Magic Season by Ash Ganley Ash Ganley : Magic Season.
 Masterfully nuanced aaa rock.

Magic Season is Ash's latest record (2011) and contains his most engaging, addictive and potent songwriting to date. For Ash, this is what you get after years of being a humble apprentice to many a disparate muse, absorbing everything and anything musical, touring and recording with bands ranging from Reggae to Rock to Funk to Folk and beyond, always pushing, always distilling it down, finding your voice and searching for the elusive themes running between it all.

Ash's influences are apparent on Magic Season, but you may have to blur your ears to hear them, for they reveal themselves more as mood and character, rather than stylistically. Kelly Joe Phelps, Tom Petty, Chris Whitley, Del Amitri, Steve Earl. Cormac McCarthy, Sergio Leone, Enio Morricone, Robert Natkin. They are all there, some hidden, some open. Call it Modern Americana, New Roots Rock, call it Country music with city lyrics, or singer-songwriter folk rock with a heavy current of desert-mescaline contemplation of fate, it's all these things and more. Somehow dark yet positive, Magic Season is an album of depth and nuance seldom heard on any level. Enjoy the magic!
