Brooklyn-based Bret Mosley has released his first studio album Light & Blood on Woodstock MusicWorks ... thirteen tracks recorded over a two-day span in March 2007 by Pete Caigan (Bad Brains, Tony Levin) at Flymax Studio in Woodstock, NY, and mixed by Grammy-nominated engineer Roman Klun (Sarah McLachlan.)
Every track on Light & Blood was performed live with no overdubs or punch-ins. The result is at once lean and lush ... a smouldering confessional work ... soulful Americana laced with a driving groove.
Bret Mosely topped off 2007 with a bang, invited to sit in with the renowned Jerry Joseph on a late-night set after the SRO Light & Blood NYC release party. 2008 highlights so far include opening for Big Brother and The Holding Company, and Blind Boys of Alabama.
' ... roots folk rock at its best ... Quietly stunning in its seemingly simple beauty ... and runs through the gamut of spiritual emotion without hurry or worry ... it reminds us to relax and listen. Just listen.' ~ Kenya Jones, ACED Magazine
'His vocals have a soulful, warm easy edge, never forced and flowing over a song like Water Girl as if Van Morrison had come from a sharecroppers' farm.' ~ Paul Kerr, americana-uk.com
