    Into the Great Unknown takes Bradford’s trademark soulful Roots/Americana sound and digs deep to an uncharted depth. He crafts passionately hopeful melodies to carry you through the gritty conditions of Southern slavery in Get on That Train. Stampede uses a haunting refrain and soaring strings to paint desperately beautiful imagery. See You On the Other Side and Dead Man’s Dance employ powerful intricate melodies that will get your feet stomping.
    In depth, breadth, feel and composition, Into the Great Unknown is a bolder more daring leap for this songwriter whose original debut was just a foreshadow of his extraordinary talent.

lyrics

I was raised in a poor mans town, the blood of my father painted the ground
The fear of a man was all I knew, I'm drawn in the sights of an aim that's true (^)
We've been living in a funeral pyre that we've built ourselves just to set it on fire
Fire set it on fire set it on fire

I ain't had nothin but anger and shame It's building up now like a runaway train
Set my mind once to try to get free left me hanging from a tupelo tree
Cut a man down and cage his heart, all you've done is set him on fire
Fire set him on fire, set him on fire

Oohs x2

I've spent 10,000 days on the end of this chain, ain't getting nowhere but closer to the grave
I've lived all of my life like a man on the run, hiding in a hole till kingdom come

Oohs x3

I've spent 10,000 days on the end of this chain, ain't getting nowhere but closer to the grave
I've lived all of my life like a man on the run, hiding in a hole till kingdom come

Ain't no map gonna be my guide, just a sign pointing to Hell on both sides.
I can't live even one more day, howling like a dog at the end of this chain
End of this chain, end of this chain, mmmmm
