简介

MICHAEL RANK “RED HAND” Like 70’s radio filtered through a Civil War fiddle, Red Hand plays as an ode to the soft-rock/ folk rock of his childhood. In this, his sixth album in a four year outburst, Michael Rank continues his mapping of 1970’s sounds. As on his previous releases Michael Rank is once again joined by a stellar collective of players including Heather McEntire (Mount Moriah), John Teer (Chatham County Line), James A. Wallace (Phil Cook Band), Gabriele Pelli (Old Ceremony), Jeff Crawford (The Dead Tongues), Tim Smith (Tim Smith Band, Orquestra GarDel), Nathan Golub ( John Howie & The Rosewood Bluff) and Ron Bartholomew. PRESS SAMPLING FROM 2015’s HORSEHAIR: There are albums that people talk about for a long time, important albums that make a statement about our times and/or create a sound never before heard. Michael Rank and Stag’s Horsehair isn’t one of those albums. It’s better. It is the kind of album people shut up and listen to, for a long time.That’s all I’ve wanted to do: just listen to the damn thing, and nothing else, over and over…POPMATTERS Horsehair is a superb album. This singer-songwriter is at the top of his game….NO DEPRESSION Horsehair continues Rank’s odyssey into classic seventies stained folk and country rock….. Capping this is the presence of Mount Moriah’s Heather McEntire who sings with Rank throughout, her voice cajoling, comforting and supporting his frail husk of a voice. They pair wonderfully in the style of Gram Parsons and Emmylou Harris on their most famous collaboration, Love Hurts, wounded hearts waltzing around to wounded music. Rank has nine songs here and they all have moments that raise the hair on the back of the neck... Two Shades is simply one of the best love songs of the past ten years....If Dolly Parton recorded this it would be considered a classic. So five albums in and Michael Rank just seems to get better and better….BLABBER’n'SMOKE t’s a perfect balance of grit and beauty, a noble goal that Rank has successfully pursued for his entire career, up to and including the elegant, expressive Horsehair…BLURT It’s a pleasure to write about his latest release Horsehair as the prolific songwriter continues to ride a rich vein of form…BEAT SURRENDER (With Horsehair) Michael Rank & Stag are creating some of the most interesting twangy rock & roll being created today….AMERICANA MUSIC SHOW Mr. Rank has teamed with vocalist Heather McEntire (Mount Moriah) and a supporting cast of pickers and players, including members of the critically acclaimed Chatham County Line, and created some of the most beguiling Americana-country-bluegrass this side of Emmylou Harris and Rodney Crowell…. Mr. Rank is at the top of his game….WASHINGTON TIMES
