The shorthand rock-speak for this Seattle-based singer/songwriter’s debut collection of full-band Americana could be “Wilco meets Springsteen.” With a raspy voice that sounds scarred by whiskey and cigars—certainly older than an early thirtysomething—it’s easy to make comparisons to The Boss and Jeff Tweedy. Kingsbery was raised in a devout Christian Scientist household; it’s hard to not get a whiff of autobiography when he sings “Whatever happened to that good Christian boy/I hear he is a mess got the devil on his breath” on "Devil in His Heart." But these aim to be iconic songs: they're tales of love and loss that swing for the rafters via small details. Kingsbery doesn’t always succeed, but on rousing, smart numbers like “Tell Me What He Looks Like” and “Nyquil and Wine,” one could easily imagine them sung by Dwight Yoakum, or at least playing behind him in a movie.
