Stinger is Trip Rogers's second solo project. In contrast to his first disc, Mainline, Stinger is an entirely acoustic album. There are no electric instruments whatsoever, and only hand percussion. Along with Trip's powerful songwriting, distinctive vocal style, and fiery guitar work, there are several stellar guest appearances. Tom Vickers, formerly of Dwight Yoakum's band, lends his beautiful fingerstyle guitar work to Lady Bleu, a song that Tom and Trip wrote together. Charlotte, NC-based jazzman Tim Gordon delivers an amazing saxophone performance on Often Wrong. North Carolina soul singer LaVita Harris performs her song Getaway with Trip providing the accompaniment. Americana songwriter Rick Sprietzer adds his tasteful harmonica playing to an acoustic remake of Mainline's New Moon. Most tracks include Scot Caviness on upright bass and Jeff Chester on hand percussion. Stinger is a mature, seasoned project that benefits from sparse production, good songcraft, and fine musicianship. This is one CD that you can leave in the player for repeated listenings.
