Notes
In an era of digital downloads, David Ullman is a decidedly old fashioned, analog artist. Ullman's latest album, LIGHT THE DARK, was conceived and recorded specifically for vinyl and contains a moody mix of haunted hymns, blasphemous ballads and folk-rock redemption songs "While it's not entirely fair or accurate to say 'if it's not on vinyl, it doesn't matter,' this collection of songs is coming out on this medium because it matters a great deal to me," the scruffy, singer-songwriter said recently. Largely subsidized by a series of successful fundraising concerts and an online "crowdfunding campaign," Light The Dark asks it's audience to examine the conflicts between who they are versus who they want to be; where they come from versus where they're going; and, what they've been told versus what they, themselves believe. "These songs share not only a resilient spirit, but also a willingness to shine a light on one's self and confront the ways in which we are often our own worst enemy," Ullman explains. "It's an album about the ongoing, and often traumatic, process of finding your place in the world--deciding for what, and with whom, you will stand. "Whereas my first album was written and recorded in a vacuum and performed at gigs after the fact, all of the songs on Light The Dark were honed and developed on stage. Accordingly, the primary goal for this record was to capture the energy and dynamics of my live performances with minimal accompaniment in the hope that audiences will respond as well to what they bring home as they do to what they see at a live show." Ullman's emotionally intelligent and unabashedly candid debut, Dog Days (2008), was deemed "exquisitely beautiful" and "intensely rich" by Cleveland music critics, and the region's concertgoers were introduced to Ullman over the course of the more than 300 shows he played in support of the album, as well as it's singles/EPs "Deja Vu" (2007) and "Secondhand" (2009) and the live "Bootleg" Unplugged @ Uncorked (2010). Building a devoted fan base one passionate, furrow-browed performance at a time, Ullman began playing clubs, coffeehouses and bars in and around Kent, Ohio while finishing college and working twelve-hour-nights in a plastics factory. He's since left both factory and college life behind, taking his tattered green Doc Martens and his bloodied, battered Martin guitar on the road from Minneapolis and Chicago, to Philadelphia and New York City. "One of the benefits of beginning your music career in a college town is that, after they graduate, the students who've made up your audience either return to where they're from or move someplace new," Ullman says. "I'm fortunate to have supporters in some pretty cool places." Regardless of the setting, whether it's opening for acts like Chelsea Crowell, Iris DeMent, Hamell On Trial, Need To Breathe, or Rusted Root on theater and club stages; returning to his old stomping grounds to play in the Kent State Folk Festival; headlining his own annual gig at Akron's Musica; or a private house concert, Ullman's most valuable asset is his ability to relate to an audience. Listeners easily identify with the extreme highs, the obliterating lows and the hazy in-betweens reflected in his songs. Slightly gravelly vocals, which crescendo from the barest whisper to a barely-controlled roar, lend Ullman's earnest and raw confessions a grace and sincerity rarely found in today's music. "For me," he says, "even though I might sing about intense, sad-sounding subjects, the goal is always to transcend the darkness by giving voice to it. It's catharsis. I don't usually sing songs when I'm happy. I guess you could say I sing sad songs to get happy."
