Ohio-bred Tim Easton was the frontman for alt-country outfit the Haynes Boys, which mutated into Burn Barrel right around the time Easton's solo career began to blossom. Easton's second outing under his own name, THE TRUTH ABOUT US, retains ties to the singer-songwriter's past (two standout tunes were written by Burn Barrel frontman J.P. Olsen and country-rock touches abound), but it's also a significant step forward.
Tape loops and snakey guitar effects adorn "Downtown Lights," and Olsen's "Bad Florida" is backed by semi-psychedelic sheets of sound. The more modern touches blend well with the fingerpicked acoustic guitars and gritty vocals, partly due to the fact that Easton is assisted by members of alt-country modernists Wilco. In the end, though, the focus is on Easton's elliptical, poetic lyrics, and laconic, Townes Van Zandt-like vocals, and the songs make it clear that he's got a lot more going on than many contemporary roots-rockers.
