Curst Mountain
The Curst Sons’ keenly anticipated follow up to “A Day Late and a Dollar Short”, “Hell Awaits You”, continues the boys’ vigorous rummage through the roots music of pre Rock & Roll USA. Irreverently mixing elements of Blues, Folk and Bluegrass with occasional hints of Afro-Latin and New Orleans Jazz, the Curst Sons’ raw and rootsy sound is both deeply traditional and weirdly contemporary. Luke Cresswell plays percussion on three of the tracks on Hell Awaits You. Oscar nominated film...
Inspired by vitality and spontaneity of early American folk music the Sons mostly write their own songs, avoiding reverential “folky” imitation and adding a shot of urban grit and a dose of rye humour. This collection includes some songs first heard in live session on Mark Lamarr's BBC Radio 2 show. "A fine new album...loads of good things..." - Mark Lamarr BBC RADIO 2
