The year is coming to an end soon and before starting to compile the end of the year list, I better go through some (well at least this one) late favourites. One of them is Ronnie Fauss and his debut full-length I Am the Man You Know I’m Not. This alt-country singer-songwriter already had a few impressive EPs under his belt, but hopefully the release of this great debut album will draw even more attention to him. This is all high quality stuff ranging from uptempo country rockers to beautiful country ballads. I enjoy the whole thing apart from Sin City cover, because no other version can come even close the original. I Am the Man You Know I’m Not came out on the fairly new New West imprint Normaltown Records. That’s a label that I’m going to keep an eye on. First this great Ronnie Fauss release and soon in january 2013, Normaltown will release Come Cry With Me, the new album by the marvellous Canadian country troubadour Daniel Romano. But more about Daniel in january. Now it’s time for Ronnie. This is I Don’t See You from the new album.
