 For Kevin Barber’s second Diamond Horseshoe Records release, he is joined by the Lucky Sevens for this six song EP recorded at legendary Sun Studio in Memphis, TN.
Engineered by James Lott & Matt Ross-Sprang, and mastered by Larry Nix (Stax), Greetings From Memphis features story songs and stripped down instrumentaion surrounded by the classic 50’s vibe and sound of the Sun Studio room. From the Rockabilly homages of tracks, Here We Go & Brooklyn Hillbillies to the blues infused, St. James River, country inspired Morning Biscuits, torch song styling of, Far From You and the jazzy Floyd Cramer-esque instrumental Roadrunner, Greetings From Memphis has sprung from the deepest American Roots.

Published by Kevin Barber & Diamond Horseshoe Records - ASCAP  2009 Diamond Horseshoe RecordsMade in USA  Kevin’s Note First appearing on 2007’s, BURN, I revisited my song, Brooklyn Hillbillies so it could be recorded at Sun. Scotty Moore’s picking style on the early Elvis Presley Sun Records is a huge influence on my playing and I wanted to add my inspired picking styles to the history of the room. In love and respect for Scotty Moore and his influence on myself and Rock-n-Roll, I dedicate Brooklyn Hillbillies & Here We Go to him. Thanks Scotty. -Kevin Contact Kevin At: Diamond Horseshoe Records Kevin Barber P.O. Box 11645 Las Vegas, NV 89111 kevin@kevinbarbermusic.com |
