On the back of Anthony Atkinson's Come Home For Autumn you'll find the artist's elaborate studio set-up: 4 track recorder (tape), acoustic guitar and microphone. It's a simple production technique for honing exposed, honest stories that highlight the human element in Atkinson's repertoire. Thankfully - as a country of music lovers - we've become fascinated with our own colourful characters and cultural identity; Atkinson moves the spotlight onto realistic characters who, by the end of Come Home For Autumn seem familiar and tangible. A good example is Mental Notes Aplenty which instantly sets a scene with the opening line: 'she's the goalie in her work's indoor soccer team- she's sick of watching her colleagues kick goals'. Musically, members of Mid-State Orange, The Lucksmiths, Ruck Rover and The Mabels add deft touches to Come Home For Autumn, adding texture and depth to a basic foundation of guitar and raw vocals. Anthony Atkinson has one of those vocal styles that befriends and the intimate nature of his songwriting only adds to the familiarity.
