So much of the American dream lies along an open road. Woody Guthrie lived this, Jack Kerouac and John Steinbeck wrote about this, and Bellingham, WA songwriter Robert Sarazin Blake is searching for it. He’s based out of this small town in the Pacific Northwest, but he’s a far ranging artist known to roam the East Coast as easily as the West Coast, even as far as Ireland. The song is what fuels Robert Sarazin Blake’s travels. The joy of sharing a song, singing it among friends, and hitting a stage to play it before a new audience every night. There’s a joy in the simple craft of songwriting in Blake’s music, and that joy shines through in his new album, Robt Sarazin Blake. Recorded in Brooklyn during a hot summer week, the album presents Blake’s signature beatnik roots songwriting. Over an undercurrent of intricate guitar and bouzouki runs, his lyrics swirl like the smoke in an old Greenwich Village folk coffeehouse, covering themes of war, old women, and the freedom of the lonely night.
