COMMUNITY MUSIC
SAM GLEAVES & TYLER HUGHES: Once upon a time, the folk music boom was subversively dubbed the folk music scare due to everyone that picked up a guitar thought they were the new Dylan. Super sweet, home grown sets like this would have inspired manques to move the boom into the scare since they are so natural and real. This is a subversive set in the true spirit of the original movement folk music. A male duo honoring home spun women writers and singers without changing the pronouns--I guess that fits in with today's transgender stuff but this duo isn't looking to dig any more deeper than give props where props are due. Given the high sign by organic stalwarts like John McCutcheon and Cathy Fink, this organic duo from the land from whence they sing do not disappoint. Easily making today's issues sound like they were written in Phil Ochs' original time, this is the kind of folk music you don't have to be reticent about admitting to your kids you like. First call throughout and an example for comers to follow.
