About

Johnny Auping on David Forsyth

Raised in Odessa, Texas by a father who was an oil roughneck and a mother (bilingual teacher) who was born in Pakistan and raised in South America, Forsyth recalls the average mentality of his home city.

"When I was young, it felt like it was mostly people just living for dinner," Forsyth says of Odessa.

Conversely, Denton – a few hours east – where Forsyth attended the University of North Texas, represented a different kind of getting by. A college town by any definition, the young, artsy demographic maintains a cycle of doing enough of some version of work to be able to scrap together rent and keep the town's bartenders employed.

"The through line in all of these songs is rent and money," Forsyth says of How Bout That.

David Forsyth's debut album, How Bout That, releasing 02/16, is a concise six-song package that contains the sort of catchiness and unpredictability that you'd expect from someone who during the initial stages of pandemic lockdown – unemployed, collecting stimulus checks and paying $350 in rent – pooled money with his friends to build a skate ramp while simultaneously re-discovering classic country music ("We were skating to Buck Owens.") Since 11 years old, he's taken his guitar from the desert plains of West Texas to the diy scene of Denton to the Dallas music venues that hide under the shadows of unstoppable corporate growth.

How Bout That tiptoes around country music or indie rock, not necessarily avoiding one specific genre or coherently combining several. Instead, it manifests out of Forsyth's core musical influences that touch the far end of different spectrums (Roger Miller, Willie Nelson and Frank Ocean, to name a few) and experiences that send him in altogether different directions lyrically.

The album's opener, "Mercedesbenz," begins with the statement, "I'd never drive a Mercedes Benz. It's a great machine, but I think it attracts bad friends." It's a rebuke to a specific type of person that he encounters in large swaths of Dallas; the type who conveniently masks greed as ambition.

While stringing together a music minor from UNT through half-credit private guitar lessons ("You know how you exchange tickets at the arcade and you say, 'I'll take the rest in candy'? I did that with guitar lessons"), Forsyth played house shows and college venues with various bands, including Luna Luna (Los Angeles Times) (Forsyth describes their sound as "Texas space pop").

It was in 2017 when he met Billy Law, bassist for Ottoman Turks (Rolling Stone, Dallas Morning News), by way of a mutual friend claiming Law could outdrink Forsyth. The result was a hungover Law telling Forsyth that he was starting a band and asking if he wanted to join. And thus, Forsyth became a member of Billy Law and the Baby Boys, eventually touring Sweden together.

In How Bout That, Forsyth's lyrics are delivered with a meandering tone while maintaining a coherent thought, giving a sense of Pinegrove's Amperland, NY. On "Ain't Like It Has Been," he sings "We burned down the house while we sheltered in place. Ain't it funny when God looks away," and on "BloodCrack," he lays out the sort of sardonic wink that resembles a more soft-edged version of David Berman's writing on the Silver Jews' American Water.

Ultimately, though, the entire record channels a certain West Texas familiarity that musicians like Guy Clark, Roy Orbison, and the Maines family have managed to convey in earnest for generations. No matter how much Denton and Dallas raised him as a musician, How Bout That will still resonate to anyone who would audit a college course on Terry Allen's Juarez or treats Nanci Griffith's "West Texas Sun" like another warm layer on a cold day.

"The West Texas thing is always going to poke through somehow," Forsyth says. "Something happens when people stare at a horizon that's totally open that puts space in music."

In its entirety, How Bout That plays like a brief and unplanned stop in a tavern; strange and yet inviting.
