DOYLE BRAMHALL - Is It News (2007) Considering that it took Texas drummer and singer/songwriter Doyle Bramhall's 12 years to issue his debut album, 1994's Bird Nest on the Ground and that nine years passed before his sophomore effort, Fitchburg Street, dropped, his third set, arriving only four years after its predecessor, is quick work. Bramhall is a bit of a living legend in Texas music circles. "Is It News" features 12 songs written over the course of Doyle Bramhall’s personal and musical life. “Chateau Strut,” was originally constructed in 1974 when Bramhall, Stevie Ray Vaughan and keyboardist Billy Etheridge were warming up at Club Chateau in East Texas, and “Cryin’,” written in 2005, was recorded in post-Katrina New Orleans at The Nappy Dugout & Up with Mike Napolitano. 01.
