Dark Hollow Band rocks on . . .
When the inspirational spirts of Jimmi Hendrix, Bob Dylan, Neil Young, Jimmy Buffet, Creed, Willie Nelson and The Monkeys met with the soul of country music a new Knoxville Band was formed -The Dark Hollow Band
Just when you think you've figured out their style, they sing another song that surprises you. While inspired by other musicians, they are not quite like anyone else.
A six member group whose musical style has been described as electric bluegrass, acoustic rock, americana, and my personal favorite, folk and roll. I have listened to their cd, and their style is reminiscent of sixty's folk and rock and roll, the descriptions fit. Bluesy guitar riffs, mandolin, flute and the whine of the occasional harmonica chord blend with the vocal talents of Wilkerson.
There's something about the music made by Dark Hollow Band that folks find irresistable. Even if they are wallflowers, even if they're stuck with two left feet, they find themselves getting up and grooving to the country-soul shuffles the band makes wherever it plays.
How 'bout that Dark Hollow Band- a little blues, a little rock, a little folk - a little bit of everything.
Gentle and true
Very nice, slow and deliberate. Wise words simple and strong. I've been listening to lots of rock and this is like coming home, back to the root of things. Lovely lyrics. I could listen to this again and again. 'People in love are crazy, lazy welfare, nice lyrics and well mixed up for the second verse. I like it. Love the guitar which is recorded well and the minimalist backing from the harmonica?

Nice
It’s simple and plain and the lyrics are . . . not. Its feels like you are taking good care of the old traditional storytelling music. It takes a special skill to tell a story this way and get the listener to “hook”, so that he or she just cant stop listening until the last tone rings out. You got that skill! Its great! Thanks!
