Sherman Ewing - Come and Meet Me (2018)

'Come and Meet Me' is a confident statement from an indie rocker who has earned praise from USA Today, Relix, No Depression, Jambands, NY-1 TV and elsewhere, generating rave reviews and comparisons to Bob Dylan and George Harrison, among others. Respected critic Elysa Gardner, in USA Today, said that Ewing's songs "have a wry lyricism that suggests a hard-won emotional integrity." His new album, which ranges from full rock band to spare acoustic folk, was Produced by Anthony Krizan (Spin Doctors, Lenny Kravitz,) and Mastered by Grammy-winner Greg Calbi (Paul Simon, Patti Smith). On the CD's inspiring title track, Ewing channels Morrison in a soulful, old-school rallying cry about friendship, community and love. On the witty, propulsive 'Everything is Beautiful', Ewing evokes the 'smart rock' of R.E.M.'s 'Automatic For The People', and finds joy in life's simplest pleasures - it's an anthem for the 'everyman'.
