Moccasin | en

From: TN, United States Genre: Country, Rockabilly, Alternative Hip Hop The homegrown sound of Moccasin Creek is the most progressive and raw voice to hit the music scene since Hank Williams Jr and Jamey Johnson. No softly crooning southern gentlemen here, just good ole boys from the scrubs of Palatka, Florida and Nashville, Tennessee. This is the real south and it isn’t pretty. Dismantling the current crop of gentlemen and sweethearts, they feed the intense craving for hard-lined lyrics depicting hard-lived lives. When you hear fist-punch poetry blended with knuckle-grinding guitar, you know you’re staring down the barrel of Moccasin...

Denver's Moccasin (formerly known as Nightingale) have created their own natural sound entangling thick swells of guitar with dreamy vocal melodies, rooted by a deep and heavy rhythm section. They have erected a sonic giant; wielding fuzz pedals, reverb tanks, and tape echoes as a means to forge immense walls of analog sound. Comparisons have been made to the Verve, Black Sabbath, Hawkwind, Ride, Sonic Youth and Spacemen 3. Moccasin self-released their six-song "Last Leaf" EP and have successfully toured the west and east coasts. http://www.myspace.com/moccasinmyspace .
