Alan Barnosky is a guitarist, singer, and songwriter from Michigan who discovered his muse after relocating to North Carolina in 2012. Originally a bassist, he left the upright behind in the move when he realized it wouldn’t fit in the car with the rest of his belongings, and began to explore the guitar he managed to bring along.
These explorations led to a debut recording of original music, Old Freight, in 2017 which generated praise for his singing, guitar work, and original compositions. Now comes a second, Lonesome Road, due for release on January 17.
Barnosky has agreed to share a track from the album with our readers, one titled I’m Caving In, which he says is a good reflection of his primary guitar influences.
