About this product
Malcolm Holcombe is a survivor. Most recently, a cancer survivor, so it's a real gift to have this, his 18th album of brilliant vignettes and expressive musicianship. Shortly after his diagnosis in 2022, he and Jared Tyler decided to get these songs recorded, just the two of them, not knowing what the future held in store for them. To musicians, giving life to new songs can feel as critical as life's most basic needs. If a completed album can come from it, all the better. Jared Tyler is the musical shadow of Malcolm able to anticipate his next moves, predict what's needed when, and provide just the right embellishment and backbone on harmonies, guitars, mandola, dobro, banjo, etc. Jared produced this album, along with Brian Brinkerhoff. No one can fully get inside the musical mind of the great Malcolm Holcombe, but Jared comes as close as anyone ever could. You can memorize his lyrics, you can witness the awe and power and transcendent experience of his live performances, but you still won't be absolutely certain that you see exactly what he's seeing. And that's but one of his many attributes. One that has perhaps made contemporaries like Emmylou Harris, Lucinda Williams, Steve & Justin Townes Earle, and Iris DeMent fans of his. Malcolm Holcombe singer, songwriter, survivor. He survives thanks in part to the fire and passion and conscience that you witness in his craft.

Produced by the team of Brian Brinkerhoff, Dave Roe and Jared Tyler, 'Tricks of the Trade' finds Malcolm's trademark growl and impeccable lyrics surrounded by a great studio band that includes Roe on bass and longtime musical cohort, Tyler on electric guitar, dobro, and background vocals. With Holcombe's uncanny ability to tap into the collective consciousness of a nation that is currently starving for anything that can latch onto and help soothe it's soul, these songs are among the best in his illustrious catalog. Adding to the depth and beauty of the album are special guest vocalists, Mary Gauthier and Jaimee Harris.Disc 1 Money Train / Misery Loves Company / IntoThe Sunlight / Crazy Man Blues / Your Kin / Damn RainyDay / Higher Ground / Good Intentions / On TennesseeLand / Lenora Cynthia / Tricks Of The Trade / / ShakyGround and Bonus track Windows Of Amsterdam

2017 from the singer songwriter. Produced by Darrell Scott and recorded at The Sanctuary and Hippie Jack's studios, the album is his 15th studio recording and follows 2016's Another Black Hole. InchMalcolm Holcombe is an artist of deep mystery and high art,Inch says producer Darrell Scott. InchHe is who I listen to, and have for over 20 years-this record goes on my list of Inchworking with my heroesInch-all the goods that I value in songs and artistry are in Malcolm-the real deal.Inch An acclaimed contemporary of Emmylou Harris and Steve Earle, and an Inchemotionally captivatingInch (Isthmus) performer, Holcombe has shared the stage with Merle Haggard, Richard Thompson, John Hammond, and Leon Russell. Born and raised in the Blue Ridge Mountains of North Carolina, Holcombe's Inchheartfelt baritoneInch (NPR) poignantly delivers Inchhaunted country, acoustic blues and rugged folkInch (Rolling Stone) with lyrics that invite you in, sit you down, and speak directly to you.
Emotional Oil is the missing link in Octagrape's wild early 4-track jam spigot. InchEternal HairInch is Jason Begin's first octasong, with Glen Galloway scrawling mad vocal lines about careening tornado phobias and mistaken identity over top. InchTeenage BaboonsInch is a song about Jell-O sunlight capturing and pixilating all possible future nostalgias. InchSovietsInch A monster riff Glen somehow unearthed while connecting Major Stars to Modulo 1000 and bouncing low sparks off a couple slap back glammed out verses. It pulls it's cold-war glow from a secret stash of ancient vacuum tube storerooms hidden deep in the San Bernardino mountains; keep your comrade warm. The EP's closer is Inch9-Eyed LionInch, and it bulldozes like some schlep ghostwriting songs about unanimous relating with Mott the Hoople. There's a clear sense of the royal stalking pain of a ravenous beast that's got you and yours completely surrounded, keeping the entire village up in shifts all night. Lighters. There is conquest, drool, saber-rattling, capture/freedom, and a roaring return to the question, InchWas it ever?Inch the B-side features an etching by John Ringhofer (Half-handed Cloud) as an interpretation of a young Jude Galloway doodle. Cutaway all the mind is a stage. All the required stages are out of sequence. There is a podium and a feeding-back mic for you to sing epically through to your own frontal lobe.
