![]() Bart Budwig (from the album Another Burn on the Astroturf available on Fluff and Gravy Records) Making sense out of our day-to-day life as adults generally gets a knee-jerk reaction is to look at our inner-child. Bart Budwig sneaks a peak into his past with “Human Again”, telling the tale over a rock’n’roll ruckus, recalling that ‘I was taught a lot about relationships at church and in private school, some helpful, some painful, and some quite strange. I'm still trying to make sense of it all’. The track, and like-minded tunes that looks at the life around him can be found on the recent Bart Budwig release, Another Burn on the Astroturf. The gravelly growl of Bart Budwig creates an urgent croon for the songs of Another Burn on the Astroturf. A warbly voice nostalgically remembers better weather in “The Captain and the Dreamer” as a soulful tone sips “Strong Coffee” on a thick groove as a trumpet floats in “Northern Sky” like a puffy cloud drifting over a piano ramble and meandering guitar strings. Rainbow Girls join Bart Budwig for a discussion on “Socks” that matches losing one of a pair in the dryer to a tale of hearts stuck on a spin cycle. Little things come together to make the day when The Hackles back Bart Budwig on “Four Leaf Clover” as John Craigie comes in to help Bart ponder his purpose in “Rolling Stoned”. A rock’n’roll clatter is the clarion call opening Another Burn on the Astroturf as guitars play tag on first cut “Time for Two” while Bart Budwig lets his voice swing like a pendulum whispering “Oh Mother” and exits the album pocketing “Five Bucks” into a gospel processional march.
