专辑简介

One listener said "...The Mosstins sound like the sweet fragerance of fresh baked bread right out of the oven."

Marc Moss, from West Virginia and Ency Austin from the Catskill Mountains, join together as singers and multi-instrumentalists, performing Robert Johnson to Ollabelle Reed, Bill Monroe to Dolly Parton and more. "Hardscrabble" is the life these musicians lived while creating what would become some of the most cherished songs of the day. This album is a tip of the hat to these early musicians who sang songs of love, heartbreak, strife and happiness. In "Hardscrabble", The Mosstins carry-on what they call the "black and white blues" tradition.
