Carolina Coverfolk, Volume 3: Carolina Chocolate Drops (An African American String Band recreates the Piedmont blues) As noted previously (and as made obvious by the fact that this post is Volume 3 in a series), in recognition of our return to the Outer Banks for the fourth time since 2008, we're in the midst of a set of Vacation Coverfolk features pulled from the archives of past trips to the North Carolina coast with a newly penned post on The Avett Brothers scheduled for the end of the week as a triumphant finale to our collected survey of music of, from, and about the region. Earlier this week, Volumes 1 and [...]

Best Records of 2012 | 40 – 36

40. Patrick Watson - Adventures in Your Own Backyard - Patrick Watson is gaining steam with lush orchestrated indie-rock / folk songs that seem to float and quiver over this excellent album that was remarkably recorded in the singer's apartment. There are vast sounds coming from every angle, and Watson uses his voice to fog over these orchestrations creating a huge sound that will delight you from every angle. Check out Into Giants, a very Simon & Garfunkel(y) sound as well as the title track that will spin your head. Listen: Patrick Watson - Into Giants [...]

There was lots of great stuff to be seen, including a hot performance from The Duhks , featuring a full reunion of original members, including singer Jessee Havey and fiddler Tania Elizabeth. Also on the lineup were a slew of Cajun and Zydeco bands, a fun blues performance from [...]

Carolina Chocolate Drops – drop it like it’s sweet

Carolina Chocolate Drops – drop it like it’s sweet This is what's making me happy today... Carolina Chocolate Drops, "Hit Em Up Style" - from the album  Genuine Negro Jig Ann Powers over on NPR's All Songs Considered  turned me on to this.  And turned on is right. Jazzed up. Knocked out.  Normally, in the past, this kind of roots music didn't appeal to me, but I think Gillian Welch kind of opened my eyes/ears to being more receptive to what I had dismissed as [...]

Festival Preview: FreshGrass @ MassMoCA, Sept. 21-23 (14 covers of John Martyn, The Pixies, The Police, tradfolk & more!) It's hard not to love the idea of a bluegrass festival with its own IPA, brewed and provided by Greenfield, MA locavore haven The People's Pint. Nor is it possible to ignore the appeal of hanging out among the grand exhibits and well-curated artspaces of MASS MoCA , one of my favorite museums, which has long held my deep respect for its role in revitalizing the mid-Massachusetts contemporary arts scene, and has recently become well known among the hipster set for hosting envelope-pushing performing arts of all types, including newly-localized band Wilco, lush lo-fi hipster heroes Handsome [...]

Carolina Chocolate Drops Perform Leaving Eden

Carolina Chocolate Drops "Leaving Eden"
This group of musicians make beautiful music, and that is really all I can say about it. It takes me back to that good old stuff that I used to hear my great uncle and grandmother play and sing.

Unfortunately you can't see or hear Dom very well in this recording but he is playing some really nice guitar. [...]

From The Desk Of Rhett Miller: Carolina Chocolate Drops

Carolina Chocolate Drops Preview "Genuine Negro Jig"
Rhett Miller cut his teeth with the alt-country Old 972s, but years before the band released Too Far To Care, the catchiest and most compelling distillation of its cow-punk-meets-Brit-Invasion template, Miller put out his own little-heard first solo album, Mythologies. Now 2,800 miles from Dallas, where he got his start, Miller is a family man [...]

The New Sounds of Folk Music

The New Sounds of Folk Music Folk is one of those genres that doesn't get the love it should. It's understandable, really, most of us bloggers aren't baby boomers. And when we were doing our musical walking (as opposed to musical crawling), we were listening to rock or hip-hop or a subsidiary of those forms. So, it hardly seems relevant to report on what's happening to such a tried-and-true musical form that they play only at Starbucks, right? Wrong. The past two years have seen a plethora of new releases which challenge, [...]
