CHERRY BLOSSOMS - VINYL LIVE IN AMSTERDAM [VINYL]

Popis - LIVE IN AMSTERDAM [VINYL]:
The Cherry Blossoms are to folk music what the Velvet Underground was to rock'n'roll: rebellious, pure, anti-commercial, and unlike anything else. Specializing in kazoo, 6-gallon bucket, poetry, carefully awry drum rhythms, guitar, and vocals that span octaves, melodies, and time, the Cherry Blossoms are unforgettable. Lead singer Peggy Snow has said that "No one tries to control what anyone else is doing when we play." The result is a sound that is ecstatically free, layered, and ranging. While songs like "Amazing Stars" follow a chorus sung together in sweeping, traditional hymn with a few quirks, other songs skip and spaz into a trance awash with unorthodox folkloristic layers. Their sound is at once elusive and timeless (Have I heard this song before?). It's a sound they've been honing for twenty years. The Cherry Blossoms are sure to go down in history as one of the great folk bands of the 21st century. With a rotating cast of 3-8 performers, their line-up has changed over the years, but most recently consists of: Peggy Snow, John Allingham, Chuck Hatcher, Taylor Martin, Chris Davis, and Allen Lowry. Ever eclectic, members of the band are talented in their own rights. Peggy Snow is a prolific painter, John Allingham is finishing a rock-opera 10 years in the making, Allen Lowry writes amazing unconventional poetry, Chris Davis also plays drums in Lambchop and is an incredible music curator/contributor to the Nashville music community, Chuck Hatcher can rock any Zeppelin song in existence. the list goes on and on and on. They are local legends in Nashville and sure to make music history. The Cherry Blossoms have toured in the U.S. and Europe, performing with bands such as Six Organs of Admittance, Josephine Foster, Magik Markers, and Charalambides.
