Robert Bradley's Blackwater Surprise

Five years after the last studio record, Robert Bradley’s Blackwater Surprise delivers Out of the Wilderness for 2008. The long-awaited album is the fifth major release from the blind artist who illuminates his listeners with his lyrical and musical vision.



“This record brings me back to the time when I started out wanting to be a singer-songwriter, where the music did not need the New York Philharmonic to make it real. It’s just me at the piano with the musicians around me finding my groove. I wanted to do a record and just be Robert and sing straight like Jim Reeves on ‘Put Your Sweet Lips a Little Closer to the Phone.’ I wanted to do a record that was innocent. That’s why I say Out of the Wilderness because it is like I’ve just been born,” explains Bradley.
