Bio
A totally unique and contemporary approach to a tradition as old as music itself. Gibson is one of the few that have managed to capture the true spirit of what "People music" is all about.
With a style that can't be learned...only experienced, he warms his audience by the campfire of "Dust bowl Americana" and invites them to share a swig of "Greenwich village hipness" as he serves up a healthy portion of "Surprise Stew" chocked full of tasty insights about the world around us.
Singer, Songwriter, Musician, Poet, Historian, Teacher and activist. Guitar pickin', harp tootin' word slinger. Not a novelty act, or retro oddity...the real Deal!
About
Won't be tread upon... Don't know what you're thinkin', but if it involves tryin' to tell me what to do...SHOVE OFF!!!
Lexitown...A fella once commented, "That sure is a catchy tune, but the words are kinda depressing". To which I replied, "The words are truth, what's depressing is 5,000 people losing their jobs when the factories shut down and took their jobs over-seas". He agreed...
The Watcher...If recorded and taught truthfully, our past can only make us better. It is when the truth is tweaked to promote agenda that we are doomed to repeat our mistakes.
The Firemen of Engine #2...98% pure Lexington, NC history...with a little bit of "lattitude" taken towards the end. Here's to all the brave men and women who sacrifice themselves to keep us safe. www.lexingtonnc.net/fire/pastdetails.asp
Bluejay...Standard background music for use in UK phone booths and time machines.
Babylon Jail...A Bible story perhaps, or maybe a bad experience in a strange town. Hell, ain't it?
Hey Johnny..."We sing an ancient song, as we go marching on. Of soldiers and of battles long ago"...or maybe not so long ago.
Old Dirt Road...A mind trip back to the place of my childhood. I go there often...dust returns to dust.
