Tex, J
Neon Sign & Littles White Lies
OVERVIEW
If you hadnt heard J.Tex before, then this album will convert you into a believer-prepare to be baptized in the church
of his guitar and voice. Jens is a legend in the making, hailing from Copenhagen, but with roots that grow deep in
Detroit. His lyrics, style, and passion for music are little bits and pieces of history in the making, homages to the
traditions that are the roots and Americana musical genres. The songs presented here on this album are like constant
little reminders that we and the world around us are all works in progress, that with the passage of time, we grow and
change, and that there is always room to wonder. Simply put, its to just go with the flow.
Jens and his band have laid down some serious tracks here, re-envisioning older songs from their repertoire, while also
blessing us with some killer new material. Take the track, "This Old Banjo" which appeared previously on the album Old
Ways vs New Days. Here, the tempo is up, its almost chasing you like a wild river running underneath the hull of a canoe
going down stream. The tone, its darker, its matured. This older song has grown into itself, its hit a tough point in
its life but it means business and it is going to fight for what it wants. Just like all of us right now in this
godforsaken pandemic.
So, come on in, and get ready for an awakening. This is Americana and Roots at its core. Its J.Tex at his best. Like his
material here, he too, has grown and matured. Producing an organic and pure reflection of everything going on in the
middle of a mans life. So hop on in, come along for the journey.
