CRITIC’S PICK: Grayson Capps, Eddie’s Attic—Once you hear singer/songwriter Grayson Capps’ gravely baritone, there’s no forgetting it. A member of the occasional Americana supergroup of sorts Willie Sugarcapps, who has previously played this venue, Capps and his longtime guitarist tours behind a terrific new album of pretty obscure covers appropriately titled ‘Heartbreak, Misery and Death.’ The country and blues songs are older but take on a fresh life in Capps’ hands and gripping voice. His between song banter is as compelling as his singing and his enthralling 90 minute set seems to fly by in half that time. — Hal Horowitz

From the venue:

Grayson Capps live at Eddie’s Attic!

Hailing from South Alabama and spending over a decade in New Orleans, revered singer-songwriter Grayson Capps has found listeners the world over enthralled by his stinging tales of the Southern Gothic. Over the course of seven critically acclaimed studio albums and a cameo appearance in the Golden Globe Award-nominated film ‘A Love Song For Bobby Long,’ one will find stunning depth to Capps’ discography, authenticating Capps as a rare American gem—equal parts country singer, bluesman, rock star, philosopher and poet.

JamBase declares, “Southern marvel Grayson Capps is alive and well and slowly building one of the most phenomenal songbooks in America today. If ever there were a cat primed to pick up where Lowell George and John Prine have left off, it’s Capps,” while American Songwriter calls him, “one of Americana’s most talented and under recognized artists.”

On tour in support of his latest studio album, Heartbreak, Misery & Death, for this latest recording, the beloved Alabama-based troubadour— joined by his long-standing guitarist Corky Hughes—turns his attention to 16 classic folk songs and traditionals originally written and performed by artists ranging from Doc Watson and Jerry Jeff Walker to Randy Newman and Gordon Lightfoot. Introduced to these timeless touchstones as a child by his father, they’d catalyze Capps’ love for music at a young age, while informing the vernacular he so eloquently explores in his own body of work.
