It was in this abandoned singlewide that Americana artist Joseph LeMay cleared a space for his new life as a married man and Seventeen Acres, his first full-length release. — — Filled with stories of dissecting the nuances of love and uncertainty, Seventeen Acres was produced by LeMay himself and came to life in the same space the stories originated. Songs like ?Fruit on the Vine? and ?Warrant for My Worry? ache with missed expectations and hope in their draught, while ?Molly My Girl? and ?Just So? are timeless tales of endearing love. Start to finish, LeMay?s labor is driven by this love and all the desperation, fear and commitment that comes with it. — — ?Music fulfills a need,? says LeMay. ?It?s communicating across mediums. We don?t just want words. It?s the color and the canvas. The cadence and the lyric.? It?s with a balanced grasp of bare truth and pursuit of grace that LeMay channels this primal need in the desolation of his Seventeen Acres. — — LeMay began performing at an age when most kids are focused on learning the alphabet. Just barely a teen, the young musician could add Showtime at the Apollo, an opening gig for Brian Wilson and a countless line of county fairs across the southeast to his list of growing accomplishments. — — — (Source: Artist website) — — — UPC 707541741392 — — — The Amazon ASIN for the mp3 version of this CD is (not known) — — — Another listing by Zip
