Angels and One-Armed Jugglers is Chris Barron’s solo project, but wait – do not worry, Barron has no intention of leaving the Spin Doctors. The album is meant to provide him an opportunity to explore musical avenues that would not fit with the Spin Doctors. Angels and One-Armed Jugglers features eleven originals by Barron. He worked alone with his guitar to write the material and has plans to tour support the album in a solo setting as well. However, on this recording, there is a full band backing Barron which features Saturday Night Live drummer Shawn Pelton, bassist Jesse Murphy and an array of NYC session players. Barron is singing again after his medical hiatus due to a paralyzed vocal cord. His songwriting is unique, and the music is varied, the short of it is, it’s good!
