Album Is A Touchstone For Bluegrass/Americana
— Greg Victor, ParcBench
NASHVILLE, TN, UNITED STATES, August 13, 2024 /EINPresswire.com/ — Daryl Mosley’s fourth solo album for Pinecastle Records, LONG DAYS & SHORT STORIES, is set for October 4 release. The 11-track offering, produced by Mosley and The Grascals’ Danny Roberts, is diverse and multi-layered, running the gamut from Bluegrass to Gospel and from Americana to Country.
Throughout, Daryl’s rich voice tells tales that remind us of the fragility of man while highlighting the possibilities before us. Dedicated to preserving and sharing the “small town” values that keep him grounded – faith, family, honesty, and humility – Mosley’s new collection offers up a touchstone for the Bluegrass/Americana genre. LONG DAYS & SHORT STORIES is available for pre-save now.
The album’s first single, “When The Good Old Days Were New,” is creating a buzz at radio, rising to the Top 5 on multiple charts and in regular rotation on SiriusXM. The soon-to-be-standard inspirational “When I Can’t Reach Up” (featuring Gospel greats Jeff and Sheri Easter) offers a study in the power of lyrical astuteness and melodic restraint, while the engaging “Me And Mr. Howard” takes another direction entirely as it rambunctiously relates the true tale of Jesse James’ time in Mosley’s hometown of Waverly, Tennessee.
Love and romance are the subject of “Forever After All,” while faith prevails in the heartfelt Gospel masterpiece, “You Never Gave Up On Me.” Members of the award-winning Bluegrass group New Tradition guest star on the up-tempo, Oak Ridge Boys-esque Gospel singalong, “Still The Solid Rock,” while the emotional, empathy laden bonus track “I’m Still Here” (Piano/Vocal version featuring Sarah Davison) closes the album.
Fans can keep up with the latest news, upcoming tour dates and more on Daryl’s official website, Facebook, Instagram, and YouTube.
