Mike Seeger Artist Snapshot:

Once described by Bob Dylan as having old-time music "in his genetic makeup," Mike Seeger is among the most important figures in the genre born after 1930. Born to musicological parents, Mike Seeger excels at banjo, autoharp, dulcimer, guitarist, and fiddle and, from a young age, became the undeniable instrumentalist in a folk family that also included his siblings, Pete and Peggy Seeger. In 1958, Seeger formed the New Lost City Ramblers with Tom Paley and John Cohen. The preeminent string band of the folk revival, the New Lost City Ramblers revived not only the sound of old-time musicians, but their unpolished, raucous spirit as well. Seeger dabbled with bluegrass throughout his career and joined the Strange Creek Singers featuring Hazel Dickens and Alice Gerrard from 1968 to 1970. As a solo artist, Seeger has released countless, exhaustively authentic albums in which he approaches many forms of pre-war acoustic music as a student, professor, and virtuoso.

Dirty Linen (p.55) - "Seeger not only offers up a wide selection of sounds via the tunes, but he also plays them on a generous sampling of vintage guitars..."

Title Note

Audio Mixers: Mike Seeger; Peter Reiniger.

Mike Seeger discs were never just about listening--as every one included detailed liner notes describing the playing techniques, tunings, histories, and where and how he learned each track. The overall effect for the listener was that they could be as educated a student of musical history as he was. EARLY SOUTHERN GUITAR SOUNDS is no different a project, and Seeger focuses his unsurpassed picking chops and professorial eye on the myriad guitar techniques to emerge from the South between the Civil War and the Great Depression. This collection is ideal for anyone curious about the era as Seeger reveals all the tricks of the trade with his effortlessly perfect playing and approach.
