Antique Persuasion
“When Silver Threads are Gold” – “Really nice project, a brilliant album” -
Marie Crichton
BBC Radio Shropshire
Tribute to The Original
Carter Family
Antique Persuasion – is
honoring the original trio of A.P., Sara, and Maybelle with this unique
collection of Carter Family classics. Antique Persuasion, like The Carter
Family, brings two female voices and one male voice together on a dozen of the
Carters’ best songs. This tribute album includes “Bury Me Under The Weeping
Willow,” which the Carters recorded at the original Bristol sessions and
“You’re Gonna Be Sorry Cause You Let Me Down,” the last song ever recorded by
The Carter Family.
Bluegrass fans will
recognize familiar voices in Antique Persuasion: Brandon Rickman of the Lonesome River Band lends his talents on
vocals, guitar, and mandolin; Jenee
Fleenor, who can usually be found playing fiddle, mandolin, and guitar and
singing background vocals for Blake Shelton & Larry Cordle, brings her
talents to bear; and Austin, Texas-based artist Brennen Leigh rounds out the trio.
With the release of DON’T
FORGET ME LITTLE DARLING, producer Jimmy Metts honors the timelessness of the
original Carter recordings by gathering the talented Rickman, Fleenor, and
Leigh around the mic to sing the old favorites using today’s best technology. The
arrangements are similar to the original recordings, and the music rings true.
Each member of Antique Persuasion sings lead on four songs.
Songs chosen include the
first and last songs the Carters ever recorded, “Bury Me Under The Weeping
Willow” and “You’re Gonna Be Sorry Cause You Let Me Down”, respectively, along
with another ten songs they were known for performing...Read more Bluegrass Today

The Bros. Landreth
”Firecracker”
- “A
lovely album... the music is terrific, such a range of styles, the vocals are
lovely, the songs are catchy, it really is beautiful” - Marie Crichton BBC Radio Shropshire
Members: Joey Landreth - Guitar, Dave Landreth - Bass, Ryan
"Rhino" Voth - Drums, Ariel Posen - Guitar
Genre: Americana, Alt-Country, Roots
Hometown: Winnipeg
Slide guitar, blood harmony, and heart-on-your sleeve songwriting.
The Brothers Landreth specialize in love gone bad and cowboy lullabies.
Amazon.com Reviwew: Twenty seven years. Four bandmates. Two
brothers. One album. Let It Lie, the debut release from Canadian roots rockers
the Bros. Landreth, is proof that there s strength in numbers.
Anchored by the bluesy wail of electric guitars, the swell of B3
organ, and the harmonized swoon of two voices that were born to mesh.
At first listen, you might call it Americana. Dig deeper, though, and you ll hear the nuances that separate The Bros. Landreth whose members didn t grow up in the American south, but rather the isolated prairie city of Winnipeg, Manitoba from their folksy friends in the Lower 48.

It's a little hard to believe that the Bros. Landreth hail from Winnipeg, Manitoba, because of how well they carry the Southern rock mantle of the Allman Brothers on their debut album, 'Let It Lie.' Led by David and Joey Landreth, the foursome does an admirable job of copping a style and a sensibility foreign to their own environs.. Read more Folk Alley.com

“Learn
To Love Me Too” – “Sound is stone cold country, a gem of a track, blew me away”
- Marie
Crichton BBC Radio Shropshire
Genre: Country / Americana / Country Americana
Band Members:
Chris Malpass and Taylor Malpass
Home Town:
Goldsboro, NC
Record Label:
Hag Records
“This is who we
are…
My brother
Taylor and I do the type of music we do because this music speaks to us, and
speaks to the souls of its listeners. For us, traditional country music is the
‘real deal’ – every song portrays life’s joys, heartaches, problems and
happiness. It comes from the heart, and has depth and truth. Nothing is sugar
coated. Our goal, really, is to see this music be revived, to help ensure it
doesn’t fade away. It is so encouraging to have young people come to our shows
with a new interest in our ‘old music.’ Being able to introduce what we love to
another generation feels like a great accomplishment for us. We want his music
to be around for our children’s children…” — Christopher Malpass
The first time
you meet the Malpass Brothers it doesn't take long before you realize they are
as close to real traditional country music artists as you can get these days.
The Malpass
Brothers were steeped in country music from an early age when their grandfather
began teaching them how to play songs by Hank Williams, Sr., Merle Haggard,
Porter Wagoner, Kitty Wells and Ernest Tubb on the guitar.
With traditional
country music ingrained into them, it only seemed fitting that they would carry
on that family tradition. Little did they know that one day it would lead to a
steady gig of performing on stage with one of the country music legends their
grandfather admired.
Chris and Taylor
Malpass began opening for Merle Haggard in 2008, and continue to follow Haggard
all across the U.S. and into Canada broadening their musical talents and
comedic whit to audiences all across America and into parts of Canada.
The brothers
continue to perform with their own band across the country when not on tour
with the Hag. Influenced by the likes of Johnny Cash, Ernest Tubb, Elvis
Presley, Faron Young, Waylon Jennings, Marty Robbins, the Louvin Brothers, the
Wilburn Brothers and many other artists from that era, the brothers have been
able to fine tune their performances into a unique, but current style of
traditional country music and comedic banter.
They have also opened
for Ray Price, Marty Stuart, Rhonda Vincent and Willie Nelson.
"Memory
That Bad" was released in the spring of 2011. The album includes originals
by the Malpass Brothers, Haggard, and Joss - along with a few covers of some of
the brothers' favorite songs from the past.
They signed an
exclusive recording contract with Crossroads’ Organic Records, with the new
recording produced by Bluegrass legend, Hall of Fame member Doyle Lawson. The self titled album was released May 26,
2015. The label signing came in the same
week as the NC brothers’ performance during the World of Bluegrass festival in
Raleigh.
Christopher and
Taylor tackle brotherly harmonies with covers of the Wilburn Brothers'
"Which One Is To Blame" and the Louvin Brothers' "Satan and the
Saint," as well as the original tale of unrequited love "I Found
Someone to Love."
Christopher
supplies the strongest lead vocals as on the Malpass' other original "Learn to Love Me Too," a ballad
with touches of Merle Haggard and Gene Watson that deals with self doubt . Other
highlights are the Jerry Lee Lewis rockabilly classic "It'll Be Me"
delivered here by Christopher with a vocal that sounds more like Carl Perkins,
and a pair of Hank Williams covers "Baby, We're Really In Love" and
"I Just Don't Like This Kind Of Livin'" on which the vocals sound
more like a young Hank Jr.
