Homeboy Sandman - Atlantis

Amy plays the banjo

A handful of songs recorded in my friend Ross's basement. You can hear the neighbour using the circular saw in a few of them. This one goes out to my old roommates in vancouver, and to CJ, Chi and Pajama Grandma, my pals at the big box store in calgary, a pretty lady on fraser street, Crowfoot, and another lady that I spend way too much time with. Right then, good luck in the weird and scary world out there...

Home Again

Lasan

Evangelist Records of London is founded by Lewis Durham, producer and member of the band Kitty, Daisy and Lewis, and  American Joe Walters. The Evangelist studio is an all analogue affair, controlling each part of the recording and mastering in house to create a truly authentic sound. The debut pairing of releases from Los Angeles bluesman Blind Boy Paxton and St. Louis ragtime hero Pokey LaFarge, showcase this sound amazing sound perfectly, with both being issued at 45 and 78 rpm. 

Jerron "Blind Boy" Paxton has travelled far from his Compton, California home and spreads the old time music tradition with him wherever he goes. He is a featured player on the recent Frank Fairfield album "Out On The Open West" and they frequently tour and preform together. He is a musical genius who is an accomplished piano, guitar, fiddle and banjo player.  "Dirtiest Little Darling" comes from his first ever professional recording session and features both Lewis and Kitty Durham.  It is a sizzling session that would not sound out of place on a classic reissue, but is modern and makes a stark debut statement for both Paxton and Evangelist. 

Pokey LaFarge is a St. Louis based player of all forms of American music, who is impossible to classify though many have tried. Pokey himself calls it String Jazz Ragtime Blues, and thats good enough for us. He has three albums out and a single on Jack White's Third Man Records. He has gained international acclaim through relentless touring and is currently playing to sold out halls all across Europe following a triumphant appearance on Jools Holland's New Years Eve Hootenanny. For Evangelist he completely re-invents two American Standards "Fan It" and "Shenandoah River".

Lewis Durham is an avid collector of 78's and finds that they most accurately reproduce the music he loves, produces and  is now issuing. These 78's will be issued on a strictly limited basis and come in a hand printed and numbered company sleeve. They are sure to be treasured for generations of collectors to come.
