About The Dead South & their new album Sugar & Joy:
A rock band without a drummer, a bluegrass band without a fiddle. To the gentleman of The Dead South, a self-styled 4-piece string band from Regina, Saskatchewan, it's about how, not what, you play. The Dead South's combination of cello, mandolin, guitar and banjo has all the hallmarks of a group tuned to bygone times, but The Dead South find distinctly modern bathos in this old time rigging.

On their third album, Sugar & Joy, The Dead South tell stories of desperation and bad decisions in fast-paced, brightly laced bursts. The title, Sugar & Joy, was selected in the band's style of pulling a lyric from their self-identified "weirdest song on the record" (in this case the Gashlycrumb goth of "Fat Little Killer Boy").

Sugar & Joy is the band's first album written and recorded outside Regina. Produced by FAME Studio-trained Jimmy Nutt, a longtime member of the Muscle Shoals music scene who recent credits include a Grammy for his work on The Steeldrivers, Sugar & Joy is The Dead South's tightest, weirdest and most exciting studio work yet.

The Dead South's original and current lineup includes the gnarled baritone of Nate Hilts, Scott Pringle on mandolin, whistling cellist Danny Kenyon and virtuosic banjo player Colton Crawford. The four-piece, string-driven approach puts the interplay of unique and versatile voices front and centre, with Hilts, Pringle and Kenyon all sharing lead vocal duties.

Lyrics:
Basically we are all alone in the centre of a pickaxe mine
Black lung stings as the pickaxe swings
As the void of the mine closes in
The Devil Came and the Angels sang
A Song of the Holy Ghost
Tempted the soul from the pennies to the gold
Like the dust I spit from my mouth

Chorus: Wooo oooo ooo o o o o o o o o o o o o o o

Remember the night with the barroom fight
Where I killed all of my best friends
We gambled it away with the whiskey open keg
And we never saw it again
Well I had a wife that I met back in high school
Her name was LylaJean
We saved away to escape some place
On a local miner’s minor pay

Chorus

We saved so long the fall came and gone
At Least 27 times
It fell through the floorboards into deep dark darkness
And we never saw it again
West Virginia’s home and that’s where we’re staying
To the blade of the Bible hymn
Jesus says we’re wicked so we just keep on pickin’
At the scab of the open mine
