Wisconsin singer/songwriter Graham Lindsey debuted in 2003 with Famous Anonymous Wilderness, an album full of alt-folk-country tunes, strikingly poetic lyrics and overt Dylanisms that garnered comparisons to such similarly time-transcendent artists as <a href="spotify:artist:2H5elA2mJKrHmqkN9GSfkz">Gillian Welch</a> and <a href="spotify:artist:6vrwcJbfs2QyRtApdx1hXX">Richard Buckner</a> (though Lindsey takes a more raw and intense approach to his idiom than those artists). Lindsey's music career actually began as a child, when he was a member of kiddie punkers Old Skull. After the dissolution of that group -- and as he hit his teen years -- Lindsey became interested in acoustic music (particularly the burgeoning anti-folk movement) and started playing local gigs in Madison, WI. After that period, he dropped music altogether for four years. His creative resurgence came during a period of self-imposed isolation in rural Nebraska; there, infused with the influence of early <a href="spotify:artist:74ASZWbe4lXaubB36ztrGX">Dylan</a>, <a href="spotify:artist:6iuM8yp1x2N0l6SONhyq4b">Ramblin' Jack Elliot</a>, and the '60s folk revival, he woodshedded out the tunes that would comprise his debut. Famous Anonymous Wilderness seems to at once distill ancient, knee-trembling folk and "alt" otherness, with a few tracks stepping in alt-country directions. ~ Erik Hage, Rovi
