MARK SPIRO – Traveling Cowboys (2021)

MARK SPIRO’s new solo album “Traveling Cowboys” comes about one year after the career spanning “Best of” compilation which Frontiers released as a celebration of this great hit-maker career. Once again, Mark Spiro continues a legacy of excellent songwriting, which he has always done in a very personal and heartfelt way.
On “Traveling Cowboys,” Mark once again writes and sings songs about life, love, sacrifice, heartbreak, and everything in between, while wrapping everything up in a smooth melodic rock blanket.
Mark was helped on the record by Tim Pierce and Gia Sky, but more notably, appearing on “7 Billion People” as a duet partner with Mark is none other than Julian Lennon.
“Traveling Cowboys” is another album of which Mark Spiro can be truly proud. It showcases a man with a talent for writing catchy yet thoughtful songs, songs that any fan of good music will enjoy listening to.

”Traveling Cowboys” is a really strong collection of tunes, focused on Spiro’s skillful songwriting and driven by his smooth vocals and expressive lyrics.
There’s some rockers to balance the album like ‘Nothing In Between Us’, ‘7 Billion People’ (with Julian Lennon plus the great Tim Pierce guitar work) and the shuffle of ”Dance” and its concluding guitar solo, but mostly this is a midtempo based record with sweet AOR harmonies, melodic rock pulse, and moments of West Coast atmosphere.

A very mature piece of music without trickery or bombast: just wonderfully written songs performed with passion, from the heart.
