Details:
Salvation Road, the debut solo album from Bart Ferguson is the beginning of a new road for this 15-year rock veteran. Featuring the strongest songs Bart has ever written, Salvation Road is a musical history lesson for those who have never known his music. For long-time fans, it''s an amazing collection of some past highlights with a new musical direction.
Comparisons have surfaced ranging from John Mellencamp to Counting Crows, but it''s not just a musical comparison, it''s also very lyrical. "I''ve always written about real people or real situations. Nothing is fiction" Bart says. "All of these things really happened or really became feelings. I''m not invested in fictional songs and I think that''s what makes these songs so important to me." When you peel back the layers, the words reveal true, sometimes heartbreaking stories. Take "Will You Stay With Me Tonight", a hooky, upbeat sing-along that remains in your head like a jingle. The music wraps itself around a story based on the 9/11 tragedy. "Not to be irreverent, but I read a story that told how the one-night-stand rate in New York hit an all time high in the days after 9/11. I thought about how people were just trying to find comfort in companionship and how that tragedy hurt the people living right there and the story began to unfold inside of the music I''d written" he says. Another, "Wagon Wheel" tells the true story of Bart taking the long 4-mile walk home in the cold and rain one night after his girlfriend drove away from their evening date. Salvation Road is a road that winds its way through the rock and pop world with relative ease. The lyrics serve as a hint to the deeper meaning and truth behind not only the music and life, but to Bart himself.
