Broken Land Bell - The Wiyos

The Wiyos  - Broken Land Bell

The Wiyos have been on the circuit for 6 years now, by way of New Orleans and New York, both of which heavily influenced their sound and performance; it is said that  theyfollow in the tradition of medicine show buskers and vaudeville acts.  This, their fourth CD, primarily blends country, blues and Western Swing, to create a rather unique sound.  The chorus of stand out track Angeline is even sung in French, whilst the toe tapping All Aboard takes on a more gospel edge.  Dontchaletmecatchya is delivered quickly, with a great sound which clearly comes from  New Orleans, taking us on a brief musical journey through some of the Southern States. Anyone looking for something a little different, musically, give this a try.
