Just Me by Bryan Adam Joyner

“Just Me is a gripping, wrenching listen. With some comfort settling down in its deepest chasms. More than worth your time.”
Dave Pilot - Outlaw Magazine

"Having come-uppance with his brother, practicing, woodshedding, honing over a number of years and writing songs from a very visceral, first-person perspective, Bryan Adam Joyner has persevered in personal triumph and tragedy, musical experimentations and determinations, and has evolved into an artist whose voice is none other than his own. It's a voice with conviction, one that is both seasoned and weathered by the bitterness and joy of life lived, love gone bad, and roads with no speed limits. It hasn't made Joyner an angry man, its made him a deeper man, and these songs will provide you all the proof you need to realize that. This is the record he's been waiting to make, and it's here."
Jeff Hopson - Singer Songwriter

"Hard Country" is right! Bryan's conception of deep and weighty country music is incarnated in a thick skin of rock n' roll that keeps the aching heart pumping. But don't be mistaken; this is country, hard. Bryan's clever, and sometimes subtle, lyrics present blunt truths about human nature that, when revealed, hit like Gatsby's death. This is great music that comes from a vulnerable place in the human heart. It's what music lovers need to restore their faith that country music is alive and kicking, hard.

“As the saying goes, "Smooth seas do not make skillful sailors" - Bryan Adam Joyner writes of the treacherous waters he has faced in his latest project "Just Me." As you listen to the songs, you realize the subject matter is real honest life battles, almost taboo topics but someone has to write the song for the person in the bottom of the well searching for a hand to climb out of the depths of despair, and Bryan is that songwriter. Not afraid to bleed his heart out through his lyrics- cry his tears through his fingers. His power poetry matched to melodic undertones in a delightful pairing- a little dark and mysterious with just enough honkytonk driving-rythym to keep the toe-tapping. Bryan Adam Joyner is that rare songwriter who's persona comes alive behind the guitar, free from chains of life- he shares the ways he's found the light at the end of the tunnel and for the listener gives his music for it to be possibly be their light.”

“Bryan Adam Joyner's raw, unflinching poetry dealing with suicide, paternal death, and love lacerated beyond redemption provides a paradoxical gut-punch that sends you reeling emotionally while intellectually craving the next line…damn powerful stuff.”
Jud Block - Singer Songwriter

You'll find in Bryan's music some of his dad's honky-tonk, some of the rock he turned to when his life was falling apart, some of the Strait, Black and Yoakum he sang in college, some of his favorite songwriters, such as Hayes Carll and Sean McConnell.
