Fold Your Hands Child, You Walk Like A...

"manners" by peasant
Peasant Indie / Folk / Alternative Doylestown, Pennsylvania, United States Peasant is the perfectly chosen nom de plume of Pennsylvania's alt folkster Damien DeRose. His tender, weather-beaten vocals and sparse, guitar-driven tunes ache for a simpler life, a world that's long since disappeared. Damien doesn't so much play guitar as gently caress it, teasing out hypnotic, captivating tunes that are as sweet as a sugared peach [...]

Preferably Peasant

Mar 19, 2008, 7:27am Pasta Primavera
Preferably Peasant Time spent in Doylestown, PA led Damien DeRose to hone and develop the twist and turns of his alter ego, Peasant, and his unmistakable songs. In February 2008, Peasant put out his third release, On The Ground , on Paper Garden Records . This is an album that is filled with quiet, catchy folk pop whispers of songs. DeRose's song writing ability is magnificent and the production only adds to it. In the corners of each song you find distant notes and cadences that energize his melodious voice and rhythmic guitar. The greatest [...]

Orange Alert's Music Minute

Mar 16, 2008, 8:08am What to Wear During an Orange Alert?
Orange Alert's Music Minute It was back in July that I told you the man called Peasant had just finished recording his Paper Garden debut record, On the Ground . Well it us finally here, and even more beautiful then I could have imagined. Damien DeRose is from Doylestown, PA, and he has the ability allow all of his experience, passion, and heart to slowly and softly drift through speakers and into open minds.

Cleaning out the review pile:: Peasant & The Wombats

Mar 6, 2008, 4:14pm Herohill
Peasant - On the Ground Damien Derose is more than the sum of his parts. Guy + guitar + floating folk melodies is an equation that has tried far too many times, but it's surprisingly easy to embrace this record. His vocals are light and the comfort of the double tracked falsettos really thickens the songs and lets the images dance around your headphones. The guitar work is understated, but well done. He creates floating, dreamy textures and you can easily settle into his magical world. Everyone wants to be the next Elliott Smith [...]

Peasant Releases On The Ground

Mar 4, 2008, 11:01am Instrumental Analysis
Peasant Releases On The Ground When given the new album On The Ground by Doylestown, PA native Peasant (aka Damien DeRose), I must admit thatt I was a bit wary. Typically I have to have the urge to listen to the indie-folk man with guitar genre, I usually do not seek it out. Until now. From the opening with a country-twinged "The Wind" to the ending with the airy "Impeccable Manners", this album held my rapt attention. Peasant makes his guitar a second voice, blending perfectly with soft, almost wispy vocals. Lyrically, his writing is heartfelt and introspective, a dove-tailed fit [...]

Buzzworthy??? Or Not???

Mar 4, 2008, 10:24am Pop Tarts Suck Toasted
Who: Peasant Location: Doylestown, PA Thoughts: Listening to Peasant is like listening to about a million singer/songwriters that have come before him. With hints of folks like Bright Eyes, Elliott Smith, and Damien Rice, the man has gained quite the following, but to me it all comes out sounding like an unoriginal derivative of everything that has come before it. His voice is nice and melodic

Irresistible Charm of Peasant; On The Ground

Feb 28, 2008, 9:11pm OBSESSION COLLECTION
Irresistible Charm of Peasant; On The Ground T he irresistible charm of the arrangements and vocals on Peasant's full length On The Ground released by Paper Garden Records has folk pop elegance and unexpected detailing. The songs of love and loss are genuinely stated. Warm and dreamy vocal harmonies are delicately entwined with inventive composition. It is seductive and yes beautiful. Peasant's music is like the Sirens persuasively calling from the distance. The sounds are muted as if to [...]

Stop For Her

Feb 28, 2008, 3:39pm My Life is a Stereo
Peasant's Damien DeRose has the acoustic troubador stylings of many of the excellent artists that have come before him, but it would be unfair to categorize him merely based on precedent. Peasant's new album, On the Ground, may look and feel like something familiar, but it shines with a confessionary storytelling that is refreshingly his own.

Can you tell us the origin of your moniker in 20 words or less? I felt upset, oppressed, and generally put down in a lot of ways. John Lennon. 2.
