Buddy Mondlock Other songwriters say: “Buddy Mondlock represents the best of the new generation of singer/songwriters in folk music. His writing style is grounded in the traditions of the past, but has it’s heart in the present. He is one of my favorite writers.” Nanci Griffith “I first saw Buddy Mondlock while hosting the Ballad Tree, a tradition at the Kerrville Folk Festival. This kid in a bathing suit walked up and played “No Choice” to an audience of 30 - 40 people. By the time he got to the second verse, he had 200 people singing along with him. He blew me away! Pay attention to Buddy; he’s a great writer!” Guy Clark “Buddy Mondlock is one of our country’s best songwriters. His approach is gentle and Zen-like, the songs unfurl like little movies and the listener is transported to some distant better place -- and isn’t that what music should be about?” Ellis Paul “Buddy Mondlock is consistently eclectic, consistently innovative and consistently one of the few artists that doesn’t irritate me. I love working with him and he better keep working with me.” Janis Ian “While residing in the world capital of perfunctory 9 - 5 songwriters, Buddy Mondlock chooses to write songs that convey honest emotional depth through a prism of sophisticated harmony and melody. His song “The Kid” is a timeless anthem of innocence discovering reality. I cried like a little girl.” Richard Julian “Buddy Mondlock writes beautiful songs and plays the kind of guitar they deserve. He’s a fine person and a fine artist.” Townes Van Zandt www.buddymondlock.com .

Onesheet Steve Brooks Chasing Grace
Frog Records FR0G07 • National Release Date: April 2010 “Great unsung songwriter of Austin.” - Slaid Cleaves "A wordsmith of the first order." - Jimmy Lafave "The same sense of commentary and observation that made the likes of Woody Guthrie a national hero." - Ellis Paul “Country flavor, a tinge of James Taylor and not afraid to kick up some dust." - Austin Chronicle “A collection of well-crafted gems with something for everyone.” - Joe Angel, KEOS-FM, College Station, TX You may not know Steve Brooks by name, but you’ve been hearing his songs for years. They’ve been recorded by actor Russell Crowe (One Good Year) and Austin Americana artists like Slaid Cleaves (One Good Year, Everette) and Danny Santos (This Memory of You, Hungry for Love), as well as folksingers Emily Kaitz, Kevin So, Marilyn Rucker, Dave Hooper and Jessica Shepherd. He was heard on coast-to-coast radio on Jim Hightower’s late, lamented talk show, where he wrote a song-a-week about events in the news. Now, Brooks, is stepping out with his first studio album in fourteen years. Although Steve’s satirical songs have been widely played on folk radio, producer Chris Gage, of Austin duo Albert & Gage, captures another side of Steve: poetic, romantic and spiritual. “I’ve been chasing grace, but grace ain’t so easily found,” sings Steve in his soaring version of One Good Year, co-written with Cleaves. On Chasing Grace, he’s looking for it in unlikely places, from the mountains of North Carolina to Iowa fields and Texas honky-tonks, with help from sidemen like Richard Bowden (Maines Brothers Band), Tom Pittman (Austin Lounge Lizards), Eddie Cantu (Bruce Robison, Kelly Willis) and Courtney Audain (Timbuk 3).
