Editorial Reviews

Doug Hamilton, Atlanta Journal-Constitution, 9/25/1998

"Mayflower juxtaposes Bicknell’s evocative originals with swell versions of songs by Steve Forbert, Townes Van Zandt and others."

Product Description

"Mayflower" combines Richard Bicknell's songs with ones by some of America’s most talented songwriters – and is an ambitious follow-up to his first album, "Sometimes Blue." Bicknell’s brand of folk-rock draws from the work of such Texas singer-songwriters as Townes Van Zandt, Nanci Griffith and Eric Taylor. Some of the songwriters whose writing he admires worked with him in the production of this album, including David Olney, Eric Taylor, and Robin and Linda Williams on their songs. In addition, singer Katy Moffatt joined Bicknell on Steve Forbert’s "When the Sun Shines."

While Bicknell often performs the work of the writers he admires, the heart of his music is his own songwriting, often with band members Scott Patton, who performs on guitar, keyboard and vocals, and Steve Boyes, guitar and vocals.
