AshevilleFM Live Music Sessions – Blushin’ Roulettes

Band Info:

The Blushin’ Roulettes deliver old-time tunes with a modern twist.  “Their songs are stripped down, sexy little jewel boxes stuffed with ancient mountain magic,” says the San Francisco Free Folk Festival. Guitaress and songwriter Angie Heimann belts her stirring songs of damsels in their bliss and distress in a clarion vibrato often likened to Iris Dement. Cas Sochacki interlaces bright dobro stylings and upright bass amid the rich lyrics of the Roulettes’ more serious songs, and rings in vocally with his molasses baritone on the occasional cheeky duet. Jay Brown adeptly layers electric guitar, harmonica and harmonies.
