Blaze Foley “Small Town Hero” & “Cold, Cold World”

Keep an eye on those dark clouds rolling in and get some duct tape for your broken heart. Ladies and gentlemen, we bring you Blaze Foley. A lost hero of rustic country-folk, a man who never got his dues in life (and I would argue he still doesn’t get the attention he rightly deserves), the label Secret Seven Records is looking to kick up some dust and bring some attention to his darkly hypnotizing work. Listen below to the spry “Small Town Hero” and the aching “Cold, Cold World” below to get a taste of his work. A cold blooded songwriter with deft guitar playing and a commanding voice, Foley is a giant who has hid in the shadows for too long. The reissued record, Cold Cold World, is sold out already in many places, so if you want it you better start scouring the internet.
