Sean Watkins - Blinders On

With Blinders On, Grammy-winning Nickel Creek guitarist/songwriter/singer Sean Watkins pushes his ever-developing sonic palette further into indie-pop. As is the case with his Nickel Creek bandmate Chris Thile, on his solo albums Watkins exercises his creativity and vision with unmatched agility - crafting thoughtful narratives and richly complex yet irrefutably accessible melodies to arrive at a mature brand of intelligent, acoustic pop. Includes performances by Jon Forman (Switchfoot), Benmont Tench, Jon Brion, Glenn Kotche (Wilco), Sara Watkins, Gabe Witcher, Byron House, Rashad Eggleston, Mark Schatz, and Duncan Moore. Nickel Creek has sold 1.5 million records and was named one of Time Magazine's Music Innovators for the New Millennium.
