Blackwing Yalobusha to fly

Posted on March 22, 2007March 24, 2007 by Staff

The Moaners’ new release, Blackwing Yalobusha, is already gathering the group a splendid set of review as the duo, just back from a trip south that included Austin, New Orleans and Hattiesburg, get ready for their release party at Cat’s Cradle.

For the record, out this month on Yep Roc, guitarist Melissa Swingle and drummer Laura King traveled to the small house in Walter Valley, Mississippi where blues revival label Fat Possum once house its studios.

The sessions amid the ghosts in the heart of delta blues country were rockus as is the record that came out of them.
Mississippi Moan: The Making of Blackwing Yalobusha, a mini documentary of the trip south and the proceedings in the studio filmed by Yep Roc label chief Tor Hanson, is available on the Yep Roc site at http://yeproc.com/artist_info.php?artistId=958 or at The Moaners site at www.themoaners.com/
The release show for Blackwing Yalobusha is at Cat’s Cradle Saturday, March 31 at 9:30 p.m. Spider Bags and Un Deux Trois open. Tickets are $8.
