Yep, this is it!...the album that hit # 3 on the Roots Music Report Folk charts!! American Fallout's Americana Sampler Volume 1 is filled with timeless, original music that can be enjoyed by a diverse cross-section of people from around the world - honest, genuine music in which content comes before image. These artists have something to say and a unique way of saying it; these are artists who make music on their own terms. This is Americana, outlaw country, rural indie art-rock, progressive bluegrass, alt.country, contemporary folk, psychograss, insurgent country, cowpunk, no depression, alternative roots rock, modern old time music...Call it what you will...This music is the real deal.
What exactly does this mean?...Well, to be honest, we're not sure, but we know it when we hear it. The lines between these genres are not so much clearly defined as they are fluid, changing and overlapping. By definition, many have an affinity for things close to the earth, a down home,unpretentious demeanor and a common thread of integrity interwoven with styles which are uniquely
American. We like cutting-edge artists who aren't afraid to push the envelope. This music often requires an open-minded listener who is not bound by the shackles of conformity, convention and the status quo. There is often a reverence for tradition mixed with a desire to say something new in a unique way, often with an innovative blending of various influences. Much of this music has the ability to transcend
generational and cultural differences. While much popular music has tended to reinforce divisiveness, this music often brings people together.
