Bruce Tanton

For twenty-five years he's been writing and composing songs — not for a crowd, but because a feeling needed a home. His songs aren't his life: they're rooms he builds so a feeling has somewhere to live. He taught himself guitar in a basement, dreams them up on long back roads with no radio signal, and leaves a little mystery in every story. The humor always sits right next to the heartbreak, the way it does in a life fully lived.
