Malcolm Holcombe : Bits & Pieces
“One of the best damn songwriters in the world!” is how Jared Tyler calls his friend and colleague Malcolm Holcombe. And he should know because he has already shared the stage and/or studio with top musicians such as Emmylou Harris, John Moreland, John Fulbright and Jimmy Lafave. And next year it will be 25 years since Malcolm and Jared started working together.
The new album Bits & Pieces was recorded last year, shortly after Malcolm was diagnosed with cancer. Not knowing what the future would bring, the duo decided to record the new album just the two of them. These two musicians feel each other perfectly after such a long collaboration. Jared is an exceptionally good musician, who excels on the necessary string instruments, among other things. Moreover, he intuitively feels exactly what the songs need.
It is now Malcolm's eighteenth album, but he still growls just as passionately and committed. Over the years, Malcolm has perfected his own unique style that is second to none. Fans of his music will undoubtedly once again lovingly embrace Bit & Pieces.
