Doug Spartz Does It Again!
Following the success of his 2006 release, "American Stories, Lies, and Tales" (#61 of the top 100 Americana releases), Veteran musician Spartz once again shows that he can sing and write with the best of them. After a year of major health crisis, it appeared that Spartz wouldn't be doing any more recording, but from his hospital bed, he called his producer, Doug Deforest, and booked time in the studio. What happened there was magical to say the least, as they teamed up with several other musician friends, in what appears to be some of his best work to date.
"The One Who's Leavin'"
is the result of that recording project. Teaming up with the incomparable
"Cuttin' Crew",
they recorded some of Doug's new music and also did some songs that he
had wanted to record for a long time. Joining him on some of the cuts
are Jay Boy Adams, Tom Gillam, Eilen Jewell, Billy Lee Riley, and Sarah
Jo Roark. Additional guest musicians include Bruce "Creeper"
Kurnow, Bobby "Stinger" Schnitzer, Cynthia Johnson, Pamela McNeill,
Billy Joe French and Gary Gazaway.
The resulting project is a mix of everything from Americana, Bluegrass,
Blues, Country, Rock… all blended into an unbelievable collection
sure to please any listener's musical taste.
With no guarantee as to what the future holds, Spartz
is planning to continue writing
his songs and recording his music. He will begin touring in late summer.
