Fat Tuesday’s with Paul Burch

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.”

Maybe this has been going on longer than I know but it seems that over the past few years there’s been a resurgence in Country Music. I don’t mean Coyote McCloud, Garth Brooks country. I mean heartfelt songs with a bit of twang and, ideally, a bit of self-deprecation and humor. Roy Ira falls right into that category. For me, Still Be My Love runs a wide enough gamut of inspiration from folk, americana, indie rock and even gospel that there’s something for everybody.

Full disclosure, this is a yk records release so I’m invested in its success but, let’s be honest, I’m invested in this because I like it and think you will too. That’s true of every band I write of here on the site. So enjoy!

It’s been well established that I know very little when it comes to hip-hop. However, I do know when I like what I hear and the latest from Day Old Records is phenomenally enjoyable. Truth Clipsy and Caveman the Wise have put together a compelling EP of tracks – equally laid back and always moving forward. Just listen, it keeps getting better the further in you go.
