
    "American Music"

    "...for American Music, Brewer and Jatcko strip back both the music and the overall approach, and while the album's name serves as a sleight of hand on the title track, it also defines the folk- and jazz-flecked approach to these acoustic songs.

    "Brewer, perhaps best known as the fiery lead guitarist for the blues/noir bar band Kentucky Knife Fight (to which Jatcko often contributes), shows his deft fingerpicking and dulcet banjo plucks here. On "What It Takes" the music takes the form of a circular folk ballad, laying a simple melodic bed for Brewer's searching lyrics and capable, if somewhat strained, vocals."

    "The twinkling waltz of "Stealing Romance," a Milk Carton Kids cover, borrows some of that duo's style with harmonized vocals and Brewer's pinpoint guitar solo."

lyrics

You don't have to feel so down
when the grey curtain falls
The cold air blowing in
surrounded by your creaking walls

You can't get enough of what you give away
You can't understand what it means to say
All the words that I've held in so long

Slow it down, there's still time
I never thought that you would feel this way, Jamie
Slow it down, why do you cry
Things will never be as they were yesterday

Spring will melt away the snow
gray always turns back to blue
The warm air blowing in
Leave these walls surrounding you
Leave these walls surround you

Slow it down, there's still time
I never thought that you would feel this way, Jamie
Slow it down, why do you cry
Things will never be as they were yesterday

Tonight is all we need to know...

You can't get enough of what you give away
You can't understand what it means to say
All the words that I've held in so long

Formed in 2010, Brewer & Jatkco decided to explore new territory in their writing & recording methods. The resulting aftermath is their first combined effort, Duologue. This album features performances from STL's finest such as Jason Holler & Seth Porter. ... more
