Description
Exciting roots music, as rambunctious as it is infectious, it leads the listener into a collection of songs that weave styles and genres effortlessly.
'Revivals, Rituals & Union Songs' is the second album release from Southern Tenant Folk Union, a London based band that in their short tenure have shredded all expectations associated with the term 'bluegrass' and developed into one of the most exciting groups performing and recording roots music in the UK.
Their eagerly anticipated debut, brought instant recognition of the band's potential. A mere twelve months later they decamped to Reservoir Studios in London's Crouch End, where, under the guidance of engineer Chris Clarke (Alan Tyler, Redlands Palomino Company) went on to shape the material that would become 'Revivals, Rituals & Union Songs'.
2007 proved a pivotal year in fomenting then cementing the bands reputation; 'All You Need To Know' earned airplay and praise from Radio 2's most eclectic of DJs, Mark Lamarr. Other selections from the album were aired by regional lovers of roots music on BBC Scotland, Wales and Ireland and many independent and Internet radio stations.
Revivals, Rituals & Union Songs' does what every second album strives to do; it surpasses the achievements of its predecessor and should ensure easy passage for Southern Tenant Folk Union on to the next level in terms of their artistic and commercial potential.
