Black Top Road

• Track Listing

'Black Top Road' is an essential album...a classic from the Alaskan wilderness..9 out of 10 stars!!' Dan Wilkinson - AmericanaUK -------------- 'Brilliant!' John Richards, John in the Morning, KEXP FM Seattle -------------- 'This Seattle-born, Alaska-based singer-songwriter debuts with a jaw-dropping set of beautifully crafted country-folk. Kanzler has a fine, expressive voice with a touch of gravel and his melodies are often sublime, reminiscent at times of early Dylan. The warm, rich production is also flat-out gorgeous, with trumpets, mandolin, dobro, pedal steel and harmonica adding lots of rootsy color to a variety of stunning, fully-realized songs. Incredibly, Kanzler has been living in the woods of the Alaskan interior for the past few years in a cabin with no running water and recorded this album up there with locals - it's just mind-blowing, considering how great it sounds.' Don Yates - Music Director, KEXP 90.3 FM Seattle -------------- "This CD is SO good... a real pleasure...Great songs, catching melodies, perfect vocals and subtle arrangements. It made my day!" Mike Penard - RadioISA (France) ---------------- 'I get a load of CDs through every day but these songs, singing, playing and production really stand out.' Tom Fahey - AmericanaOK Leith FM --------------.
