New American Language (2001) more music like this

by Dan Bern

Like Jim White's contemporaneous No Such Place, Dan Bern's New American Language attempts to reconfigure the American cultural landscape by appropriating images and converting them to the mysterious currency of strange folk music. Stylistically, Bern is firmly in the tradition of the folk revival, with a significantly more electric sound than on ...

Fleeting Days (2003) more music like this

by Dan Bern

With Fleeting Days, singer/songwriter Dan Bern seems to finally escape from the formidable influence of Bob Dylan on his songwriting. Instead, the 13 songs presented here take their cues more often from the likes of Elvis Costello and Bruce Springsteen (more the former than the later). Ultimately, though, Bern is his own man. The rampant ...

My Country II [EP] (2004) more music like this

by Dan Bern & the IJBC

Folkie Dan Bern subtitling his My Country II "Music to beat Bush by" places him firmly to the left in the debate surrounding the 2004 presidential election. But Bern is a strong songwriter, and he emphasizes My Country II's music over its message. He's definitely not a fan of 43, but there's more on Bern's mind than regime change. Dylan meets ...

Dog Boy Van [EP] (1997) more music like this

by Dan Bern

Issued in 1997 by Work Records, Dan Bern's six-song EP Dog Boy Van was originally released independently in 1996, before his signing with the label. The record, like his self-titled debut for Work, kicks off with "Jerusalem" (the same recording), but what follows are five witty, insightful, moving tunes that hold their own next to his best work. ...

The Swastika (2002) more music like this

by Dan Bern

Bruce Springsteen tapped into America's collective pain in order to initiate the process of healing. Steve Earle wanted Americans to understand what sort of mindset led to its infliction. Both were worthy ideals. Dan Bern joined the shortlist of major songwriters reacting to the tragic circumstances of 9-11 with his The Swastika EP and chose a ...

Smartie Mine (1999) more music like this

by Dan Bern

Prolific writers need an outlet for their vast output, and the independently issued double disc Smartie Mine provides such a channel for Dan Bern. Following closely on the tail of the Ani DiFranco-produced Fifty Eggs (March 1998), Smartie Mine is his second record of the year and fourth in three years. Seemingly aimed at the converted and sold ...
