All Genres > Folk > like Joni > AMERICAN IMPRESSIONIST SONGWRITERS: American Impressionist Songwriters

American Impressionist Songwriters offers an experience comparable to a walk through a fine art gallery. An impressionist song is one that paints a picture and leaves something to the imagination. Included are 18 songs from: James McCandless, Doyle Carver, Jano Brindisi, Andrew Calhoun, Tom Payne, Diane Zeigler, Chuck Brodsky, Kat Eggleston, Michael McNevin, Al Day, and Steve Fisher.

"It's always a pleasure when one stumbles across a whole new territory of musical experience. ...Waterbug's American Impressionist Songwriters compilation is a fine example of this."
- Dave White, Rock 'n' Reel, England

"Sitting here in Omaha on a weekday morning, enjoying 'American Impressionist Songwriters' - it is such a pleasure to listen to a collection where content and theme are more important than any other consideration. The integrity and passion behind the songs is evident to anyone who takes the time to listen, and is an inspiration to those of us who work at writing this music."
- Tom May, host-producer "River City Folk"

"...a great mix of emotional content, performing styles and classy production... Examined by a lover of poetry and music, these 18 songs yield up a rich content of language from points of view so divergent at times, it is difficult to understand how they could all be included in a single collection and still maintain any sort of continuity; but that is the case here nonetheless..."
- John McClure, Victory Review
