Sterling Witt

Sterling Witt’s latest recording, “Shadows & Secrets,” is his sixth full-length recording since his inaugural self-titled EP in 2000. Like its predecessors, “Secrets” reveals the works of a songwriter who ignores boundaries without straying into chaos or abstractions. It also illustrates Witt’s ability (with the help of producer Steve Phillips of the Elders) to create some outside-the-box arrangements of folk and rock songs. Timothy Finn The Star
