Routes and Branches Play List 01/29/11

This week I had The Shinkle Band into the KRVM studio to play us some live music on the air. The Shinkle Band is made up of brothers Aaron(vocals, guitar, Harmonica) and Byron(Vocals & Percussion) Shinkle, Albert Fitisemanu(Vocals, Guitars, Bass) and Scott Eastburn(Mando, Banjo, Fiddle). Their self titled debut album is available on their website: http://www.shinklemusic.com
Although this is their debut album, The Shinkle Brothers have been making music for years and their music has been compared to the Eagles and The Band. I also think they have some pretty good harmonies like CSN too.

The other special part of today's show was being able to feature Greg Allman's new CD "Low Country Blues". I haven't seen a CD shoot to number one on the Americana Charts since Robert Plant released "Band Of Joy" last fall. Now we will have to see if Allman can stay at the top for as long as Plant who was there until Allman knocked him out. I suppose you got to be a heavy weight to beat a heavy weight. "Low Country Blues" is co-produced by Greg Allman and T-Bone Burnette who brought in a great cast of musicians including Mac(Dr.John)Rebennack. I think the great cast helped inspire Greg to be as good as he has ever been.
