| The Disclaimers: Drive Add to My Profile | More Videos The Disclaimers, Wayne Irby and Kelley Norris, are Oxford’s own version of cosmic American music. The duo, augmented by other Oxford pickers, are patterned from Gram Parsons and Emmylou Harris’ amazing early 70s collaborations. The group is full of inspiration from Americana legends Townes Van Zandt, John Prine, and Lucinda Williams to name a few. They’ve spent the last couple of years bringing their musical quest for redemption to venues in and around Oxford with a semi-regular booking at Taylor Grocery.Their sound is reminiscent of driving around in a rusted pickup truck on Highway 334 out past Yocona, not really going anywhere, but having plenty of time to kill and plenty of beer to drink. These are not songs or sounds for lovers of modern country music, but for those of us who think the best American music was made in the era before the internet and hybrid cars and cell phones, this is the stuff.If Larry Brown had written books about local bands, this would have been his favorite. He wouldn’t have been able to resist songs that are perfectly at home in cotton fields and cattle ranches and all the best dive bars. If you like acoustic music with a real depth of feeling and substance, The Disclaimers are sure to be a local favorite of yours as well.Andrew Coffman Oxford Town April 26, 2007 Myspace Editor Pimp MySpace How I made my profile: I used Dave & Jay's amazing myspace profile editor . |
