For almost two decades, seven albums and a career that’s been hailed as “where Cormac McCarthy meets Copperhead Road”, Knight has always let his music do the talking. On record, as well as from roadhouse taverns to major-city concert halls, his songs have had plenty to say. But with his latest (eighth) album Little Victories (2012), Chris Knight has taken the discussion to a whole new level. Little Victories is a record of honest poetry from an artist who’s come into his own. For a performer who’s been compared over the years to Cash, Prine, Earle and Springsteen, Knight now stands as a singer/songwriter who has carved out his own sound and sensibility. Knight has said “I’m really proud of this record, and it’ll be fun to play these songs live. For people who like my music and maybe even for someone hearing me for the first time, I think they’ll find songs on here that mean something to them and they can hang on to. I don’t want to talk about it too much, but I think people are gonna be surprised.” Where: Hill Country Brooklyn When: Saturday October 18th Time: 930/10pm $20/25 For more information on Chris Knight visit his official website Watch "Framed" here
