A bit of blues, a pinch of old-time, a dash of country and a good amount of folk: what sounds like an unconventional cookbook describes Cedar River's music best. When the Hamburg native is not experiencing the almost obligatory crisis of meaning for artists, he writes songs about small everyday observations and the big picture. About sold CDs and lost dreams. Common to his songs is the musical minimalism: One voice. One guitar. No frills. In the end, he always keeps it with Bob Dylan: "All I can do is be me, whoever that is."
