Kettles I Eno
The Jake Leg Chronicles
Ever go to a rattlesnake round-up with only a buck knife and a fifth of Jack? How bout a 1400 mile trip with the cops on your tail every step of the way? The Jake Leg Chronicles, the first CD by kettles | eno takes you to the places in the south where most people dont dare travel. This aint Pigeon Forge with the grandparents. No stereotypes, just truth. The songs have a heavy southern gothic feel that would almost lead people to believe The Jake Leg Chronicles owes more to Faulkner than Earle and Prine. Recorded with Atlantas elite musicians at Meaner Studios, the music lays down an Americana solid bed for the melody and harmonies aplenty. The result is a very enjoyable listen with lyrics that deliver a realistic view of living in the south, along with a truth or two that just might stick with you.
