What’s a fella to make of a band that’s described by one blog as being a "…haunting but sometimes playfully fun acoustic Nashville gothic band"? Huh? Whether you tastes run toward the dark and gothic or the happy and clappy, there seems to be something for everyone on this debut album by NYC’s Bobtown. So, are these collective folk a Dr. Jekyll or Mr. Hyde, you ask? Check out their site and make your own decision, but consensus would have it that they’re a little of both, as attested by a further examination of press blurbs on their Myspace page: "There is no band in town who sound like them. Mixing elements of country gospel, bluegrass and field hollers with an often macabre Nashville gothic tinge and soaring four-part harmonies…" (Lucid Culture, NYC); "Rich vocal harmonies and influences ranging from old-time gospel to pop combine to create a wonderfully original musical experience." (Muses, Muse, Atlanta); "…moody, rustic songs for the moonlit backroads" (NPR’s All Songs Considered Podcast); "Acoustic, Guthriesque American roots music complete with death references and chilling harmonies" (WMUH, Allentown); "If you’re looking for acoustic gothic-folk-americana kissed with gorgeous harmonies then look no further" (Americana UK).- (as posted in The Deli’s Open Blog – post your band’s entries, videos, and Mp3s here).
