DON'T WALK THE DARKNESS

Vinyl LP pressing. 2020 release. The balance of the album finds Sexton finding inspiration in the more interesting corners of Americana, whether itAEs the ghostly gospel incantations of the opener/title track, the hypnotic blues shuffle of oWhat My Baby DonAEt Knowo or the R&B anthemics of oTemptations Call.o Elsewhere, SextonAEs roots show on the Tex-Mex romancer oWitness,o the Vox-organ-flecked oMess Around With My Mindo and the horn-fueled meditation oThe Whole Story.o For Sexton, resuming his solo career after a long break feels like both a reboot and culmination of his musical journey. oI just figured it was time for me to reconnect with singing and fronting a band, something I havenAEt done in a long time,o he says. oThis is a new start for me, but also kind of the logical extension of everything IAEve been doing since I was nine years old. The music is brand new, but IAEm the same old me.o
