Artists:George Wirth
From WWR
|
A lifetime resident of New Jersey, George Wirth's The Lights of Brigantine debut CD was released in October 2005 and was selected as one of the best CDs of that year by New Jersey’s Upstage Magazine. His gift for shaping a story that one can picture as it’s told results in songs that are unforgettable. Never one to grab a cheap cliche’, George’s lyrics capture moments from the lives of friends and strangers alike and make them real in their honesty. We know these people, even though we’ve never met, and while the songs are personal to George they become personal to the listener as well. His lived-in vocal style and guitar arrangements suit his stories perfectly. Live, his songs are often interspersed with humorous stories, observations and rambles that take on a life of their own and result in narrowing the gap between performer and audience.
George has been introduced to audiences and shared performances with friends Rod Picott, Abbie Gardner and Red Molly. He’s appeared on bills with Anais Mitchell and Richard Julian at The Saint in Asbury Park, where he’s been performing regularly. Most recently he had the honor of having been invited to perform at The Clearwater Festival, also in Asbury Park, and has received nominations in two 2006 Asbury Music Awards catagories, Best Acoustic Act and Best Local Release for his Lights of Brigantine album.
