Hear It Now: Maiden Radio’s ‘Wolvering’

by Wendy Geller

Kentucky-based female traditional Appalachian folk trio Maiden Radio has just released a brand-new set, Wolvering, which has evolved from their six-year exploration of the genre. The album shines a light on some darkly beautiful early American songs, as well as several originals done in their trademark three-part harmony.

Yahoo Music is excited to offer fans a listen to the full album right now, in order to get a taste of Maiden Radio’s unique approach.

“We are part of a revival of traditional music alongside our contemporaries and friends: Anna and Elizabeth, the Murphybeds, Redtail Ring, The Downhill Strugglers, among many others,” explains the band. “While giving reverence to the origins and stories within them, we’ve attempted to distill the songs on Wolvering down to their most essential parts in hopes of capturing a more revealing story of person and place.”

The album derives its name from the place where it was recorded: The trio spent a week of January tucked away in remote Wolverine, Michigan, where these songs were captured, mostly in live format. You can even can hear the crackle of the fireplace as backdrop to some of the music.

R. Ring is Kelley Deal and Mike Montgomery. It is voices, guitars and keys. It is sparse, chaotic, abrasive and lulling, often within the same song. It is new. It is, at the very least, a stark departure from the music they make in their other bands (Kelley with The Breeders and Mike with Ampline).

Kelley lives in Dayton, Ohio. Mike lives in Dayton, Kentucky.

Dangerous Minds is currently premiering R. Ring’s new Paul Klee-inspired video “Loud Underneath” which was created by artist Cy Gaven.

PURE VOLUME PREMIERES DIRTY STREETS NEW TITLE TRACK “WHITE HORSE”!

CLICK HERE TO LISTEN TO THE PREMIERE OF DIRTY STREETS NEW SINGLE “WHITE HORSE” VIA PURE VOLUME!

Memphis-based power-trio Dirty Streets are gearing up for the release of their fourth studio album, White Horse (their second for Alive Naturalsound Records) on Black Friday.

Following the release of their well-received 2013 album, Blades of Grass, the band began writing and recording material for this new record. As frontman Justin Toland explained, “We wrote and re-wrote tons of songs and it really ended up hitting a great point as far as expression. We recorded at the renown Ardent Studios in Memphis with our friend Matt Qualls this time, who is a great engineer and really helped in forming the sound of the record. It became a very pure time creatively for us and I feel we locked into something we hadn’t previously. Over all, it worked out in a way that we could take more time to find our sound than we previously had.”

And judging from these 11 red-raw tracks informed by the band’s love of deep soul, funk, blues and heavy boogie & psych-rock it was time well spent.

“This album is definitely more fluid and natural,” Toland continued. “We made a big deal out of just feeling out the songs rather than getting them technically perfect. Percussion was definitely a compass as far as groove on this one. If we couldn’t play the tambourine, or shaker with feeling then it wasn’t cutting it. It was actually Budos Band that was a huge influence as far as groove goes for the writing of this record.”

Following various tours throughout the U.S., including a successful run opening for label mates Radio Moscow, Dirty Streets will be bringing their pile-driving live show to a city near you soon (initial tour dates listed below).

Dirty Streets’ White Horse will be available on Limited Vinyl, CD & digital formats on Nov. 27th via Alive Naturalsound Records. The stunning psychedelic cover art was created by Joshua Marc Levy of Asheville Art Family.
