New Blackie and the Rodeo Kings CD: South

Supergroup, Blackie and the Rodeo Kings once again show the world why they're one of the leaders in the folk rock arena.  Their recent CD, South boasts some of their best work and that's saying a lot.


Consisting of a core trio (Hamilton's Tom Wilson, Colin Linden and Stephen Fearing), the band have created a stunning album.  The music runs the gamut from acoustic ballads to toe tapping rockin' country.

This fabulous trio is backed by the top notch rhythm section of Johnny Dymond on bass and Gary Craig on drums.  Harlan Pepper even join in on the fun offering their vocal harmonies.

With the exception of one track, an amazing cover of Willie P. Bennett's Driftin' Snow, the rest of the album is all original.  Not bad for a band that started with a one-off Willie P covers album.

The CD is available at many music shops and also from their online store. It can also be downloaded though eMusic and iTunes.
