The Man From RavCon "Hero" 2021

...July, 2011 brought the The Man From RavCon Rides Again, a guitar-based Spaghetti Western effort which incorporated diverse elements ranging from Country Swing to Progressive Rock. Deep surfy single-note guitar melodies, Hammond Organ, and Mellotron orchestration combined to create a sound described as "progressive twang"...
...Just two months later, The Man From RavCon released Night Of The Beast, a special download only project which payed homage to the atmospheric sounds of 70s and 80s cult horror films. It was quite a departure from the previous two guitar-based releases, but expanded territory originally explored with the debut release.
In early 2012, Brown contributed three new Man From RavCon tracks to the Austin, TX based Deep Eddy Records' release, il Triello: Three Western Tales. This project, which also included tracks from Austin's Nematoads, and Great Britain's Los Fantasticos, celebrated the classic sounds of the Spaghetti Western genre.
August 2012, signaled the arrival of The Traveler. Showcasing an atmospheric blend of Psych-Prog, Surf, Spy, and Spaghetti Western sounds, The Traveler proved to be what Creative Loafing reviewer Patrick Moran praised as The Man From RavCon's "most organic and integrated release to date." The editors at Vintage Guitar Magazine were impressed enough with The Traveler to feature a review in the top slot of the "Hit List" in their December 2012 issue. The Traveler remains a fan favorite.
Hailed as kaleidoscopic, stratospheric, transcendent and euphoric, Skyscraper (October 15, 2013), continued to successfully integrate and transform The Man From RavCon's varied influences into something truly unique. Skyscraper received outstanding reviews from a number of sources, including Grant Moon, editor of the well respected UK publication, PROG Magazine.
