Have Moicy

Description

* Fans include Cat Power, Devendra Banhart, and Andy Cabic of Vetiver
*Tracing the lineage and citing the fore-bearers of the New Weird America, one cant help but mention the music of bizarre folk
singer/guitarist/artist Michael Hurley. If you havent been following his career since the 1970s (when he was collaborating with the likes
of the Holy Modal Rounders and Jesse Colin Young) then you probably discovered him in the past couple of years via Devendra
Banharts & Andy Cabics label Gnomonsong, who have released Hurleys recent recordings.
*Hurleys debut album, First Songs, was recorded for Folkways Records in 1965 on the same reel-to-reel machine that taped Lead
Bellys Last Sessions. He was discovered by blues and jazz historian Frederick Ramsey III, and subsequently championed by boyhood
friend Jesse Colin Young, who released Hurleys next two album on The Youngbloods Warner Brothers imprint, Raccoon. Hows that for
cred?
*In recent years, tours with Son Volt and high praise from younger performers like Lucinda Williams, Vic Chesnutt, Calexico, and Cat
Power, have increased Hurleys legend.
