Raw Sugar Shed by Joe Fournier
Joe Fournier is a Master practitioner of American roots music. Country soul, folk, rockabilly, blues and just about everything else Hank Williams and Johnny Cash cut their teeth on coming up.
When he’s not busy deep grooving nasty ass hook twang on gee-tar and six shooting straight from the hip, Joe spins yarn through his melodies that make you laugh, cry and cringe, sometimes all in the same verse.
Fournier has a genuine ear for detail and storytelling instincts that never get in the way of a decent riff, like rollin’ up the latest No Depression and gettin’ slapped in the face with it. Don’t knock it till you tried it. RAW SUGAR SHED, Joe Fournier’s 5 STAR Album from 2002.
