Corin Raymond tonight at the Cameron House

by User ImageMike on January 17th, 2008

Corin Raymond is taking the stage at the Cameron House tonight at 6pm..

Here’s a bit on Corin…

Corin Raymond is a young man writing old songs- not songs written deliberately in an old style, but songs that sound like they’ve been around a lot longer than Corin himself.

He didn’t grow up playing music or writing songs, but he grew up around words.

Edna St. Vincent Millay. Robert Frost.

Poetry. Words.

Corin’s songs are stories. They’re also bittersweet tunes sung with unadulterated joy. Equal parts heartache and hope. Tom Waits does that. John Prine does that. They don’t take themselves too seriously but they break your heart. The low in loneliness and the high in hi-dee-ho, all at once.

Corin’s songs want to be sung. Whenever people hear them they leave singing. His first cd isn’t out yet but people are already covering the songs on it.
