Twang Nation – The Best In Americana Music
Americana & Roots Music & Culture
Get your Southern gritty groove on (by way of Oregon) with this new video for Root Jack’s “Dead Man’s Hand” from their upcoming “Oasis Motel.”
The band says that the video is a “…DIY affair. Using a single light bulb, an old sheet, and some public domain video.” The “video-ographer” was 16 year-old Max Vegas.

This episode is festive a mix of gritty (Possessed by Paul James, Doc Dailey, Matt Woods ) and glorious (Laura Repo, Whitehorse, Matraca Berg) and concludes like an empty Tecate can perched on top of a silver tensile Christmas tree, with the classic Robert Earle Keen’s Merry Christmas from the Family.
