Hogan & Moss And The Old Weird America In The Golden West (CD)

(Hogan & Moss) 15 tracks.
Original songs with old souls. The Carter Family canon. West Texas waltzes, Appalachian mystery rants, vintage country, blues and soul and midcentury swing. Part folkabilly scorch, part 1930s dancehall, part neon desert twang.

It sounds like Ireland, North Mississippi and East Tennessee, and an imaginary place where songs by Tom Waits, Townes Van Zandt, Amy Winehouse, Nirvana, Warren Zevon and Billy Joel are rearranged by the likes of Hank Williams, Jimmie Rodgers, Bob Wills, Geeshie Wiley, A.P. Carter. and the ghost of Blaze Foley.

It’s uplifting and dark, historical, primitive, modern, joyous and haunting.
