The Harmonica Lewinskies - NEW LP Dad Rock

NYC’s magical minstrels The Harmonica Lewinskies  go big with some bold and brash sounds on their new LP ‘Dad Rock’ A Smörgåsbord of tasty delights, massive horns and rhythm the lads rock the suspenders right off your body and get you shimmy shaking like a Pentecostal choir. Yet another spectacular release from Mama Coco’s Funky Kitchen. 

“What is "Dad Rock?" If you don't immediately understand the combination of these two words, then break down other genres. What is "Garage Rock" without a garage? What is "60's Rock" without the 60's? It's just "Rock." 

The Harmonica Lewinskies second LP, entitled "Dad Rock," is a 13-song encapsulation of 13 genres spanning from the early 60's to the late 80's. Simply put, the Lewinskies want to show you how maybe, just maybe, without "Dad," there would be no "Rock." "Dad Rock" could be simply defined as "AOR"( Album-Orientated Rock). It's the hand-me-down blues, funk, and rock music that one comes to love on account of the sequence of the album not the radio-saturated "single." The Lewinskies want to preserve the classic sound of our fathers and mothers before us, and their fathers and mothers before them, so on and so forth. 

A potent blend of punk, funk, big band, jazz, americana, and blues, the Harmonica Lewinskies, "Dad Rock" - LP, shows where they've been, where they are, and what they want to be. Listen responsibly.”

Trout Steak Revival "Live At Swallow Hill" FREE Download

From Trout Steak Revivals beginnings as an informal jamming unit during treks through the peaks of the Front Range, this Denver based roots quintet has evolved into one of Colorado’s most tightly knit, hard-driving bluegrass bands. Their brand of heartfelt songwriting blends dynamic musicianship with intricately woven harmonies, all tied together with the unmistakable sound of their years of friendship.

Band members Steve Foltz (Mandolin and Guitar), Will Koster (Dobro, Guitar), Casey Houlihan (Upright Bass), Travis McNamara (Banjo), Bevin Foley (Fiddle) follow in the bluegrass tradition, with each member of the band composing original tunes and adding harmonies. From sweat-soaked clubs to mountain festivals, the five-piece has shown a tenacity for quick-picking and all the right polish without sacrificing the raw feeling of well-executed bluegrass. The band has earned a place in the mountain states roots scene, performing to sold-out audiences, and placing in the Rockygrass Band Competition. Keeping an eye on traditions of the past but boldly forging into new territory, Trout Steak takes us back to memories of whiskey, laughter, and the misty high country where the band was born.

The EP contains two new originals “Go On” and “Union Pacific,” cover versions of Bob Dylan’s “It takes a Lot to Laugh, It Takes A Train to Cry,” Harlan Howard and Freddie Hart’s “It Takes One To Know One,” Tim O’Brien’s instrumental “The High Road,” and a cover of The Tallest Man on Earths song “Where Do My Bluebirds Fly” that was on Trout Steak Revivals sophomore CD “Flight.”

Old Death Whisper, The Traveler

Rico, Chuy, Kent, Wes, Drew & Cole

Old Death Whisper is a cocktail of dirty western roots music and country tinged parlor tunes.

ODW loves good old country and folk music of early America. Sea shanties, spaghetti westerns, railroad songs, road movies, pulp, noir, punk and rock and roll are among some of their influences. With 4 song writers in the band and each one taking their turn on the mic, the tunes have diversity and yet a common thread of the love for this kind of music. Whether it's plugged in or broken down and acoustic; the live shows are full of piss and vinegar. Keeping their sound grounded in the roots of western American music, Old Death Whisper lets their sound drift into widescreen sonic voyages, down dusty trails, dirty back roads and seedy dive bars.

Old Death Whisper’s first full length album The Traveler is a culmination of dirty western road stories, reflections of heartbreak, murder ballads and good old drinking songs. Inspired partly by two years of touring the states as well as Europe, The Traveler shows that Old Death Whisper is a no bullshit operation that bases their music on real experiences with real people in sometimes surreal situations. Founded in the roots of American music, but not limited to old west themes and cowboys, The Traveler is a modern commentary on the road, survival of the heartbroken and the western American lifestyle. Road life, divorce, dusty trails and smoky dive bars were the incubators of this album and have produced a genuine western gothic tale of The Traveler. The lyrics for the title track (written by unknown) were found in an old desk and put to music by the band which helped to form the roaming theme of this record. The Traveler was recorded at the Audio Lab in Boise, Idaho with Steve Fulton. The sound is energetic, gritty, dirty, spacious and sometimes gentle in its ferocity.

Old Death Whisper has been comfortable in their relative obscurity, and feels that The Traveler will show that the band has not grown complacent. Four singers and songwriters set Old Death Whisper apart from standard combos and allow the band to venture into different personalities and voices. Songs like Storm Rider and Idaho Gold pulse with a solid angry groove while Last Train and Always a Stranger find a more intimate tone.

The band has been feverishly playing their brand of wide screen dirty western roots music for over 3 years. Whether touring foreign countries, playing secluded dive bars around the rural west or hitting the festival scenes, Old Death Whisper is not your typical bar band. They like to play hard, cuss, drink, smoke, fight and love; but most of all they enjoy playing music. Made up of artisans, river guides, fishermen, fathers and fools; Old Death Whisper is a thick stew of experience and stories.
