AXS just posted their “10 Americanafest Performances That Blew Our Minds” piece and they very kindly included the guys Friday night showcase performance at 3rd & Lindsley as one of ’em. Here’s what they said:
“Howlin’ Brothers Bring The Party (headline) – When The Howlin’ Brothers take the stage you might be forgiven to think ‘oh great, here comes another bunch of bearded guys with banjos trying to be Mumford & Sons.’ You’d also know how wrong you were from the first notes of their performance. Sounding like what would happen if a bunch of Appalachian punk rockers formed a jug-band, The Howlin’ Brothers play with a ferocious energy that drags you in and finds you boogieing along in spite of yourself.”
