Colin Cutler’s long-awaited folk Americana album of songs rooted in Flannery O’Connor’s short stories is finally here. Tarwater stretches across the roots music world, from acoustic oldtime and country to electric blues and roots rock, and is the most ambitious of his albums so far. 8 years in the making, it is a collaboration with his own band and legendary grassroots performers from around Virginia and the Carolinas.
The project has already earned recognition from the National Endowment of the Humanities, No Depression, BBC Introducing, Glide Magazine, ArtsGreensboro, B-Sides and Badlands, and Twangville, and charted in gospel, alt country, and folk, while the last year has seen him and his band playing at Merlefest, Shakori Hills Grassroots, the Susquehanna Folk Festival, Antlers and Acorns Songwriters Festival, and the Carolina Bible Camp Bluegrass Festival.
Free entry, tips for the band encouraged!
