Saddles ~ 7pm ~ River Jones Music Recording Artist

Saddles is the music of singer/songwriter Charles Barth who recorded each instrument on this, his debut EP, and performs these songs live leading a full band. Each Saddles song is decidedly different in sound and theme, boasting elements of indie, folk, and even hints of progressive rock. Barth strives to elicit from listeners a broad range of emotion with his often snarky, metaphorical lyrics and the use of his broad vocal dynamic.
