{"product_id":"riley-downing-landfill-poetry_aec-ob95-2","title":"Riley Downing - Landfill Poetry","description":"\u003cp\u003eFor years, singer-songwriter Riley Downing has collected stories about life's overlooked moments and underappreciated people. He's unearthed these tales of castaway truths and once-faded recollections for Landfill Poetry, a sophomore solo album and Oh Boy Records debut.A native of small-town Missouri who once worked as a backroad trashman before becoming one of music's weathered journeymen, the husky-voiced Downing may be best known as a member of noisemaking Americana outfit The Deslondes, a New Orleans-born band that he co-founded after a clandestine meeting with likeminded musicians at a folk festival in Oklahoma.On Landfill Poetry, his six-string worldbuilding takes listeners to the back of the trash truck (\"Landfill Poetry\"), inside the lonely hours of the graveyard paycheck (\"Night Shift\") and to the quiet moments after a hard day of work (\"Porch Song\").He sings for the restless ones who stay up way too late (\"Hay Hay Hay\") and the grandchildren who admire a hard-working compassion once shared between late loved ones (\"Helen \u0026amp; Gene\"). With each song, Downing uncovers sketches of life that once might've been lost to the landfill but instead are shared anew.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Oh Boy","offers":[{"title":"New \/ CD \/ Landfill Poetry Oh Boy","offer_id":49178692256052,"sku":"OB95.2","price":15.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0790\/7436\/1652\/files\/4525950-3634524.jpg?v=1785948117","url":"https:\/\/www.fye.com\/products\/riley-downing-landfill-poetry_aec-ob95-2","provider":"FYE","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
