The Profile

American singer-songwriter and guitarist known for a raw, blues-inflected, stripped-down style and intimate, lo-fi recordings.

Born 1960, died 2005. Widely praised for albums including Living With the Law and Dirt Floor; often recorded in minimal, live-feeling settings (self-produced/minidisc as noted in reviews).

A close, admiring reading of Chris Whitley's stripped-down, blues-inflected work. The review praises self-produced, live-feeling recordings (notably Weed) and compares them to Dirt Floor. Emphasis on minimal, visceral performances captured in lo-fi settings.
