Darrell Scott returns with "Old Cane Back Rocker" - the new studio project from Darrell Scott String Band. The collection of Darrell Scott originals and fully reformed covers (Southern Cross, Banjo In The Holler, etc.) is his first studio record since April 2020.
From Darrell: I am fortunate to play with amazing musicians - always have had my ear to the 6 winds to assess players and their strengths and the music we would make... electric or acoustic, 2 or 5 people, country, folk, blues, string players, grass, rocking, quiet or loud - WHATEVER the category does not matter (as it is just a category) - there has always been a group of great musicians near to help me get there - and yes, i am lucky
HERE'S HOW THIS RECORD CAME ABOUT- we had 2 consecutive weekend gigs (arkansas and colorado) and rather than sending us all back home, in between weekends, i kept us out the following week days in a band house in louisville, colorado (so we could walk to moxie bakery every morning) and drive to boulder every day to record
So for 3 days (with only a playlist of the songs sent to each player) and a call to my friend and great musician, nick forster, to use Etown studio in boulder, we were ready to render what you hear is what we heard at the end of those 3 days of tracking and singing (we added john cowan voice, daniel de los reyes - percussion and shalom aberle - voice, later)
