Broken Wheel

This is the second album and the first national release for New York-based Andrew Hunt. He discretely informs N.Y. punk rock grittiness from the likes of Lou Reed and the Ramones, but he covers them with production values and country/Americana guitar foundations a la Paul Simon. This CD is a radio-friendly hook-fest that will enjoy cross-over appeal to Adult Alternative, Americana, Roots Country and even rock listeners. Hunt delivers a marketable blend of sophisticated imagery and performing in a very approachable package of humble edginess and honest emotional expression. His simple lyrical wisdom and musical grace will connect with listeners from many genres. He offers the emotions of life's journey without the weariness and self aggrandizement typical of Bob-Dylan wannabes.
