Singer/songwriter Steve Pedvin’s engaging style of guitar driven pop/rock is on full display on his excellent CD, “Sparks in the Sky.” Often recalling the fertile talents of Dire Straits’ Mark Knopfler and particularly his classic “Brothers in Arms” LP, “Sparks in the Sky” 13 tuneful tracks run the gamut of potent rockers such as “Alive,” to solemn ballads like “When Lightning Strikes,” to feet-tapping swing on “Stuck in a Hole,” all the while effected with the know-how and sly humor, of a performer of impeccable artistry. As a guitarist, Pedvin’s tone and phrasing are spot on, whether invoking the spirit of Jimi Hendrix on “Nowhere to Go” or providing an acoustic picking-style backing on the solid, folk-like number, “Thirty Five.” As a vocalist, he displays a range of tone and inflection that serve the song first and foremost and, as a writer, Pedvin’s songs are as original as they are musically satisfying, reminding us all over again why rock ‘n’roll remains a vibrant and important art form, even as it nears the end of its sixth decade. Steve Pedvin’s aptly-titled “Sparks in the Sky” CD is a vision of musical sparks that illuminates the sky.
