Here is something to look forward to - a CD due out in about a month by a band called
Black Dub. The members are
Daniel Lanois (guitarist and producer
extrordinaire), Brian Blade & Daryle Johnson (who play drums and bass respectively here and, among many other places, on Emmy Lou Harris's classic
Spyboy), and
Trixie Whitely (daughter of the late, lamented
Chris Whitely and possessor of a wicked good voice). I've only heard some teasers on line, but will track the disc down once it actually appears. With this cast of characters it is difficult to imagine this one not being a keeper.
