“What would you give for a leader with soul?” the five piece Southern Tenant Folk Union ask on their recently released EP, which acts as a taster for the upcoming album “Join Forces”. They’ve made a collection of stirring and questioning political songs – and they’re now taking them out for the approval of the nation. It’s the sound of the times – disaffected but wryly witty. Vote with your feet and get along to any one of their dates through September and October and into November – the reward you’ll get is a driving blend of bluegrass and folk, with powerful and uplifting playing.
