Info
Of all the places you might find a band that incorporates banjos, plastic buckets, spoons and washboards, Portland, Ore., probably isn’t near the top of the list. And yet, that’s where you’ll find Hillstomp, an Americana rock duo that takes Appalachian bluegrass, North Mississippi blues and the ghost of Carl Perkins and blends them all together in a high-octane tour through Americana. If you caught them opening for Reverend Horton Heat at the Knitting Factory on July 30, I need say no more. Fortunately for those who missed the show, they don’t save the stomp just for their incendiary live shows. Their latest disc, Darker the Night, is fresh off the presses, and contains enough string work to satisfy blues and bluegrass purists, while cranking the subwoofer hard enough to crack the cones if you’re not careful. Nearly half the songs on the disc are covers, either of traditional songs or from artists like Mississippi Fred McDowell, but none of them sound dated. Between Henry Kammerer’s fluid picking and John Johnson’s high-on-rhythm percussion attack, each track pops with energy and sheer virtuosic joy. There’s not a weak song on the disc. Period. But a couple of songs do stand out, even in a field of greats. “S.I.R.” comes closest to flat-out rock, trading out in the banjo and cigar box guitar for a howling electric guitar. R.L. Burnside’s “Jumper on the Line” gets an oddly sprightly turn, while the gents clearly had a good time with the “won’t get drunk no more” chorus of “Old Plank Road.” Of course, if all you want is fast-paced blues with a monster thump, “Banjo Song #2” and “Cardiac Arrest in D” will do the trick. Good for parties and driving fast, Hillstomp is the real deal.Brandon NoltaHillstomp's new studio CD is entitled Darker the Night, on Portland¹s In Music We Trust Records. As with past Hillstomp releases, the music draws heavily from north Mississippi trance blues, a bit from Appalachia, and burns with the energy of punkabilly, but Darker the Night charters new territory, peering into the darker corners of the band¹s psyche while maintaining the celebratory nature of Hillstomp¹s raucous blues-billy stomp.
In addition to Hillstomp's signature trance blues, Darker the Night showcases banjo songs, a small guest list of elite Portland musicians and even adds the sweet sound of a baying hound to the recording. On Darker the Night, Hillstomp has duct-taped together a powerful and distinctive album of original songs, traditionals, and the occasional revamped blues classic.
Hillstomp's previous studio CDs, One Word and The Woman that Ended the World were highy acclaimed. The Woman that Ended the World received rave reviews nationally (Magnet), overseas (UK, Norway & Italy), and debuted at #15 on the USA's Roots Airplay chart. The album was also chosen as the Best Local Album of the year by the Willamette Week, (Portland¹s largest weekly) ahead of indie favorites The Decemberists and Sleater-Kinney, and rated Top 50 of 2006 by the UK's Blues Matters magazine.
In August 2007, Hillstomp released their first Live CD, After Two But Before Five, capturing the high-octane energy of their live performances. Hillstomp has wowed crowds at the Open House Blues Festival in Belfast and the Spitz Festival of Blues in London and has toured in Italy, Ireland, The Netherlands and Belgium.
The band continues touring non-stop in the United States where they've developed fan bases in cities up and down the West coast, performing as far east as Detroit. Along the way, they've shared bills with the Avett Brothers, The Devil Makes Three, Blitzen Trapper, Southern Culture on the Skids, Scott Biram, Lucero, Bob Log III and O¹Death, to name a few. They've also showcased their act on local radio shows including Oregon Public Broadcasting¹s LiveWire, and at festivals across the country.
