Journeyman singer-songwriter and guitarist Ehren Ebbage’s music falls somewhere in-between Ryan Adams and Tom Petty. His lyrics are sincere, heartfelt, and articulate, and his sweet and solid guitar playing has made him a sought-after band mate and session musician. Hailing from Eugene, Oregon, Ebbage spent several years with fellow Eugenian Justin King’s band, which was signed to Epic Records, playing guitar and singing on the group’s first two EPs and full-length record. Ebbage’s debut album, Ten Cent Souvenir, was released in summer of 2008 and features twelve tracks. The songs span a spectrum of human emotion, from the pain and helplessness of war in “Brother” to the declaration of independence in “I’m Not Sorry,” to the bliss of finding someone perfect in “Earthquakes.” Ebbage also shows his range musically, tending toward alt-country on tracks like “The Way She Does It” and rock ‘n’ roll on the album’s title track and others. Ten Cent Souvenir was produced by Zac Rae, who has contributed to the music of a long list of artists, including Sea Wolf, Fiona Apple and Alanis Morisette. Rae also plays keyboards on most of the album’s tracks, as does David Immergluck of Counting Crows. Ten Cent Souvenir is available for purchase through CDBaby, and iTunes. In addition to touring as a solo artist, Ehren plays lap steel, guitar and sings with up-and-coming Portland, OR indie rockers The Dimes. Read more on Last.fm.
