CD Review Brad Collerick - Cottonwood

By , About.com Guide

What can one say about Brad Collerick's newest CD entitled Cottonwood?
Well I for one could not take it out of my cd player! He runs the full gamut of Americana, bluegrass, country with a hit of easy rock thrown in.

One can expect to hear reminisces of John Denver, Bill Monroe, Johnny Cash all tied together in a wonderful array of artfully written, arranged, and produced tunes.
All are very tastefully put together and you can easily feel the love that Brad Collerick put into this project.

It's bluegrass without the heavy traditional backwoods feeling.
It's light and airy John Denver without going sugary sweet.
It's Johnny Cash without the outlaw wail.

Brad also wrote or co-wrote all songs on this cd. His songwriting ability rivals that of John Denver. Even the artwork in the cd is magnificent.

My Favorite track? Well I couldn't pick just one since there's so much good music on this cd - I LOVE them all. I would highly recommend this cd to someone just getting into country music as well as the Indy country music fan.

Lowdown: When is his next cd being released- we can't wait!
It's just about beyond belief that some Music Row Exec hasn't signed Brad Collerick yet.
