Shaving A Dead Man

Description

Produit par Chance McCoy (Old Crow Medicine Show), « Shaving A Dead Man » embraces with exuberance the traditional folk music of the Appalachians. It features the typical Appalachian fiddle and banjo, American gothic soundscapes, and a cover that is both whimsical and macabre. The repertoire is a true ancestral treasure, but newcomers to the genre will be captivated by the hypnotic and enchanting sound of JP's banjo, the spectral and bluesy emotion of McCoy's fiddle, and songs with lyrics that evoke a mythical, mysterious, and sometimes even deadly universe. « This album offers authenticity to those who wish to discover traditional music, without necessarily going through field recordings. I am not a mere museum reproduction. Asserting my identity means saying that I remain a unique artist, even though I am a traditional roots musician. This allows the new generation of somewhat atypical music enthusiasts like me to identify with it. » - JP Harris
