Sam Morrow - Ephemeral '2014

Tracks list

       Debut full length from Singer Songwriter Sam Morrow. Released on Forty
Below Records

Two years before releasing Gettin' By on Gettin' Down — the most
guitar-driven, groove-heavy album of Sam Morrow's catalog, with songs that roll
just as hard as they rock — Morrow hit the highway in support of his
third record, Concrete & Mud. Despite the 28-year-old being a road warrior for
years, this time things felt different. Joined by a band of amplified
roots-rockers, Morrow spent eighteen months traveling halfway across the world,
playing Concrete & Mud songs to the biggest audiences of his career. By the time
the dust settled, he'd become a staple of Americana radio on both sides of the
Atlantic, with outlets like Rolling Stone and NPR singing his praises.

Those road miles set the stage for Gettin' By on Gettin' Down, a modern album
that revisits — and reshapes — the primordial sounds of
hip-shaking rock & roll. These nine songs are rooted in grease, grit, and
groove, from the swampy soul of "Round 'N Round" to the funky syncopation of
"Rosarita" to the hook-laden rock of "Money Ain't a Thing." There's hardly an
acoustic guitar in sight; instead, amplifiers and guitar pedals rule the roost,
with everything driven forward by percussive rhythms that owe as much to R&B as
country music. Written and recorded in the wake of Concrete & Mud's acclaimed
tour, Gettin' By on Gettin' Down doubles down on the electrified fire and fury
of Sam Morrow's live shows, with a road-ready band joining him on every song.
