Mark Erelli is a singer/songwriter whom I've seen win over the Iron Horse with his first song, though his smile is enough to do the job. On his latest album, Hope & Other Casualties, Mark raises the bar with an unapologetic and timeless collection of deeply personal and affecting songs. Effortlessly balancing songs of love and protest, resignation and redemption, the album is a brave and searingly honest tour de force which cements Erelli's reputation as one of today's best young singer/songwriters. Mark plays the Horse this Saturday at 7PM with the Jason Spooner Trio opening the show. Here's a special Horse's Mouth audio feature, Mark Erelli doing Springsteen's "My Hometown."
