Västra Nyland Review!
Sara Selenius has reviewed the new split EP with Black River Bluesman and Red Mouth for the Swedish-language Finnish daily Västra Nyland: "Red
Mouth, the man with the red beard, has an interesting dialect and draws
his doomsday prophecies in a straightforward sermon, but with positive
undertones. /---/ Here there's no question of whether it's the blues
we're listening to or not - here the thoughts go directly to early Delta
blues musicians, especially Robert Johnson. From Roots' guitar strings,
groovy bass ostinatos are born and delicious, simple melodies slide on
top of augmented ninth and sus chords. These songs are stripped-down and
melancholy, but with extremely warm and honest interpretations from
both Red Mouth and Roots. Hope the collaboration continues for at least
another 10 years."
