A Prayer For a Field Mouse is 9-songs that explore lives with Sam’s distinctive voice surrounded by melancholy melodies that are sweet. “Tallahassee,” is a good opener. Sam’s voice while not gravelly like Tom Waits or Leonard Cohen, is attractive in a good alt-country singer style. Think Guy Clark crossed with Lyle Lovett.The lyrics get his tales across with poignancy & the song arrangements are never over-bearing. His moderate ass-kicker “Interstate,” has a Bruce Springsteen touch though he never actually sounds like Bruce. A good song for still performing & recording NYC veteran Dion DiMucci to cover. – Americana Highways
