Six-string and stompbox-themed stories culled from a bittersweet and simpler South, a grotesque and good-riddance South. Think Youth Fiction peppered with HBO cussin''. Not necessarily for the faint-of-heart, the high-minded literati, or maybe really anyone other than the writer himself.
Harold Whit Williams is guitarist for the critically acclaimed rock band Cotton Mather, and he releases lo-fi home recordings as Daily Worker. He is a 2018 and 2020 Pushcart Prize Nominee, and also recipient of the 2014 Mississippi Review Poetry Prize. His collection Backmasking was winner of the 2013 Robert Phillips Poetry Chapbook Prize from Texas Review Press, and his latest, My Heavens, is available from FutureCycle Press. He lives in Austin, Texas.

Poems written from the inside-out and the outside-in of the Old Country. An old country of not only quiet County Down pubs and gritty Belfast streets but also of childhood singsongs and snippets of last night''s office dream. Fiddles and flutes, pipes and pints, liquor and loose-lipped language. Bone-and-blood ballads in formal and free verse.

The poems of Backmasking uncover secret messages of rock and roll in relation to religion, mostly in a loose sonnet form reminiscent of David Wojahn's classic, Mystery Train. Set mainly in the Muscle Shoals area of Alabama, these narrative poems, spun in reverse, detail a young man's ascent into the glittery world of guitar heroes, all the while singing out the day-to-day absurdities of the sacred and the profane. - E-bokEngelska, 2014

My buddy JonHad called a friend who''d let us tape for free.The evening band had paid, was packed and goneWhen we arrived with drums, guitars and Tom—His blank cassettes would dub our only tune.I can''t recall who played the bass, or humThe hooks and riffs we tracked. So, pretty soonWe called it quits, our demo done. I''d loveTo say we felt Aretha''s vibe, or heardThat Wilson Pickett preacher-scream aboveOur own pathetic din. But clever wordsAnd chords are not enough. Beside our carsWe lingered in the lot and spoke of stars.
