Up and At Em is the third and final (for now!) Zoe and Cloyd song from our session in West Asheville. We managed to walk away from this day of recording with three great treasures.
Their brand new album is out now! Check out "Songs of our Grandfathers" : [ Ссылка ]
Words from Zoe and Cloyd themselves: “‘Up and At ‘Em’ is one of my favorite Jim Shumate compositions and the title track to his 1991 album of that name. Jim was always proud that this record made it onto the Library of Congress/American Folklife Center’s list of outstanding folk recordings of that year, as it marked his return to recording after a decade-long hiatus. Since this tune is in a minor key, it really dovetails well with the klezmer material on Songs of Our Grandfathers, especially with Natalya’s added doina intro.
Microphones used:
Ear Trumpet Labs Delfinas (Fiddle, Guitar)
