ROYAL FLUSH (GONE MISSING REVIEW)

“The Lonesome Highway has had a lot of casualties over the years. Few survivors like Johnny Cash, Tom Waits, Gram Parsons and Jackson Browne have found a way to capture that struggle, longing, and pain into music that has captured even the most blackest of hearts. Well, it’s time to let little more love into your black heart. His name is Johnny Bennett; his music: sparse and engaging; his lyrics: dark and cutting; his voice: aged with cigarettes, whiskey and broken dreams. It’s only a matter of time that Johnny Bennett will take his place amongst the mavericks, gunslingers and troubadours mentioned above. His new career-defining record, Gone Missing, not only showcases his best vocal performances to date, but also his large range of songwriting and music ideas that have set him far apart from his fellow singer-songwriter peers.”
