In the spirit of Tom Petty, Lucinda Williams and Jay Farrar, John Haydon is alt-country at its best. For five years, Haydon has delivered New England-based audiences songs written from the heart and built to last.
She's Gone is Haydon's third album and sophomore project with renowned local producer Pete Weiss at Zippah Recording Studios. A follow-up to the acclaimed EP, This Time, She's Gone is a collection of classic country-rock sensibility and outstanding musicianship. From rockers "You Got Me Lost" and "Blue Sue" to radio-ready "This Time" and the haunting "Broken Too", Haydon has emerged as a serious alt-country contender. What the critics say: "For the No Depression set; old school all the way its aching lyrics and longing harmonies are proof that the heart of alternative country is still beating. The songs are a study of the similarities between Hank Williams and AC/DC." - Yoursound.com "Buddy Holly-meets-Hank Williams heartbreak tempered by a Rhett Miller new-world perspective..." - Boston Globe "Quality roots music... twang and pang!" - Boston Herald "This is an incredibly good, country-folk album. While Haydon's voice would fit perfectly in any folk festival, it is also accessible to a roots-rock crowd. Ah, versatility. Definitely 'A' material!" - Shredding Paper "Play the group's new CD in between a Johnny Cash or Tom Petty disc and you'd never guess these boys are yanks from Boston." - Citysearch.com "Like-minded night crawlers should check out John Haydon" - Boston Globe "It wouldn't be a surprise to walk into a roadside cafe in the western plains of Texas to find John Haydon and his band huddled on a small stage in the back, quietly strumming their brand of twang and modern pop like a seasoned house band. Play the group's new CD in between a Johnny Cash or Tom Petty disc and you'd never guess these boys are yanks from Boston." - Citysearch.com Below are 3 demos for next years record, which will be recorded and produced at Zippah by the masterful Pete Weiss!
