Dylan Fowler

Music review of his new cd Portrait

Dylan Fowler**** Portrait (Acoustic Music Records) Many music critics have described Welsh guitarist Dylan Fowler’s latest CD, Portrait, as powerful and poetic. They’re right. Though the lesser-known musician feels most loyal to his jazz/folk roots, the album boasts a heavy dose of Celtic traditional melodies. A grand blend of jazz à la John McLaughlin or Bill Evans and recalling the grippingly emotional strains of harp virtuoso Alan Stivell and the ditties of the Chieftains, Portrait is a solid work from start to finish. In fact, Fowler’s latest effort is the perfect personal soundtrack to accompany pensive days of self-reflection.
