Widely regarded as one of the most outstanding underground American songwriters of our time, Cass McCombs marks his decade-long career with the release of Big Wheel and Others, out next week on Domino Records. Some of the genres that are to be found on this 22 song album are: road songs, rock songs, folk songs, blues songs, country songs, rhythm and blues songs, skronk non-songs, cinema songs, cult songs, poem songs, jams, and ballads – to use however you wish. It’s brimming with McCombs’ gift for evocative storytelling, discerning introspection, and heartrending melody delivered through a haze of mystery and romance.
