Mr. DEViN MiLLER

Come On Down To My House
Mr. Miller played Deep Blues Festival 08. This is what I wrote about him then and i'm stickin' to it. Hell of a guy. Check him out: DEViN MiLLER Devin Miller ain't nothing but trouble. He's a hellraisin', honkytonkin', 'stone lovin', guitar slangin', singin' songwritin' babyfaced grandson of a pig farmer. Twenty-five percent equal parts Jerry Lee, Keith, R.L., Hank, Elvis, Carl, Johnny, and Jack. That adds up to two hundred percent all American badass. Just like The Deep Blues Festival . [...]

AGNOSTiC MOUNTAiN GOSPEL CHOiR

Nov 4, 2008, 11:31am THE DEEP BLUES BLOG
AGNOSTiC MOUNTAiN GOSPEL CHOiR You ever see film of cotton harvests in the old days during the change from man handled mules to the machines who replaced them? Full of clank and clatter, hollerin' and dust. That film was too old, too scratchy, too shaky for a soundtrack but somehow this odd and raw, grimy four piece from Calgary, Alberta, Canada has managed to roll an international harvester around the last couple o' hundred years of hard roots music history to raise and buck a genre busting bale of hay and dust devils into a rockin' hoedown and barbecue of urban hollerin' [...]

COMO NOW: The Voices of Panola Co. Mississippi. Recorded Live at Mount Mariah Church July 22nd 2006 From the folks who brought you Sharon Jones and the Dap-Kings ...Deep in the heart of Mississippi lies Como, a small rural town where children and grown folks alike have been living and breathing gospel music for as long as they can remember. In July of 2006, Daptone Records placed a small ad in a local paper inviting local singers to come down to Mount Mariah Church to record their songs. The result is ''COMO NOW,'' a stirring collection of traditional and original gospel from the voices of COMO's own families. Deep in the heart of Panola County, Mississippi lies [...]
