Riverboat Soul

Riverboat Soul
- Music
From St. Louis, Missouri comes a wonderfully fresh and quirky kind of pop music that combines a riverboat ragtime sound with Delta-meets-Appalachia songwriting, all laid down in front of a big, big swingin' beat. LaFarge is a neo-hobo, constantly traveling and continually inspired by early American roots music from throughout the land. But while Pokey LaFarge and his crew may summon the likes of Blind Blake or Leon Redbone, and their music may be a fitting soundtrack to R. Crumb's comics, don't call it old-timey. Pokey and the South City Three are here to grace this electric world with their unique sound, throwback and rough around the edges but with a modern twist. Riverboat Soul is what they call it, which just so happens to be the name of their latest recording, brought to you with great pride by Free Dirt Records. Produced with the help of Phil Harris in Nashville, Tennessee, the recording features old pals Ketch Secor (Old Crow Medicine Show), Tommy Oliviero (Bawn in the Mash).
