Greg Trooper - Floating

After years of cutting his teeth in folk clubs in New York's Greenwich Village and the Austin,Texas rich music scene, singer/songwriter Greg Trooper has planted solid roots in Nashville. The one constant in this previously itinerant man's career has been the admiration he has received from more established names: Rosanne Cash, Steve Earle, Vince Gill and Billy Bragg have each recorded Greg's songs. In a rootsy setting rocked up by unadorned organ, guitar, bass and drums accompaniment, Floating showcases Greg's material at its finest. Here is his ability to condense complex human emotions into powerful, simple songs; his knack for inventing unforgettably fetching melodies; his vocal style proving he stands shoulder-to-shoulder with today's best singer/songwriters.
