Routes and Branches Play List 11/05/11

Gram Parsons birthday landing on a Saturday was enough of a reason to make him this week's feature artist. Although he never gained what one would call commercial success with his music, Parsons is known for how he blended country music with rock to create the beginning of what we now call "Americana" music. Thank you Gram!!

To balance the vintage music of Gram Parsons on this week's show I had the band Stereotyped from southern Oregon into the studio to play a couple of their new songs. Stereotyped call their music "Blackgrass", a mixture of all that life has to offer from their lyrics about life's hard side to the uplifting feel of the music behind the stories. Along with using banjo, guitar, fiddle, bass and drums to create their music, Stereotyped also makes use of megaphones to sing and play harmonica through giving the vocals a sound hearkening back to what old AM radio sounded like.
