A Canadian folk-bluegrass musical ensemble from Regina, Saskatchewan, *The Dead South* sings about murderous, estranged spouses and runaway lover cousins in a boot-stomping acoustic configuration. Their unique take on the Bluegrass genre includes banjo, mandolin, cello, guitar, whistles, hoots and hollerin’, and finger snappin’. The band was formed in 2012 when Nate and Danny decided to put their own spin on tradition after being inspired by artists like Trampled By Turtles and Old Crow Medicine Show. Colton and Scott joined later on, adding more bodies to the group. Despite not having any clue what they were doing at first, they managed to create fun yet serious music with impressive musicianship.

The Dead South grow more adventurous and assured with each new album. For their fourth full-length record, they brought producer Jimmy Nutt to Mexico City, where they recorded 13 songs full of plot twists, family trees, grudges, insurance scams, bacon, burials, banjo riffs and more. The Dead South flawlessly execute banjo rolls and lightning fast mandolin tremolos, 3-part harmonies and songs of classic themes -murder ballads, disloyalty, ghosts and the like, with a wink and a smile. Where Bluegrass meets Bach meets Billy Talent, for fans of Frank Sinatra and Tool alike, you’ll find The Dead South’s Chains &amp; Stakes. Chains and Stakes is truly a “Dead South” collection in the balance of darkness and levity that has come to define their unmistakable style.
