For his eighth studio release, Bruce joins forces with Rodney Crowell to co-produce a collection of new classics reflecting the love and respect he has for the traditions of country music. In his clear-eyed, deeply felt songs, Bruce does what great songwriters have always done: he takes the reality that surrounds us every day and makes it new again. Faded, careworn lives turn out to be rich with meaning when looked at from a slightly different angle, if you'll just take the time... and Robison takes the time. The results are heartbreaking, hilarious, sweet, and stirring, as his songs confirm after a single listen.
Among the first rank of Texas-Songwriters, Bruce's craft is admired by his peers and his creations have been covered by a variety of artists including Garth Brooks, Lee Ann Womack, Gary Allan, wife Kelly Willis, and brother Charlie Robison. Additionally Tim McGraw ("Angry All The Time"), The Dixie Chicks ("Travelin' Soldier"), and George Strait ("Wrapped") each achieved #1 status for their versions of his songs. Bruce Robison doesn't require introductions anymore. He's made himself heard in the hearts of people across the country.The voice and vision of acclaimed alt-country group Bastard Sons of Johnny Cash, is currently touring to support the release of his new CD, Bend In The Road, out September 22, 2009 on his own Texacali Records with distribution by Nashville-based Dualtone Music. In addition, after three successful albums and thousands of gigs fronting Bastard Sons of Johnny Cash, a moniker for which the Man in Black gave his permission and his blessing, Stuart and his crew are driving on under a new name: Mark Stuart and The Bastard Sons, a tag that more accurately reflects the tone of Stuart's music and the direction of his expressive and confident songwriting.
