Night Dawn: The Unpublished Poetry Of Townes Van Zandt

EDITORIAL REVIEWS
Multi-platinum artist David Broza is set to release Night Dawn: The Unpublished Poetry of Townes Van Zandt, February 23rd, 2010 via S-Curve Records. The 12-song set was produced by David Broza and G.E. Smith (Hall & Oates, Saturday Night Live) and features 10 previously unreleased lyrics and poems written by the late Townes Van Zandt -- one cover of the last song Van Zandt wrote for David and one instrumental Broza wrote for Van Zandt.

David Broza met Van Zandt when the pair played a "Writers in the Round" show in Houston, TX in 1994. It was the only time the two played together and they did not remain in touch afterwards. On New Years Day, 1997, Van Zandt tragically passed away and shortly after, Broza was alerted that Townes had endowed him a shoebox full of unpublished poetry and lyrics. "I was dumbstruck," Broza recalls. "Why me? I never really talked to Townes. We played together one night. That was it." After Van Zandt's death, his widow, Jeanene Van Zandt, requested Broza to not take the poems, but let her present them to Townes' fans like Bob Dylan, Willie Nelson, Waylon Jennings and others. Eight years later, after never surfacing, Broza asked for them and started a four year process writing music for 10 of the unseen works. Broza then fi nished an 11th, "Harms Swift Way," from a Van Zandt demo. He then composed an original instrumental, "Too Old to Die Young," as a tribute to Van Zandt that closes the album. More than a decade after initially being given to Broza, Van Zandt's unpublished poems and lyrics will now be heard for the first time.
