Last Sunday night the Basement, in Nashville, was open for quite a cool event; the CD release tour of Crooked Still's new record, Still Crooked. There have been some personnel changes in the band in recent months, but one would never have guessed as their sound was still uniquely defined. Former cellist Rushad Eggleston left the band in November 2007, and the quartet quickly turned into a quintet adding a fiddle player (should have done that a long time ago) and a new cellist, Triston Clarridge. (He's won the Grand National Fiddle competition three times!)
I was nervous that their sound might have changed with the new line-up but I was very pleased to hear that Crooked Still was definitely "still crooked". For the full write up please visit: mycrazymusicblog!
