Review

Spin (p.104) - 3 stars out of 5 -- "His fifth and most graceful album nurtures the hushed, wispy harmonies of 2006's MAKERS..."
Alternative Press (p.168) - 4 stars out of 5 -- "Votolato masterfully blends the delicate with the hearty in a way that many chase but few capture. Poetic Americana for fans of substance and sentiment."
Magnet (p.111) - "It's a strong poison, straight-up, but Votolato has a gift for making the bleakest misery sound inviting, with just enough sweetness to go down smooth and melodies so pretty they can almost make pain go away."
No Depression (p.107) - "[T]here's a lot to like about his voice, and about his sense of melody and arrangement on songs such as 'The Wrong Side of Reno' and 'The Blue Rose'..."

Title Note

Personnel: Rocky Votolato (acoustic guitar); Casey Foubert (acoustic guitar); Rick Steff (accordion); Bill Herzog (bass guitar); James McAlister (drums).

Seattle-based alt-folkie Rocky Votolato's BRAG AND CUSS is that staple of singer-songwriter pop, the loosely connected concept album about life on the road. The indie-era equivalent of Jackson Browne's RUNNING ON EMPTY, BRAG AND CUSS features songs about homesickness, wanderlust, and the aging process ("Postcard From Kentucky," "The Wrong Side of Reno," and "The Old Holland,"to name a few). Recording with a full band featuring a banjo player and organist, Votolato mines the early sound of the Band alongside contemporaries like Iron and Wine or Ryan Adams.
