Fletcher Harrington Brief Description:
OC Weekly / June 20 - 27, 2003The 129 Greatest Orange County Bands Ever!1. The Adolescents 2. Chris Gaffney & the Cold Hard Facts 3. Social Distortion 19. Big Sandy 22. Dick Dale 28. Jackson Browne 30. Tim Buckley 34. Eddie Cochran 35. Agent Orange 41. Fletcher Harrington:Orange County needs Fletcher Harrington. In a land where there's no wide open spaces-and no escaping all the freakin' strip malls-this rootsy, enigmatic singer/songwriter brings a bit of the Old West back to life in his vivid tales of drunken gunslingers, dancehall whores and ornery cowpokes. Whether working solo or under the moniker of Cowboy Buddha, the Tustin resident skillfully mines the Wilco-meets-the Flying Burrito Brothers territory of timelessly rich Americana/alt-country music with a cinematic, keen imagination. Just the song titles alone-"Oklahoma Shotgun Bath,""Eyes on Fire,""As If You Had a Choice"-are enough to pique our curiosity. For an introduction to his catalog of tender love songs and robust anthems, pick up a copy of Eyes on Fire & Knuckles Sore or gallop over to one of his coffeehouse/Borders gigs. 48. Lee Rocker 50. Jose Feliciano 57. James Intveld 65. James Harman 72. The Offspring 84. Save Ferris 118. No Doubt 129. The Righteous Brothers For the complete article go to:http://www.lopie.com/OCWeeklyart.htm
