Crack A Smile (Live At Staggerfest 2013)

The story behind the first song on Garbles… “Thinking Parts”. Thinking Parts is actually the last song that we wrote for the album. We wrote most of the music while messing around during a practice and we added the lyrics later. The lyrics are written from the perspective of a public figure losing their mind in the middle of an election.

Post-roots trio Dangermuffin casts a fresh perspective on American roots music. Based in Folly Beach, SC, the group is anchored by the thought-provoking lyrical wit of songwriter Dan Lotti and framed by Nashville-veteran percussionist Steven Sandifer and fluid lead guitarist Mike Sivilli. Dangermuffin brings a new level of groove to Americana music — a punchy, folk-jam pastry with a sweet-toothed soul of the South.
