Garrett Hinson

In his dying hometown in West Tennessee, Garrett
Hinson was eternally hungry to create. And with that
hunger, he spent most of his childhood cutting his musical
teeth in a dim attic with local bands and writing songs full of
vivid imagery and earnest poetry that almost brought life to
the surrounding doldrums. Here, Hinson forged his own
style: extremely sing-able melodies, lush guitar work, and
an intensity that left him both whispering and screaming with
the rise and fall of the music.

After a few heartbreaks and a move to Nashville,
Hinson offers listeners Hollowbody, his first solo record. It is
an album that exemplifies his style as an artist, with rich,
tasteful soundscapes, earnest singing, and colorful, shrewd
lyricism. It is a record that captures Hinson’s essence, as
well as whispers of his greatest influences: Bright Eyes,
Josh Ritter, and Neil Young.

Armed with a band of his own, Hinson now takes on
the musical world as he did in the dim attic long ago. With
Hollowbody under his belt and talented musicians at his
side, he may conquer it yet.
