Dirt, the latest album from John Valby, is a raunchy and hilarious collection of songs that are sure to leave listeners in stitches. Known for his irreverent humor and uncensored lyrics, Valby delivers another round of bawdy tunes that are not for the faint of heart.
The album kicks off with "The Ballad of Harry Lewis," a ribald tale of a man who is "hung like a horse" and loves to show it off. From there, Valby takes listeners on a tour of his twisted mind, with songs like "The Polish Divorce Song," "The Asshole Song," and "The Vomit Song."
Despite the often crude subject matter, Valby's musical talent shines through on tracks like "The Blues" and "The Drunkard's Lament." His piano playing is impressive, and his ability to craft catchy melodies is undeniable.

"This album is dedicated to fun-loving people everywhere. Here's hoping freedom of speech means me too." John Valby
