The Scrimshanders are from Boston, MA - but you'd think they're from Indiana or somewhere. "Longneck" is the debut album featuring 13 originals written from 1998-2000. Strong songs set against a lush backdrop of pedal steel, organ, and guitars. The record was recorded in the summer of 2000 by David Minehan at Wooly Mammoth Studios. It was released in January of 2001.
Thanks for reviewing this album! You should see it show up on the album page in a few days.
Scrimshanders is like a familiar face in the crowd. And every new face that is immediately so familiar, one easily falls in love with. At least I do. John Magee's sexy voice, singing desperately seeking, longing, kind of lyrics in a definately country atmosphere, really gets me hooked. If you like Son Volt, Farmer not so John or Whiskeytown to name a few great ones I easily dare to compare Scrimshanders with, you want this cd too. Read more...
