Release Notes:

Dan Patlansky returns with Introvertigo, the followup to Dear Silence Thieves,
which was voted Blues Rock ReviewÆs top album of 2014. Patlansky first grabbed
our attention in 2012 with 20 Stones, which came in at number 10 on 2012Æs
annual list. With that said, obviously expectations for Introvertigo are high,
especially with the worldwide success of Dear Silence Thieves.
The album begins with the hard rocking ôRun.ö Dan goes back to the blues with
the next track, ôPoor Old John.ö Patlansky does a really good job of mixing
styles on the record. ôLoosen The Gripö starts with a brooding piano solo
complimented by some tasteful licks that make for a really cool vibe.
ôHeartbeatö is a dirty blues rocker thatÆs pretty raw before exploding into the
chorus. ôStop The Messinö has an upbeat, modern feel and would make a good
candidate for radio play. ôBet On Meö also could be another candidate for a
single. The track features a catchy chorus and Dan even sings about the blues
police out in force razzing people, which I think a lot of blues rock artists
and Blues Rock Review as a publication can relate to. One thing is for sure,
following IntrovertigoÆs release in May, you may want to follow DanÆs lead and
bet on him.
Producer Theo Crous also deserves a lot of credit here. He produced Dear Silence
Thieves, too, and the production on Introvertigo is outstanding. Every track
sounds big and lively.
When an artist releases an album like Dear Silence Thieves you can only hope the
next album will come close to matching it. Patlansky doesnÆt just match Dear
Silence Thieves with Introvertigo, he surpasses it. From start to finish every
track is a winner. We all know Patlansky can play with the best of them, but he
never lets his playing overpower the song, which separates Dan from other
artists. Patlansky wrote all the songs on the album with one co-write and shows
his songwriting prowess on Introvertigo. Dear Silence Thieves was PatlanskyÆs
breakout, Introvertigo shows heÆs right up there with Bonamassa for modern day
blues rock supremacy.
