| The Morrison - Ruby Folk, Country, Acoustic, Alternative Country | 29/05/2017 |
The Morrisons are a 7 piece alt-bluegrass/folk band from Sydney's Inner West.
[Jimmy Daley] When I wrote this I was listening a lot to the Osborne Brothers and The Country Gentleman. Those bands were so good at merging the traditions of bluegrass with pop sensibility, songs like ‘Rocky Top’, ‘Matterhorn’, ‘Fox on the Run’. It’s my favourite period of bluegrass music.
