Migrations

From: $11.98

With each release, this Canadian quintet's adventurous, energetic eclecticism sounds more like a signature fusion (and less like bluegrass, despite Tania Elizabeth's fiddle and Leonard Podolak's banjo). The material on Migrations ranges all over the map--geographical as well as musical--with a pair of spirituals steeped in the tradition of Georgia's Sea Islands ("Moses, Don't Get Lost" and "Turtle Dove"), a zydeco romp through Cajun country ("Down to the River"), a ballad in tribute to an Irish patriot ("Who Will Take My Place?"), a syncopated revival of Tracy Chapman's "Mountains o' Things" and the ragtime blues of "Ol' Cook Pot." While a pair of instrumental medleys highlight the musicians' acoustic virtuosity, the soulful vocals of Jessee Havey and their ability to fashion songs from a variety of sources into such a cohesive whole distinguish the Duhks from folk acts, jam bands, or any other musical category. --Don McLeese

The Duhks have a very unique blend of music. The would probably fall into the folk/bluegrass category. The rythms are amazing but my favorite part about the group is there multi-part harmonies. This has quickly become one of my favorite albums...

Don't expect any Nashville twangy voices, or a fire-burning Choctaw Breakdown. But if you enjoy folk music of any kind, these recordings will touch you deeply. If you've never listened to the Duhks, this album is one to try -- not just one song,...

The Duhks were already wonderful, but they just keep getting better with each new release. This time they take a turn toward more pop, more accessible music and rely more heavily on Jessee Havey's wonderful husky voice. In the process though,...

Playing Time - 39:38 -- The Duhks' progressive "neo-folk" or "cerebral folk" music is best described as highly-arranged folk and Americana that draws inspiration from various genres such as old time string band, Celtic, soul, gospel, folk, and...
