Singer-songwriter David Rosenbloom crafts original songs marked by a strong and personal poetic vision. Along with his intense decades-long experimental work with bands Chinese Puzzle and the Electric Chorus & Orchestra, and performing stateside and abroad with Glenn Branca (with Sonic Youth bandmates Lee Ranaldo and Thurston Moore), he works with the Outlanders to vein the mine of his folk roots. Two albums of original tunes have been released, with a third on the way.
"David Rosenbloom and the Outlanders prove that there's plenty of rich territory to be mined in the reaches of poetic folk-rock ... it's his lyrics, with their religious overtones and their unsentimental examination of the mysterious human ability to punctuate stretches of inexplicable gloom with flights of spontaneous joy, that place Rosenbloom in the great trad ition of the late 20th century poetic masters of song." Jon Sobel for THEGLOBAL MUSE.COM
"Real masterpieces! Very expressive Bob Dylan storytelling voice, strong lyrics and a beautiful rootsy sound." Ray Pieters, Radio Milo, Belgium
