"Texasee" by Luke Powers (Rock Artist from Tennessee(TN))

"Texasee" by Luke Powers is an impressive recent release in the Americana or alternative country/rock style. Each track embodies well-crafted songwriting from Powers, and many feature superb musical performances from guest musicians. Tommy Spurlock, a long time collaborator with Powers, provides great guitar work on a number of tracks including "Billy the Kid Rides Again." Listen to Spurlock's mastery of the steel guitar on the gently swaying "Tops of the Trees" and the upbeat "Indian Eyes," which also features a strong vocal from Powers. Suzi Ragsdale provides outstanding harmony vocals on many tracks including "Aron Presley," "Lower Broad," and the stimulating "In the Real World." Also noteworthy is the fine drumming provided by Jamie Oldaker. These musical performances serve to reinforce the strong writing abilities of Powers. "Texasee" by Luke Powers is a notable release that fans of Americana music in the vein of Neil Young and Bob Dylan will find very appealing.
