Welcome To Chunkabillymusic!
Folk, "Grunge Folk", Americana, Blues, Garage, Alternative, Experimental, Independent...
The Sidewalk Boys have succesfully met the RPMChallenge for the fourth straight year... They're now four for four! They are looking to continue on the heals of their 2008 release and shows, which earned them some airplay on NHPR's "The Folk Show," as well as a nomination for "Best in Folk" for the Seacoast Spotlight Awards. Sidewalk Tom's tune, "Emerald Isle," was also featured on an RPMChallenge compilation disk.
Steering Wheel features 11 new songs that rose up from the dirt scraped from the floor of the Pemigewasset Dump, with songs written even though the actual words and notes were only enjoying a connubial visit. Their ideas were ripped out of the ground by the handful of used sixteenth notes and old words. The digits of the recorded evenings were excited about being ones and zeroes.
This year the Boys no longer dig with flimsy shovels, but have toughened their skins to penetrate the first order barriers that prevent true music. Using musical shovels the Boys fling western notes into the air with the rest of the swirling ideas. In the real world true music is rolled flat by ambition and greed, while at the Pemi Dump, true music has been freed to be unwanted and ignored in the present tense, which is actual art, not the cover tunes of yesterday’s flood. The electrical impulses, although captured and caged, seem free and easy.
The gigantic steering wheel is complete. It has been welded to the train and is turning slowly. Massive steel wheels crunch into rock and stone as the train carrying the entire month of February leaves the tracks.
So take a ride on the old tracks and read about the SWB's further exploits by heading on over to the Music Section for a free listen, download, etc., of their 2009 CD:
"The Sidewalk Boys, "Steering Wheel."
