About This Item
Red marble colored vinyl. Hailing from, and proudly remaining in, the river town of Jeffersonville, Indiana, singer-songwriter and guitar virtuoso Nick Dittmeier has spent more than a decade chronicling Midwestern lives through a sharp, evolving blend of roots music. Backed by the Sawdusters-Shelley Anderson on bass and Chase Palmer on drums-the trio has built it's reputation through relentless touring across the U.S. and Europe and a steady run of records grounded in narrative songwriting and grit. Their latest album, Apparition, pivots toward a more direct, visceral sound. Recorded in Louisville, the record opens with the kinetic instrumental InchRecklessInch before diving into propulsive alt-country on InchRevenge,Inch a gospel-tinged meditation on temptation and consequence. Elsewhere, InchAll Downhill From HereInch blends Midwestern twang with New Orleans funk, while the eerie InchScratching at Your Back DoorInch leans into the tension between classic murder ballads and modern true-crime obsession. Songs like InchOut in the ColdInch and InchBlack Dad / White MomInch anchor the album in history and autobiography, balancing tradition with lived experience. With Apparition, Nick Dittmeier and the Sawdusters deliver their most direct and confident album yet, an electrifying account of real lives and long miles. Album Tracks 1. Reckless 2. Revenge 3.
