Tim Barry – Clear Blocks Ahead (CD)
Product Details
Richmond's favorite freight-hopping folk punk lifer has spent two decades earning the kind of credibility that can't be manufactured, building a loyal following through relentless touring and unflinching honesty about working-class life. Recording at Spacebomb marks a genuine creative pivot, placing Barry's road-worn storytelling inside one of Virginia's most storied studios, home to a house band known for lush, organic arrangements that breathe life into singer-songwriter material.
The latest installment in the musical life of Tim Barry, clear blocks ahead, chronicles these post-pandemic years of dad life, train travel, confounding relationships, and nostalgic queries into the lives of old friends and past acquaintances. Breaking the creative pattern of his last several albums, Tim Barry recorded these tracks at the legendary spacebomb studio in Richmond with the house band as his main players. Coming into her own musically, his daughter lela jane barry lays down harmonizing vocal tracks. His unique perspectives and commentary, delivered in his signature musical style, will have his fans young and old singing along again and again.
