It’s because 11/02 Jacksonville, FL - Times Union Ctr Perf Arts the Old 97’s have always been Anglophiles, 11/04 Pompano Beach, FL - Pompano Beach Amph and 15 years into their career, they’re past 11/05 Clearwater, FL - Ruth Eckerd Hall genre-tweaking — they’re lifers writing for 11/07 Mobile, AL - Saenger Theatre keeps. Bob Dylan may have recognized 11/08 Birmingham, AL - BJCC Hall as much when he greenlighted Miller’s 11/10 Memphis, TN - Orpheum Theatre inspired rewrite of “Desolation Row” (the carpe-diem warning “Champaign, Illinois”). 11/11 Grand Prairie, TX - Verizon Theatre But this multivolume project will still trigger honky-tonk mosh pits: See “A 11/12 Austin, TX - Bass Concert Hall State of Texas,” which suggests you can be true to your roots even when you’ve outgrown them.” -- Rolling Stone “Best of all is ‘Every Night Is Friday Night (Without You),’ a cold-blooded kiss-off that makes breakups feel exhilarating.” -- Spin Magazine, 7/10 Rating “This rave-up from the upcoming The Grand Theatre Volume One is part garage rock, part vintage British punk.” -- USA Today “Impossibly catchy” -- My Old Kentucky Blog Glide takes a ride down the Cumberland with Mike Farris “Mike Farris has been to hell and back, and listening to The Night the Cumberland Came Alive is further proof of what salvation—both in the physical and spiritual sense—has done for him. Gone are the drug and alcohol binges, the hard living and the mainstream success he experienced as the frontman for the Screaming Cheetah Willies back during the ‘90s, and in their place is a wizened man who would rather rock for charity than for accolades and financial gain (proceeds from the album will go towards the victims of the recent Nashville floods by way of the Commu- nity Foundation of Middle Tennessee). It is actually a pretty refreshing thing to see, because while Farris might not be storing up his treasures on earth, so to speak, this six-song EP is full of gems. From rousing spirituals (“Dear Lazarus”) to bluesy piano numbers like “Mother Earth,” Farris is constantly writing and playing on this album in light of the reality that this life goes by in a flash, and that there are questions and facts we all ought to come to grips with sooner or later. The latter track reminds the listener that all the clothes and fancy vehicles in the world will not make a heap of difference when we die, and the funky ragtime track “Don’t Let the Sun Go Down” is a raucous number that punctuates the importance of making every moment count and living your life with purpose. As on his previous releases, Farris not only knows how to have a good time but he also tells his story without the audience feeling like they are being preached to. A prime example is on the blues stomper “Wrapped Up, Tangled Up” where Farris uses a fishing story to talk about how good it feels for him to have been snagged by Jesus despite all the squirming and resisting Farris did along the way. Given his past, it would have been easy for Farris to turn this song into an altar call and talk about the fires of hell that await those who need Jesus, but instead he focuses on the fact that his life is now better with Jesus than it was without, and he just lets the example be what it is. Farris sings with passion aplenty, his sometimes raspy Southern drawl able to reach soaring heights as his throaty wails fill the air. Fine performances by a rap sheet of guest vocalists—including the McCrary Sisters, Gill Landry of the Old Crow Medicine Show and even members of Farris’ own Roseland Rhythm Revue—help round out the album in fine fashion. Cumberland is a solid album for a good cause, and there is a lot to like about this album; one of 2010’s liveliest and most enjoy- able listens.” - Glide Magazine, 10/8/10 Coming up for adds on 11/8: Peter Wolf & Neko Case “The Green Fields Of Summer” Listen to everything and find out more at www.rightarmresource.com as well as facebook.com/rightarmresource or twitter.com/rightarmjesse RIGHT ARM RESOURCE WEEKLY UPDATE - 10/27/10.
