A discerning purveyor of hot twang and battered heart honky tonk, Skinny Dyck is equal parts revivalist and visionary. “I love Haggard” quips Skin; both elbows on some hotel bar. An apprentice of the pedal steel guitar and an inventive penman of song, the obvious country music influences don’t serve to demystify his talents. His debut full length LP Get to Know Lonesome sets the bar for lank, loser country that stays honest to its guts.
