The impressive lineup consists of legendary  mandolin players Sam Bush, pedal steel innovator Russ Pahl, world famous electric guitar picker Guthrie Trapp, bass veteran Steve Mackey, cello virtuoso Nat  Smith, and the groove of percussionist Josh Day. Combine that ensemble with Oates' warm and personal storytelling, and you have a one-of-a-kind experience that is authentic and unforgettable. The project  originally began as a tribute to Oates'  idol, Mississippi John Hurt . It evolved organically, during a series of Nashville recording sessions, into a unique, retrospective collection drawing from a wide range of Oates' musical influences. Asked about the style and sound of Arkansas, he say's , 'It's like Dixieland dipped in bluegrass and salted with Delta blues.' The title track is propelled by a driving production that frames evocative images of the mist rising off  the mighty Mississippi River and the expansiveness of the cotton fields in America's heartland. With the essence of roots music at its core, vintage and modern recording techniques are woven throughout the album. With this incredible band, Oates shines a light on popular songs from America's past long before the birth of rock 'n' roll.\u003cp\u003eAnytime\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eArkansas\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eMy Creole Belle\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003ePallet Soft and Low\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eMiss the Mississippi and You\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eStack O Lee\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThat'll Never Happen No More\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eDig Back Deep\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eLord Send Me\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eSpike Driver Blues\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Chalkys.com","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":55152604086657,"sku":"732143","price":13.48,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0056\/8043\/1219\/files\/411K8ODfwKL._SL1500.jpg?v=1767876483","url":"https:\/\/chalkys.com\/products\/732143","provider":"Chalkys.com","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
