a family band dating way back to the 1920's and going throug many stages and eventually including johnny cash who married into them through june carter, a lovely lady..
their earlier musical style is what is now known as americana, and popularised by the movie "oh brother where art thou" starring geoge cloonie, and their stykle was typical of that which is immortalised in that movie..
they have been known as country and as country and western, but those aspects of their career uindermone the raw vitality and importance of this familly,
their style can be likened to blues and to an extent jazz, and many blues men in fact intermingled their styles with the carters. notably hubby leadbetter, better known as leadbelly, who's "in the pines" cobered by nirvana as "where did you sleep"
for any on with an interest in getting rooted with music, or getting good dtrong musical roots instead of covers of covers of covers, then this family act should serve you well in hearing souds from bygone eras in their raw and unadulterated form, a class act..
