Straight-shooting stringband The Bucking Mules deliver
American old-time music at its pure and joyous
best. Smoke Behind the Clouds features 17 mostly
traditional songs treated with the Mules’ characteristic
throw-down groove. The band cut their teeth
in Tennessee, North Carolina, and Virginia through
extensive time spent with old 78s and elder master
musicians from the region. The result is a group of
well-studied musicians who know how to bust down
on a fiddle tune, belt an old song, and move square
dancers. On Smoke Behind the Clouds, the Mules
traverse the traditional musical landscape of the
Cumberland Plateau, the Tennessee River, the Blue
Ridge, and beyond. Favoring spirit and simplicity
over pretense, Smoke Behind the Clouds distills a
reverence of the past into a driving, heartfelt record
tailored for contemporary fans of folk, old time, bluegrass,
and more.
