DRIFTERCOUNTRY.COM REVIEW

Das hier ist eine Übersetzung aus dem holländischen. Den Originaltext findet man auf driftercountry.com. Vielen Dank an Carl Everaert!


Within the last few weeks Driftercountry.com was increasing activities on an international level. Besides a number of Canadian bands and an English band comes a German group. Heinrich XIII and the Devilgrass Pickers have a second CD release titled “13: the devil’s dozen”. The history of Heinrich XIII and the Devilgrass Pickers is a story that applies to many good country bands; the men took their first musical footsteps in other musical genres such as the metal scene. But in the time around 2005 the interest in country music was turned into a band; the Devilgrass Pickers. In 2009 the quintet from Wölfersheim, Germany bring out their first album, Devilgrass Country. A collection of demos, live recordings and experiments. Though the band considers “13: the devil’s dozen” their first official album. “13: the devil’s dozen” is a debut CD. And what a debut! I dare to say that many American bands can only dream of such a debut. The album sounds mature and can be compared with colleagues like Bob Wayne and Joel Kaiser. I don’t choose these names for no reason, because both, Joel Kaiser (Hobo Outlaws) and Liz Sloan (former fiddler Bob Wayne; now Filthy Still), play guest roles on the album. Heinrich XIII and the Devilgrass Pickers was one of the bands occurring on the European version of Muddy Roots 2012. The energy and sheer fun the band had slammed into the tent can also be heard on “13: the devil’s dozen”. When you have a chance to see that band live, don’t hesitate!

J.B. BEVERLEY TOUR CANCELED


Die USA hat J.B. Beverley nicht ausreisen lassen, was bedeutet, dass er seine ganze Europa Tour nicht wahrnehmen kann und deswegen auch unser Rebel meets Bembel am 21. Oktober 2011 im Keller der Turnhalle Södel nicht stattfinden kann. Staatsfeind #1: der Musiker

2011-08-22:
U.S. DATES CANCELED


I don’t know, what’s wrong with us, but somehow we just can’t make it into the US. This time we even got banned for lifetime and we can only come back with special visas. Fingerprints were taken very, very accurate and the gangster photos we’re shot and we almost had to spent the night in prison.
At least we made it to american ground this year. Maybe we’ll see something outside the Airport next year…

So: all 2011 USA shows are cancelled.
