Spencer Durham
Much More Than Words
Cavender Castle

Durham, an 18-year-old singer/songwriter/guitarist from Georgia, is backed on his sophomore album (he released his first at 15) by some of the best musicians Atlanta and Athens have to offer: the Randall Bramblett Band.

Bramblett, who played saxophone and keyboards on many a Capricorn Records release in the ’70s, contributes keyboards and organ on six tracks. Drummer Gerry Hansen produced and plays drums.

Put this slide-guitar-heavy outfit in the same studio with Durham, whose aggressive “rhythm-lead” acoustic technique makes one guitar sound like two or three, and the result is on a par with Cowboy’s “Boyer & Talton” or the Freddy Jones Band’s “Waiting for the Night.”

More than the instrumentation, however, it’s his voice and writing – seasoned beyond the average high school senior troubadour’s – that move Durham well past “southern-rock wannabe.”
