Dax Riggs
"Say Goodnight To The World"
Fat Possum
2010
This LP falls almost perfectly into Riggs' wheelhouse. Still intensely blues influenced with that unmistakeable style he encompasses so well. "Say Goodnight..." picks up where "...Blood or Love" left off, this time with more emphasis on complete song structure. The backing band does a fantastic job of flooding the tracks with lots of delays and psychedelic drug-drenched guitars, thus capturing the essence that is "Say Goodnight to the World". Standout tracks for me include probably the BEST cover I personally have ever heard, "Heartbreak Hotel", "Grave Dirt On My Blue Suede Shoes", and the more raucous, "Let Me Be Your Cigarette", round out what is yet another stellar effort from New Orleans' best crooner, DAX RIGGS. Enjoy.

Dax is currently living and playing around Austin, TX. So, if you're lucky enough to be in the south of the Mason-Dixon, go out and support one of the hardest working musicians in the game right now.
Cheers!
