![]() Jason Erie (from the E.P. The Art of Letting Go available on Eric St. Music) Chiming guitars are an echo of classic times when Jason Erie plugs in and turns up tunes that take a cue from Folk, Country, and Rock song structure while his latest E.P. release, The Art of Letting Go, carves a spot for Rock’n’Roll Americana. Darkness rises up over “Black Lung” as a drum pound beckons on a monotone beat, guitar riffs sparking with electricity as otherworldly harmonies wrap like tendrils of fog around the vocal growl of Jason Erie. Acoustic guitar notes gather for the opening of The Art of Letting Go, the fractured plucks quieting for a story of suburbia, Jason Erie making the hometown souls passing him by the lead characters in “Talking to Chairs” while he counts to three before staging the title track with defeated times and deflated circus tents. The dark of the night and the ‘smell of cocaine’ rise in heat waves when “Lorelai” makes her way through The Art of Letting Go as Jason Erie follows two searchers seeking glory and getting encouragement from a Rock’n’Roll beat soundtrack. Raised in northern New Jersey, Jason Erie tenderly picks out guitar notes to dig into the sad story of “Gold Rush” and has “Conversations with a Bottle” backed by zigzagging guitar licks and frenetic fiddle runs.
