Uncle Shuffelo & His Haint Hollow Hootenanny - Uncle Shuffelo & His Haint Hollow Hootenanny [CD]

Uncle Shuffelo and His Haint Hollow Hootenanny are unmistakably part of a tradition of homegrown, Middle Tennessee old-time music. While they describe themselves as not being a "family band," they are kin and are in good company with other well-known Middle Tennessee family music makers such as Uncle Dave Macon and his son, Dorris and Sam & Kirk McGee. The band sings and plays music that is traditional, fun and diverse but that also fits their shared strengths and wide interests in new and old music. You'll hear tunes on this record that were pulled from popular old-time country and string band sources such as Mainers Mountaineers, the Tennessee Ramblers, Uncle Dave Macon, Jimmie Rodgers and Earl Johnson. This is old time music at it's best and this, their first serious recording, will be a hit with anyone who likes American roots music.
