GOOSE CREEK SYMPHONY (Goose Creek, KY)
http://www.goosecreeksymphony.com/

"While Jeff Tweedy and Jay Farrar were scampering around in Pampers and playing with wooden blocks, Charles Gearheart and the Goose were fusing country and rock sounds like nobody else, plumbing the depths of hillbilly, folk, bluegrass and rock music almost two decades before any of that "No Depression" stuff became tres chic. Goose Creek's unique country-rock hybrid had an earthier, more organic sound than just about anything coming out of Nashville circa 1971-1974." - Blurt Magazine

"Bob Dylan, The Band, The Grateful Dead, and others began to play rock and roll with a country heart. Goose Creek Symphony were one of the original bands that were part of this mix. Their music combined a rural sensibility with rocking rhythms that tended to meander like a babbling brook flowing through shady woods. We call this jam band music today but back then it was just getting your groove on." - PopMatters

"The Goose Creek story brings new meaning to "you were ahead of your time". Unlike many of the other bands from the 70s, Goose Creek hasn't mellowed or gotten commercial. They aren't resting on old laurels, if anything they've gotten looser and more varied. They found most of their old audience as well as many new fans." - Jambase

"From the classic rock echoes that hang heavy like the reefer smoke in the rafters of Detroit's Cobo Hall, to the soul reflected in the alleys and small faces of London's Heavy Load scene to the exile off Main Street, few bands channel the sonic groove generated at the headwaters of our rock and roll DNA like Deadstring Brothers." - Bio
