In his career, guitarist/singer
Amos Garrett has played country, folk, rock & roll, jug music, and some jazz. Born in Detroit, he has primarily worked in Canada, being a busy studio guitarist in addition to having his own solo projects. Acoustic Album lives up to its name, featuring
Garrett on a variety of good-time music that includes some swing (including a couple
Hoagy Carmichael tunes), country, folk, and roots music.
Garrett's easygoing and warm baritone voice, friendly style, and fluent guitar picking make Acoustic Album a delightful set, one well worth savoring. ~ Scott Yanow
