Album Notes

This is Ford Turrell's debut record. All the tracks were recorded live with the band over the course of just four days. This effort was made in order to really capture the creative spirit of the players and emotional reach of the songs. The record was mixed by Jacquire King.

"Ford Turrell's self-titled debut introduces us to a talented young artist to watch. Turrell's well-crafted songs and rootsy, organic sound will appeal to fans of Ray LaMontagne or David Gray, and his poetic lyrics will have you hanging on every word. A promising debut from a promising artist." -Abby White, Music Editor Performing Songwriter Magazine

"I wonder if an artist this thoughtful isn't up to something more profound than a well-painted picture. His instantaneous popularity suggests an enlightened existential awareness made so real the songs become tangible entities, accessible worlds for a listener to inhabit and make his/her own. His current release, Ford Turrell, lands loads of attention from online listeners all over the world and radio DJ's across the nation." -Amiestreet

"Ford Turrell’s easy style and good blending of everything musical makes for a fun, soulful listen"-Delusions of Grandeur Review

"Ford Turrell paints powerful musical pictures on his exquisitely produced debut -- whispery, rootsy rock with a David Gray/John Mayer feel."-Grand Rapids Press

"This music reflects this journey of unknowing. Ford's poetically crafted lyrics and authentic, intimate voice reflect the rich descriptions of a world without epiphany or definitive answers, open to possibility, infinite explanation, and multiple truths. This is music which reflects its creator, with a question mark at the end, not a period." -Writer B. Gallaher

"Ford Turrell will likely be an artist that you can say you heard him first when a year or two from now he's being played on all the top 40 radio stations. The phrase "only a matter of time" fits nicely." -The Album Project Review
