About The Dead South
The Dead South have never been about
constant reinvention, but about full commitment to their own singular way. With
confidence in their sound and style and trust in each other, The Dead South
arrive at the cusp of explosive global success in an enviable, and well-earned,
position: total autonomy. It doesn't really matter what you call their music -
progressive bluegrass, alternative Americana, country, folk and western, what
matters is that this is theirs, and people from all different backgrounds, beliefs,
experiences, languages and ages love it.
True blue right through, The Dead South
don't shy away from ruffling traditionalists' feathers from time to time, as
they flawlessly execute banjo rolls and lightning-fast mandolin tremolos,
3-part harmonies and songs of classic themes -murder ballads, disloyalty,
ghosts and the like, all with a wink and a smile. As they continue their climb
to the top, The Dead South have learned an important lesson: If you're going to
be outsiders, you'd better be great.
Confirmed by the passion of their Dead
South cosplaying fans, who go to concerts in the band's signature look, this
four-piece acoustic set from the middle of the Canadian prairies have found
their people. Good Company, as they call themselves, is a global community of
vastly dissimilar folks who might not see eye to eye, but who stand shoulder to
shoulder at the gigs.
