Artist: Rhubarb Whiskey

CD: Rhubarb Whiskey EP


Label: Self Released

--

Rhubarb Whiskey is a San Francisco based duo with Emchy on vocals & accordion and Boylamayka performing vocals, guitar, mandolin and upright bass. Their debut EP is a minimal, lo-fi experience. The band hasn't just stripped away what they don't need, it seems like it never occurred to them to include superfuous crap in the first place.

What they present on this short-player is inebriation and hangover music. Songs written in an alcohol haze and tempered with the moring-after-blues. These six songs are roots/regret music, pieces that could have been written any time since the creation of whiskey, guitars and remorse.

Their style may be too raw for some listeners, which is a shame... but everyone should at least love "Lilacs from Canada", I know I do.
