New York, NY (Top40 Charts) The tousled and tumbled roots on a new compilation titled "American Mercy" (out NOW on CD and digitally) are driven as much by fine songwriting as skilled playing executed with a voltaic edge.
Title - American Mercy
Featured Artists - The Sour Dogs (Newcastle Upon Tyne, UK), Michael
Daughtry Band (North Carolina USA), Joe Fiddle (UmeƄ, Sweden), El Kachon (Novo Mesto, Slovenia), RedBelt (Wisconsin USA), Pikapolonica (Gorizia Italy) and Alan Ibbotson (Sheffield UK)
Release Notes - Slathers of influences on display here: Rock `n' Roll, Rockabilly and Psychedelic Folk; music that just sounds big with hauls of melodies along the lines of Los Lobos,
John Prine and Clover. The mix even expands that palette a bit with a dash of innovation in the form of a lenient indie push making for a memorable set of high-quality and listenable Americana.
