Ryan Necci and The Buffalo Gospel’s The Dead Can’t Take A Hint — out November 21 — is a homespun, soul-baring Americana record born in basements, bedrooms, and barns. Equal parts grief and grace, it’s an unvarnished look at an artist rebuilding himself, one song at a time. As a small thank-you from the band to the folks who keep the songs alive, every ticket to the show comes with a free copy of their new CD.
At the heart of great music is a story, and for that matter, a storyteller. The story of Ryan Necci & The Buffalo Gospel begins with Ryan’s introduction to music through his father’s record collection. Country music mixed with John Prine and Townes Van Zandt was the soundtrack to his growing up in a small, lower middle class farm town in Wisconsin. The songs of love and loss and unfulfilled dreams seeped into him as a child and later as a songwriter, helping form his distinct Country/Americana style.
