Review

Entertainment Weekly (p.69) - "Their latest has more of a juke-joint feel: Songwriting and arrangements are livelier, with more action from the quintet's fine male voices..."
No Depression (p.121) - "[T]he harmonies on RIVERSIDE BATTLE SONGS range from somewhat adventurous dissonances on 'Down By The Riverside' to the raw, open-throated primal gospel projection of 'Gone Today'."

Title Note

Ollabelle: Fiona McBain (vocals, guitar, acoustic guitar); Byron Isaacs (vocals, dobro, bass guitar); Amy Helm (vocals, mandola); Glenn Patscha (vocals, accordion, keyboards); Tony Leone (vocals, drums, percussion); Larry Campbell (guitar, acoustic guitar, lap steel guitar, pedal steel guitar, banjo, cittern, fiddle).

The follow-up to Ollabelle's 2004 debut steps up the New York City-based sextet's distinctive brand of Americana. With a respectable musical pedigree (all members are accomplished musicians and singer Amy Helm is the daughter of the Band's Levon Helm), Ollabelle mixes folk, country, bluegrass, blues, and gospel to fresh, appealing effect.

As well-executed as its predecessor, RIVERSIDE BATTLE SONGS is, if anything, more assured. The band mixes traditional songs with original compositions, and it is especially notable how the two blend seamlessly. Lush male-female harmonies are the focus of RIVERSIDE, but all the instrumentation and arrangements are chosen with care, resulting in an album that feels deliberately old-world yet decidedly contemporary.
