Listen to TheDeadSouth4's 'Sugar & Joy' album a day early
The Regina, Saskatchewan-based band enlisted the help of FAME Studio-trained producer Jimmy Nutt for the versatile 14-track album. The project combines the quartet’s love of bluegrass and country as well as Spaghetti Westerns as heard on the aptly titled song “Spaghetti.”
The Dead South channel traditional country and bluegrass instrumentation with their combination of cello, mandolin, guitar and banjo on each track alongside stirring four-part harmonies. Songs like the foot-stomping “Heaven in a Wheelbarrow” and driving “Crawdaddy Served Cold” hold a darker sentiment despite their upbeat feel.
Crawford returned to the band after departing in 2015 and his influence is heard on “Act of Approach,” which he wrote years prior while learning how to play banjo. “We played around with it in the early days; it’s an instrumental banjo song. We sliced it up and used it as the intro and outro,” he says.
