LARKIN POE BACK DOWN SOUTH

Larkin Poe have teamed up with Tyler Bryant to drop the latest single from their upcoming album Self Made Man. ‘Back Down South’ is a riff-heavy track full of the expected twanging guitars and influence from every one of their classic rock heroes, but the pair give blues/country rock a spin that is all their own. Powerful lead vocals treat us to endlessly addictive melodies, angelic organ chords maintain a thick texture and truly impressive production turns the mid-point point solo into a feast for the most committed of audiophiles. The pair explain that they “take pride in being part of a new generation of music-makers who are building upon the foundations that were laid by countless musical pioneers across the American south”. Hopefully Larkin Poe can help to bring this style of music back to the forefront through their accessible yet authentic sound. - Dan Peeke
