Album Review - Devil in a Woodpile - In Your Lonesome Town
By T.J. Simon
Devil in a Woodpile specializes in the sort of no-frills blend of
ragtime and delta blues that has become a weekly staple at The Hideout,
a roadhouse bar nestled in a heavily industrial neighborhood of Chicago.
The group's informal Tuesday night gathering is one of the city's
friendliest musical traditions, and it typically features the band's
members seated in a semi-circle as the Pabst-drinking patrons gather
around them. The warmth of this weekly event is captured perfectly on
the ensemble's latest studio release In Your Lonesome Town, which
features a dozen, old-time trips through the "porch music" genre.
