Fri, 07 Sep 2012 00:00:00 -0800

“Mighty Old Distance and Murky Old Time,” the new record by Josh Roberts & The Hinges, took a mighty long time to complete. The calculatingly turbulent rock band that can just as easily slow the music down with by-the-fire warmth didn’t rush the writing and recording.

It’s late, past midnight on a late-August Tuesday. Josh Roberts is taking a smoke break on the back porch of Front End Audio in Rosewood. He’s here with his friend Alan Moon, trying to get the final mixes right on Mighty Old Distance and Murky Old Time, Roberts’ third record with his backing band, the Hinges. It’s still warm, still muggy, but it’s silent save for the sighing horns of distant trains. There’s nothing out here beyond the overgrown yard and a stack of wooden pallets. Nothing — to quote “Buzzard,” from Roberts’ My War Cry is Amor — but the porch and the night. - Free Times

Saturday, April 16 Josh Roberts & the Hinges — It takes a special brand of talent to be both a crowd favorite and a musician’s musician; perhaps no one — locally, anyhow — exemplifies that kind of gap-bridging talent better than Josh Roberts and the Hinges. Musically dynamic yet accessible, lyrically poetic and fist-pump chant-worthy, the Hinges pack venues with their heady yet noodle-worthy tunes, yet their cohesive tightness and stellar harmonies (not to mention Roberts’ heroic guitar playing) still leave the most hardened musicians slack-jawed.

The evening also serves as the official release of Are You Going to Eat That?, an off-the-cuff solo EP that features a mixture of songs old and new from Roberts’ vast back catalog. “Really, I made the record because of the show,” Roberts says. “It’s a Storytellers kind of thing, and I was like, ‘Well, you know what, I’ve got plenty of that stuff that nobody knows.’ It’s never been recorded, and I only play it randomly when I have an acoustic guitar in my hands. It’s not really Hinges stuff, per se.” - Free Times
