Sounds Like: The Dallas Observer says: "2007’s No Worse for The Wear EP was one of the best local releases of the year..." Read the full entry here . “No Worse for the Wear, Dylan Sneed's recently released EP, features quiet but intense country/folk that comes across like Leo Kottke covering Paul Simon.” “Rich and rewarding, Sneed's songs have a sly humor and an offbeat charm that makes their religious underpinnings all the more convincing.” “...Sneed's way with melody and phrase sets him firmly in the A-list of area tunesmiths.” “...Sneed represent[s] the best side of true Americana: music of passion and skill that can move an audience with a whisper or a roar.” Read the full review here . “<[i>No Worse For The Wear] is by far [Dylan’s] best release as it incorporates elements of the literate emotionalism of Paul Simon and James Taylor and the earthy candor of The Band and Townes Van Zandt. Sneed's songs are inherently spiritual with narratives that pose some big questions about devotion and relationships, both personal and mystical.” “Songs such as ‘Look Inside’ and ‘What I Love, What I Fear’ are richly arranged odes to finding one's way in this world, be that through religion or just having a place to lay one's head.” “Spiritual without being sanctimonious, Sneed's songs are about the doubt that must accompany all faith.” Read the full article here . The Fort Worth Weekly says: “No Worse for the Wear...is hands down [Dylan’s] best effort yet.” “The disc is a strong, clear-eyed collection of snapshots of life and faith sans conventional godly sledgehammer devices. Sneed’s approach to songcraft is graceful and no doubt heavily inspired by Paul Simon, Woody Guthrie, and a few other giants of hearty folk music. His saccharine-free lyrics and honey-grained vocals are what distinguish Sneed’s handiwork as his own and keep it from being the least bit imitative.” “Even though No Worse for the Wear is an e.p., it’s epic. Listening to it gives you the feeling of peering into an articulate, worldly person’s thoughts as he contemplates Big Ideas.” Read the full review here . Present Magazine.com says: “Whether live or recorded, Sneed is a Texas troubadour worth hearing on stage no matter how large or small.” “His performance in the small alcove at Pot Pie [Kansas City, MO] demonstrated his soft-spoken wit, elegant and fragile songs exploring the world around him, and a fine ability to pick angelic melodies on guitar.” “His cover of Cyndi Lauper's "Girls Just Want to Have Fun" is sheer delight.” Read the full article here . The Clarion Ledger says: “...music that evokes the spirit of greats like Paul Simon, James Taylor and more roots-oriented acts like Townes Van Zandt and Woody Guthrie.” Read the full review here . Boca Tinta.com says: “...responsible for one of my most favorite releases of 2007.” “...every bit of production on the EP <[i>No Worse For The Wear] is done with the perfect amount of understated flair.” Read the full entry here . Austinsound.net says: “...the charming ‘What I Love, What I Fear’ especially does a good job in demonstrating Dylan’s need to reclaim the life of someone not tethered to a desk by providing an atmosphere that feels as if the song could subtly float away into space at any moment. Another standout, ‘What I Thought,’ features a more stripped sound that focuses instead on the vocals and the lyrics. It’s in there that another indicator of needing something bigger lies, especially in earnest and introspective quips like: ‘I thought they’d be callin’ me a rock star by now’ and ‘Life’s not what I thought it’d be / It is just what it is.’” “...No Worse For The Wear is a solid, accessible effort that suggests some promise for the young songwriter...” Read the full review here . ----------------------------------------------------------- Request my tunes on these radio stations: Texas KUT , Austin 512.471.2345 KHYI , Dallas 972.633.0953 KTCU , Fort Worth 817.257.7631 KPFT , Houston 713.526.5738 KTRU , Houston 713.348.KRTU Tennessee WVRU , Nashville 615.322.ROCK and 615.421.ROCK Georgia WUGA , Athens 706.542.9842 South Carolina WUSC , Columbia 803.576.9872 Louisiana Hootenanny Power on WRKF , Baton Rouge taylor@wrkf.org North Carolina WGWG , Boiling Springs/Shelby 704-406-3525 album price DYLAN SNEED: No Worse For The Wear EP $6.00 DYLAN SNEED: What I Thought $10.00 Choose how many, and click Orders sent by CD Baby - the fastest, safest, and easiest place to buy CDs online.
