Ryan Sambol, former frontman of the acclaimed Austin band The Strange Boys, presents his new book of collected lyrics spanning from 2011 to 2022. "Lyrics '11 - '22" showcases the evolution of Sambol's songwriting journey through his solo work and various projects like Living Grateful and The Interstate Group. The book captures the essence of his unique and poignant lyrical style, which oscillates between introspection and existential contemplation, while maintaining a strong melodic foundation. Sambol's keen sense of melody and off-kilter delivery imbue his songs with an undeniable charm, evoking a world-weary seriousness that shines through in this remarkable collection. A must-read for fans of his work and those intrigued by the creative process of an artist in his prime, this volume offers a deeper insight into the mind of a gifted musician and poet.

about

Gestalt is the newest album from Texas-based musician and poet Ryan Sambol. Following his work with The Strange Boys, Living Grateful, and The Interstate Group, this record refines the country-folk sound of previous solo releases Now Ritual (2015) and Rail Sing (2020) in a stark work of personal and musical pruning. Although written for the road and full accompaniment, these nine tracks were recorded in relative isolation, often tracked live, and reflect the sometimes painful, often bemusing process of self-examination. The result is a singular document of a songwriter honing his craft—observing, thinking, and creating.

Tracklist:
1. You’re Still Lovable To Someone
2. Just Like Golden Hours
3. Approaching Storm Dog Blues
4. Big Text
5. There Are Things To Be Doing
6. Different Sky
7. Why Am I Afraid To Pray
8. Round The House
9. His Aim
