The Cleverlys Blue (CD)

(Mountain Home) 12 tracks - digisleeve

From the deep Ozark hollows of Cane Spur, Arkansas,The Cleverlys have been plucked from obscurity and landed in the studio to produce their first national label release, Blue.

With songs like Beyonce’s 'Irreplaceable,' LMFAO’s 'Party Rock Anthem, Justin Bieber’s 'Baby' and 'She’s Not (Ain’t) There' by The Zombies, this music would be at the
edge of being full camp if it weren’t for the obvious vocal talent and stellar picking that holds up to any of today’s progressive acoustic bands.

'If Earl Scruggs, Dolly Parton, and Spinal Tap spawned a litter of puppies, it would be The Cleverlys.' –The New York Times. This faux family group brings the comedy they’ve been
hailed for in their national touring to this new recording, their first on the award-winning Bluegrass label, Mountain Home Music Company.

Band leader Digger Cleverly says, “I believe young folks, older folks, thicket thugs,librarians, college students, truck drivers, spam eaters, crop dusters, county fairs to
livermush festivals, eyelash studios to tattoo parlors, mail carriers to body wax unions,
Champaign to Pabst Blue Ribbon, will get something out of this project.”

Every art form needs to be able to laugh at itself, and The Cleverlys do so, without making a mockery of the genre. Make no mistake, Blue is as phenomenal as it is clever Pop-Bluegrass fusion.
