Gavin
Report says "Wendy varies between folksy strumming and
rock'n'roll power. As a guitarist, she's in the same vein
as Joan Armatrading and Michael Hedges. Acoustic music with
edge and might."
 Wendy
Bucklew arrived on the music scene in Atlanta in 1988. Since
then, she has performed in front of audiences across the U.S.
that range from 20 to 70,000 people. She is comfortable solo
and with a band. Her experience in working with a band has
resulted in a move past the acoustic balladeer labels and into
the adult rock realm. Having recently returned to her native
California, Bucklew hopes to reach a broader audience with
the new songs and tour the album with her band to create live
performances that rock and cradle its listeners. The live show
will do the album justice. The CD's artwork and layout are
also from the hands of the one who brings us the songs. Involved
in all levels of her career, she is motivated and qualified
for the next level, whatever that may be...
out of stock. |

Bucklew - After You
In a roundabout way, this 15-song release on Motion City
Records is a result of a miracle. Tangled in a label dispute,
Bucklew’s career path was gridlocked. Out of the blue,
a fan wrote to her saying, "You don’t know me,
but when times were tough for me, your music pulled me
through. Now that things are tough for you, I wanna help." Turns
out this fan had since become a dot.com millionaire. He
bought her contract and all of her product, and returned
them to Bucklew, with no strings attached -- except for
making Bucklew promise that the music will keep flowing.
And
it does. "After You," Bucklew’s fourth
full-length recording, is the album that her fans have
been waiting for. A combination of live and studio tracks,
Bucklew puts a new spin on some of her most requested
songs and also serves up a batch of new tunes. Sometimes
stripped down, sometimes dressed up, these tracks form
a sound that is undeniably Wendy Bucklew – that
soulful voice, that rocking guitar, and that rare and
wry twist of phrase.

Bucklew - Rage in the Ring
It's back and on CD! Rage In The Ring was originally
released in 1990 on cassette only back in Wendy's Atlanta
days. She took the singer/songwriter community by storm
and we were all there singing along. There are some unforgetable
songs on this CD like "Rage In The Ring" and "Out
Of The City." You'll also see some familiar names
on it ... DeDe Vogt played some guitar as well as
produced it and Simone Simonton of Lift plays
drums.

Bucklew - Asleep in the Swing
On Asleep in the Swing, Bucklew once again teams
up with Producer/Recording Engineer, DeDe Vogt of
Sound and Fury Studios in Atlanta. Engineer Jim Zumpano (Aretha
Franklin, Babyface, Whitney Houston), who worked with Wendy
in 1990 on Rage in the Ring, lent his mixing expertise
at Ricky Keller's Southern Living Studios. Weaving a tight
thread throughout the new album are the classy bass-lines
of Dede Vogt and the melodic rocking drum sounds of longtime
Bucklew drummer, Jason Mogi. This dynamic rhythm section
will also tour with Bucklew in support of Asleep in
the Swing. Adding their own flavors to these tasty
songs, guest musicians/friends include Michelle Malone (Vel
Vel Records), Lounge Lizard's Jane Scarpantoni (guest
cellist for Patti Smith, Jewel, Natalie Merchant), and Michael
Lorant (Big Fish Ensemble).
