Influences

Leaving genre-assignment to the store filing clerks, my preferences run towards consummate artists. The color of the paint is incidental: Lyle Lovett, Willie, Johnny Cash, Leonard Cohen, Bowie.

Bio

Poet/singer/songwriter and modern day troubadour-without-tights, Norman Ball ploughs a middlebrow furrow with furrowed brow, bringing poetry to lyrics and lyricism to poetry.

Norm is most comfortable inhabiting the middle sphere where sound meets words, coalescing into that third thing we call music, the ultimate invocation of the Muse. He believes the Nashville corpocracy is soul destruction masquerading as entertainment i.e the devil with a soundstage.
