Jon Autry is a shattered man. On his debut album, Cutting Exercises, he makes
this painfully evident.
This record seems to be about being alone, so it's fitting that Cutting
Exercises is truly a solo effort that sees Jon writing, performing, producing
and recording the record in it's entirety (with the exception of longtime friend
and collaborator Rob Guernsey playing drums on three tracks).
Recorded partly in a studio that was fashioned in a dark, windowless corner of a
former pharmaceutical plant in Indianapolis, Cutting Exercises emerged about as
dark and lonely as the place where it was made.
Jon's music is imbued with a diverse range of influences from Brian Wilson to
Nine Inch Nails, Kraftwerk to Matthew Sweet, Leonard Cohen to Depeche Mode.
These mixtures might seem eclectic to some, but there is a common thread that
ties them all together: Sincerity.
