Lonely Vagabond,
Artist Mention
>>
Writing music that’s simple and direct has always spoke volumes. One such musician is Brooklyn’s Boy Without God, aka, Gabriel Birnbaum, whose brand of avant folk-blues is musically threadbare, yet emotionally rich and deep, camouflaging a sense of heartache and sentimentality punctuated by Birnbaum’s deep, haunting vocals. Setting in motion tunes echoing of rustic, traditional roots, Birnbaum strummed/crooned alongside an ensemble delivering stellar touches of sax, violin, and trumpet with sweet harmonies resonating as a classic sound where Americana–hued nostalgia embraces the modern sphere. 07/27/11
