Grayson Capps

Southern Alabama singer/songwriter Grayson Capps is one of a select few country artists who sings about the blue collar underbelly of his region with out the romanticism that often characterizes popular country music today. Highlighting the crime, poverty, and vagrants of his surrounding community Capps details a grim existence though with an affectionate embrace that positions him as a champion rather than a disparaging critic. In 2004 Capps was asked to contribute an original score to the film A Love Song for Bobby Long starring John Travolta and Scarlett Johansson. In 2010 Capps released a live record from a 2008 performance of his in Amsterdam.
