Jesse Daniel makes his living on the road, but he never really left home. Not in his heart, at least.I grew up in the San Lorenzo Valley on Californias Central Coast, he explains, and I carry it with me everywhere I go. The mountains and creeks and redwoods, all the people who lived and worked and died there, theyre what made me the artist I am today.Son of the San Lorenzo, Daniels extraordinary new album, is more than just a tribute to home, though; its a story of triumph and perseverance, of love and sacrifice, of growth and transformation. Recorded live to tape at The Bomb Shelter in Nashville, the collection offers up a candid accounting of Daniels remarkable journey, from his early years hitchhiking in the shadow of the Santa Cruz Mountains to his tumultuous adolescence and battles with addiction to the people (and music) that ultimately saved his life. The songs are raw and cathartic, steeped in longing and fueled by deep, unflinching introspection, and the performances (including a guest appearance from Charles Wesley Godwin) are warm and timeless, blending the classic sound Daniels become known for with the California country rock he was raised on. Put it all together and youve got a lush, cinematic work of reflection and rebirth from an artist committed to personal and sonic evolution, an album that embraces the past while keeping its gaze fixed firmly on the future.
