He aha ka pili me ka hua'ōlelo "'āina"? No nā poʻe mele he nui, e hoʻoulu kēia lexeme i nā manaʻo no ke kani kīkā palupalu, kahi banjo a me nā mele aloha e pili ana i nā ʻāina mamao a me ke aloha ʻoiaʻiʻo.
Eia nō naʻe, i waena o nā hui mele hou, ʻaʻole nā mea a pau e hoʻāʻo e hana e like me nā "ʻano" o nā paionia, a he nui nā mea pena e hoʻāʻo nei e hana i nā lālā hou i kā lākou ʻano. ʻO kēia mau mea me ka hui The Dead South.
Ala hui i ka holomua
Ua hoʻokumu ʻia ka Dead South ma 2012 e ʻelua mau mea hoʻokani mele Kanada mai Regina, Nate Hilt a me Danny Kenyon. Ma mua o kēia, ua pāʻani nā lālā ʻelua o ka "quartet" i kahi hui grunge maikaʻi ʻole.
ʻO ka laina mua o The Dead South he ʻehā mau mea hoʻokani: Nate Hilt (vocals, guitar, mandolin), Scott Pringle (guitar, mandolin, vocals), Danny Kenyon (cello and vocals) a me Colton Crawford (banjo). Ma 2015, haʻalele ʻo Colton i ka hui no ʻekolu makahiki, akā ma hope ua hoʻoholo e hoʻi i ka laina i hoʻokumu ʻia.
Ua loaʻa i ka poʻe mele ko lākou kaulana mua ma nā hoʻokani ola i mua o ka lehulehu. Ua hoʻopaʻa ʻo Dead South i kā lākou mini-album mua ma 2013. Aia i loko o kāna papa mele mele ʻelima mau haku mele piha, i loaʻa i ka poʻe me ka pumehana.
I ka makahiki aʻe, ua hoʻoholo ka hui e hoʻopaʻa i kahi album lōʻihi ʻo Good Company, i hoʻokuʻu ʻia ma lalo o ka mana o ka inoa Kelemania Devil Duck Records.
Ua hoʻonui nui ka album i ka lehulehu o ka hui, a ua hala ʻo The Dead South ma kahi o ʻelua makahiki ma nā huakaʻi nui ma waho o ko lākou ʻāina ʻo Kanada.
ʻO ke alakaʻi hoʻokahi mai ka album ʻelua, In Hell I'll Be In Good Company, i loaʻa i kāna wikiō ponoʻī i ʻOkakopa 2016. ʻO ke wikiō, kahi e hula ai nā Kanaka ʻakaʻaka i nā pāpale a me nā mea hoʻomaha ma nā wahi like ʻole, ua loaʻa ma mua o 185 miliona mau manaʻo ma YouTube.
Ua hoʻololi ʻo Eliza Mary Doyle, kahi mea hoʻokani mele kaulana a me ka studio Kanada iā ia i ka wā o ka haʻalele ʻana o ka mea hoʻokani virtuoso banjo ʻo Crawford. ʻO ka hoʻi ʻana i ka haku mele ʻo Crawford ua ʻae ʻo Doyle e hāʻawi i ka manawa hou i ka hana solo.
Nā album ʻekolu a me ʻehā
ʻO ke album ʻo Illusion & Doubt ke kolu o ka ʻoihana o ka hui, a hoʻomaikaʻi iā ia i loaʻa ai ka lanakila nui. Ma hope o kona hoʻokuʻu ʻia ʻana i ka makahiki 2016, ua komo koke ka album i ka 5 kiʻekiʻe o ka pakuhi Billboard Bluegrass.
ʻAʻole i hoʻokipa maikaʻi ʻia ka premiere ʻaʻole wale e ka poʻe pā o ka hui, akā e nā mea hoʻokani mele pū kekahi, no ka laʻana, ua ʻōlelo ʻo Amanda Haters mai ka Canadian Beats ʻoiai ʻo ka album he leo ʻāina kuʻuna, ʻaʻole kēia e hoʻonele i ka hui i ka hiki ke hoʻonani. a me nā mele maʻamau.
ʻOi aku ka nui o nā loea mele i helu ʻia i nā mele Boots, Miss Mary a me Hard Day. Ma ka hope, e like me kā lākou, ua hiki i ke talena o ka mea leo mele Hilt ke hōʻike piha iā ia iho.
