Description:
Jule Brown`s 2006 release, Smoke and Mirrors, was an impressive third album from this singer-songwriter from North Carolina. Jule used his subtle word-play and minimalist song structure to send heavy messages while keeping the music light and danceable. On Soldier in the 9th, this core structure to the "Jule Brown sound" is continued and expanded by keyboards. The Hammond B-3, Wurlitzer and Rhodes conjure images of reggae beats, Procol Harum, Dylan and a host of other influences, while continuing his wry commentary on life in America. (Enabler)
