AMOS LEE
Supply and Demand, the second studio album from Philadelphia native Amos Lee, illuminates his growth from emerging singer-songwriter to established recording artist. From the sparse, powerful, family elegy Long Line of Pain, to the country-r&b flavored title track, Supply and Demand, this album is rich with big league songwriting, compelling musicianship and captivating vocals.
To follow up his well received 2005 debut, Lee retraced his roots, teaming with producer Barrie Maguire, with whom Lee worked on his earliest studio recordings in 2002. Their latest collaboration, recorded between Philadelphia and Los Angeles, showcases Lees multifarious writing style with dynamic arrangements and a well suited sonic palate set forth by engineers Shane Smith and Jim Bottari.
When asked if he felt the pressure typically associated with sophomore albums, Lee explained, People are always asking whats next, but as a songwriter it can be a bit troubling to get too far ahead of yourself. Most of my life these days is spent either performing songs Ive already written, thinking about songs that are half finished, or starting new tunes. Im aware of peoples expectations, but my job is to serve the song, and thats what I focus on. (less)
