Review:
Back-porch hymns, drunken hollers, and well-worn lonesome folk melodies mingle with each other in a blues-infused play between life and death. Rough three-part harmonies croon the dark tales over mostly acoustic instrumentation: Banjos, mandolins, guitars, dobros, harmonicas, handclaps and assorted percussion, such as an iron rail, hearken back to simpler, unamplified times. Tom Waits-influenced, sandpaper-larynx vocals. Played Kispiox festival 2014.
