Menu:
- Joseph Allred (Crawford, TN)
https://josephallred.bandcamp.com/
“For listeners familiar with the rich tradition of American Primitive guitar, Joseph Allred is a name that is quickly becoming synonymous with its innovative evolution. Like the genre’s predecessors that include fingerpickers such as John Fahey, Peter Walker, and Robbie Basho, Allred masterfully blends East-meets-West influences, weaving together ragas, rags, and the soulful sounds of Appalachia.
However, Joseph’s musical landscape extends far beyond the acoustic guitar. Allred is a true multi-instrumentalist, incorporating the harmonium, banjo, and other folk instruments to expand an already diverse sonic palette. Releasing work that has been described in fascinating ways: from baroque pop with psychedelic flourishes to compositions featuring glockenspiel and horns, percussion ideas and experiments reminiscent of Danny Elfman and Tom Waits, and even nods to post-rock-filtered western guitar twang and the dreamy ambiance of the Cocteau Twins.
Allred was born and raised in Tennessee with a musical home that is far less tethered to a single locale by releasing records that not only reveal the depth of connection to American Primitive guitar, but also a deep exploration of rural mysticism, an internationally oriented inquisitiveness, and even idiosyncratically reinterpreted shoegazing.” - The Big Takeover
