Black Sheep

Description

Originally scheduled for release on 02/19 The stories Austin Meade tells through his songs are as contradictory as they are cohesive. *Black Sheep*, his debut album for Snakefarm Records, reflects musical influences that are as rich as they are varied. He nurtured his talent in a small Texas town, where these 12 stellar songs, whose musicality is beyond doubt, were born. It was by discovering the depth of songwriters such as John Mayer and Tom Petty that Austin Meade opened his soul to music. A drummer in his early days, teaching to make ends meet, it was through his guitar that he finally found his true voice. From then on, he wore out his boots on countless club stages across Texas and Oklahoma. It was there that he gradually matured his "Dirt Red," honed his mustache, and where his country music began to nonchalantly flirt with rock 'n' roll and Americana.
