Michael Rudolph Cummings is known as the vocalist/guitarist for East Coast stoner grunge band Backwoods Payback. His new solo album “You Know How I Get” arrives as part of Ripple Music's revered acoustic series "Blood and Strings" (which previously featured stellar solo releases from The Obsessed's Scott "Wino" Weinrich and Mos Generator's Tony Reed), featuring material that is dark but subdued in volume and temperance, recalling the ditch-trilogy era of Neil Young and the slower moments of Townes Van Zandt, while also bringing to mind modern acts such as The White Buffalo.
