The impressive lineup consists of legendary mandolin players Sam Bush, pedal steel innovator Russ Pahl, world famous electric guitar picker Guthrie Trapp, bass veteran Steve Mackey, cello virtuoso Nat Smith, and the groove of percussionist Josh Day. Combine that ensemble with Oates’ warm and personal storytelling, and you have a one-of-a-kind experience that is authentic and unforgettable. The project originally began as a tribute to Oates’ idol, Mississippi John Hurt . It evolved organically, during a series of Nashville recording sessions, into a unique, retrospective collection drawing from a wide range of Oates’ musical influences. Asked about the style and sound of Arkansas, he say’s , “It’s like Dixieland dipped in bluegrass and salted with Delta blues.” The title track is propelled by a driving production that frames evocative images of the mist rising off the mighty Mississippi River and the expansiveness of the cotton fields in America’s heartland. With the essence of roots music at its core, vintage and modern recording techniques are woven throughout the album. With this incredible band, Oates shines a light on popular songs from America’s past long before the birth of rock ‘n’ roll. John Oates – (of famed Hall & Oates) makes a record he always wanted – “Arkansas” is the title track of Oates’ upcoming Americana record. In his third act, he has become something of a statesman for Americana music, setting up home in Nashville, Tenn. He’s spent most of the last decade diving into roots music through Nashville’s robust music scene and through explorations of the South. Oates says the inspiration for “Arkansas” came from one such exploration to the historic town of Wilson Fresh interpretations include the Emmett Miller classic “Anytime” from 1924 as well as the classic Jimmie Rodgers tune “Miss the Mississippi and You” from 1932. Reimagined traditional Delta, country blues and ragtime selections salute legendary artists like Mississippi John Hurt and Blind Blake. Two new original songs by Oates blend seamlessly with the traditional roots material.
