The Pine Hill Haints play a style of country music that predates the term country, and although it's essentially 1920s vintage, the sound predates recordings. The band consists of guitar, washtub bass, snare drum, washboard, and a bowed saw. Some mp3's of their music can be linked to below

The Can Kickers don't regurgitate old-time music. They take it, swallow it, and spit out something all their own. They have uptempos and independent spirit belonging to punk, while the rest of it belongs to the songs of old Appalachia where they are from. Mp3's of their music are available at these links

These guys are can-kickin' yee-ha'in fantastic.

Saw them in Fred Zeppelin's in Cork last time they were here, quite by accident, so I'd love to know more about when/where they'll be playing in Dublin.

The guy playing the washtub was my favourite bit...

Anything old-timey with Banjos and fiddles always catches my fancy .|..|
