Remember Elle Macho? Did you know they never released a full-length record? Well, they’re changing that. I’m oddly interested.

Fat Tuesday’s with Paul Burch feat. William Tyler

Fat Tuesday’s with Paul Burch feat. William Tyler

Over a decade of critically acclaimed albums, Paul Burch’s original and riveting mix of rock and roll, blues and honky tonk has been described by USA Today as “music that sounds thoroughly modern but completely unlike contemporary country” and Entertainment Weekly has called him “a modern day Jimmie Rodgers.”

Both in his recordings and his live shows, Burch is frequently backed by his long time group, the WPA Ballclub, and together they put surprise improvisational twists into Burch’s original compositions that feature baritone guitar, fiddle, Hawaiian steel, Latin American rhythms, atmospheric tape loops and feedback. The combination makes for vibrant, haunting music that seems unmoored to time or continent or what UK’s Mojo magazine described as “the sound of a celestial jukebox heard from around the corner.”

– “Whole”
Gilding the Lily

Saw these guys at Road to Bonnaroo and, despite my pre-conceived distaste, they sorta won me over. It’s a bit 12th and Porter from what we typically showcase but they’re talented guys.
