Pokey LaFarge & The South City Three
Riverboat Soul
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.
'Lawd knows we need people like Pokey LaFarge. Coming on like a bastard son of Woody Guthrie and Blind Blake, this is the kind of stuff Ry Cooder's been trying to do for decades: no-holds-barred, honest-to-goodness sheet-kicking music of the highest order.' --Julian Piper, Acoustic Magazine
