JUBAL'S
KIN
The distinctively spare sound is grounded in a love for what can only be called the pure and real, at once embracing both a strong roots tradition and fresh indie folk - "Appalachia-infused Cosmic Americana." At live shows or in the studio, a seemingly new subgenre is created, their songs displaying raw emotion vulnerable and unassuming with handcrafted spins that creak and stomp like a wooden dance floor...As the group continues to tour, the chemistry of their live shows have really become their calling card and, drawn by the honesty of their songs, fans at shows and festivals alike connect to the music - real music - that bares its soul like the brothers and sister on stage. Sometimes adding the lush accompaniment of pedal steel and drums on stage, they'll often tour simply as a trio - deftly pairing subtle folk with all the guts of old-timey flair. Their self-titled debut record was recorded and co-produced by Erick Jaskowiak at Compass Studios in Nashville. Jaskowiak has worked with some of the most talented progressive groups in acoustic music and otherwise, including Crooked Still, Alison Krauss, and with artists on the Cold Mountain soundtrack. Joined by upright bass virtuoso Byron House (Robert Plant, Emmylou Harris) and guest banjoist Luke Richardson, the album was officially released on April 14, 2010. Since then, their extensive touring and live chemistry has led them to festivals and stages of all shapes and sizes, and to share stages with the likes of groups du jour such as Crooked Still, Carolina Chocolate Drops, Hoots & Hellmouth and Over the Rhine.The album as also brought some critical acclaim and, early in 2011, was shortlisted for the GRAMMY Awards and had nominations in the Independent Music Awards (Americana Album + Album Design), winning the Album Design category. Plans for the group are now spiraling towards a second album and an ever-relentless and fun-loving touring schedule. Plus taking some time out to drive fast and eat their
