Joe Henry Artist Snapshot:

One of the most distinctive and original songwriters of his era, Joe Henry kicked around for awhile in the 1980s before hitting his stride as a recording artist in the '90s via a pair of albums with the Jayhawks as his backing band. Subsequently, Henry left the roots-rock approach far behind, incorporating everything from jazz to R&B to electronics. This approach yielded a series of impressive, eclectic albums that brought him wider notice, and made him an important name in contemporary songwriting.

Review

Q (11/03, p.110) - 3 stars out of 5 - "...He has steadily evolved a unique signature, increasingly foregrounding jazz and Tom Waits-like, vaudevillian influences..."
Uncut (11/03, p.110) - 3 stars out of 5 - "...Big melodies, soothing rhythms and some neat jazz jerks: Tiny Voices makes a quiet noise that's worth investigating..."
Mojo (Publisher) (10/03, p.110) - 4 stars out of 5 - "...TINY VOICES finds him forging a new strain of the genre: dreamy, weathered and deceptively romantic....This is the album of his remarkable career..."

Title Note

Personnel: Joe Henry (vocals, guitar); Chris Bruce, Gregg Arreguin (guitar); Don Byron (clarinet, bass clarinet, tenor saxophone); Ron Miles (trumpet); Dave Palmer, Patrick Warren (keyboards); Jennifer Condos (bass); Jay Bellerose (drums, percussion); Jim Keltner (drums); Niki Haris, Jean McClain (background vocals).

Recorded at The Sunset Sound Factory, Hollywwood, California and The Jung Hotel, Pasadena, California between December 2002 & January 2003.

On 2003's TINY VOICES, singer/songwriter Joe Henry sets about immersing the listener in a dreamy, anachronistic atmosphere that's both inviting and slightly foreboding. Continuing in the inventive, mood-driven vein that the Los Angeles-based troubadour established in earnest on 1996's TRAMPOLINE, Henry conjures up a woozy jazz vibe throughout much of this record, aided substantially by the agile contributions of reed man Don Byron and trumpeter Ron Miles. Although Henry downplays immediately catchy pop/rock melodies (a la "Trampoline" and "Stop" from past outings) in favor of creating an extended suite-like whole, there are plenty of fine moments to latch onto, particularly the slinky "Animal Skin" and the shuffling title track, which exemplifies Henry's knack for plaintive vocals and darkly romantic lyrics. With its lack of obvious "singles" or high-profile guests, TINY VOICES serves as a more subtle, though no less affecting, companion piece to 2001's SCAR--an album that takes some time to work its quirky magic, but nevertheless casts a wonderfully hypnotic spell.
