The Brass Kings

Washboard Rope Guitar

2008-05-26

This Minneapolis trio features a simple lineup and an energetic show that will appeal to fans of the Tarbox Ramblers, Mulebone, and Devil in a Woodpile. Percussive instruments include a washboard, a rope, tambourine, fridge door and hand drum. The sound is rounded out with washtub bass and acoustic and resonator guitars. –Pete