ʻAʻole ʻoluʻolu ka poʻe mele o ka hui i ka lehulehu me ka hoʻomaka ʻana o nā album - ʻo ka album ʻehā ʻo Sugar & Joy na The Dead South i hoʻokuʻu wale ʻia ma 2019, ʻekolu mau makahiki ma hope o ka hoʻokuʻu nui ʻana. ʻO ka mea mahalo, ua haku ʻia a hoʻopaʻa ʻia nā mele a pau ma ka album Sugar & Joy ma waho o ke kūlanakauhale hānau o ka poʻe mele, ʻaʻole hiki ke ʻōlelo ʻia no nā album mua.
ʻAno make Hema
Hiki iā ʻoe ke kamaʻilio pau ʻole e pili ana i ka wehewehe ʻana o ke ʻano o The Dead South - i kekahi mau haku mele mele maʻamau, ma kahi e hele ai ke kani i ka bluegrass, a ma kahi ʻē aʻe nā ʻano hana maʻamau o nā mele rock "garage".
ʻO nā mea hoʻokani pila e kamaʻilio me ka maopopo ʻole e pili ana i kā lākou hana - e like me kā lākou, hoʻokani ka hui i ke ʻano o ka blues-folk-rock me nā mea ʻāina.
Eia naʻe, ʻaʻole e ʻike ʻia ke ʻano o ka hui inā hoʻomau wale ʻia ma ke kī hoʻolohe. ʻO ka hiʻohiʻona no nā mea hoʻokani mele o The Dead South kahi mea nui o ke kiʻi.
Ma ke kahua a me nā kiʻi wikiō, makemake nā kāne e ʻike wale i nā pālule keʻokeʻo a me nā pālule ʻeleʻele me nā suspenders, a makemake nā mea pena i nā pāpale nani (ʻeleʻele ka hapa nui) e like me ke poʻo.
ʻO nā mele o The Dead South e hauʻoli i ka mea hoʻolohe me ka moʻolelo kiʻekiʻe - ke kamaʻilio nei mākou e pili ana i nā kumakaia a me nā mea aloha, a i ʻole ka poʻe pōā paʻakikī e kaʻana like i kona moʻolelo ola, a i ʻole kahi nani make e pana i ka mea nui me kahi revolver.
He mea hoihoi paha ia ʻano noʻonoʻo i ka mea hoʻolohe ʻōlelo Pelekania, a i ʻole ka mea aloha mele i hiki ke hopu i nā huaʻōlelo kamaʻāina pākahi i loko o nā kikokikona, akā ʻaʻole ia he manaʻo inā ʻōlelo ka mea hoʻolohe iā ʻoe me ka ʻōlelo Pelekania, a laila ʻo ia. ʻaʻohe mea e ʻimi ai i nā mele The Dead South.
ʻO kahi leo kiʻekiʻe, me nā neʻe mele wiwo ʻole a me nā leo ʻoluʻolu a Hilt, ʻaʻole ia e haʻalele i ka poʻe ʻike ʻole o nā mele haole.
ʻAʻole kaupalena nā lālā o The Dead South iā lākou iho i kā lākou hana ponoʻī, i kekahi manawa e hoʻomaikaʻi i nā mea mele kaulana o ka wā kahiko me nā ʻano uhi uhi kiʻekiʻe o kā lākou mau hana.
No laila, i ka makahiki 2016, ua hoʻokani ka hui i ka ballad folk imperishable o The Animals i kapa ʻia ʻo The House of the Rising Sun. Ua hoʻohui nā mea pena i ke kani o ka mea kākau i ke mele, a ʻo ka haku mele "hoʻokani me nā kala hou." Ua loaʻa ka wikiō ma luna o 9 miliona mau manaʻo ma YouTube.
ʻO ka Hema Hema ʻo ia ka ʻāina ʻaʻole hiki ke kapa ʻia he ʻano maʻamau, ʻoiai ʻo ia ka mea i hana ʻia me ka noʻonoʻo ʻana i ka "kumu".
ʻO kekahi manawa pōʻeleʻele, i kekahi manawa hoʻohenehene a me ka hauʻoli puʻuwai - ʻo nā mele o kēia hui e hoʻokomo mau i ka mea hoʻolohe i kahi lewa kūʻokoʻa a hana i kahi ʻano kūikawā.
