Pablo Atlas
When people talk about "roots music" they're often talking about what we call folk music or, in the instance of Pablo Atlas, folk rock. These are ordinary tales writ large with a musical backing that's easily recognizable from the best in this tradition. Pablo Atlas hails from Greenville, SC.

The Pinkerton Raid
The Pinkerton Raid crafts “a fine blend of Beatles-esque dreamy folk,” says AMERICANA
HIGHWAYS. “There’s glorious spirit to it.…thoroughly alive and refreshing.” It’s all quite
beatnik and granola, steeped in the mysticism of STAR WARS, the existentialism of Kerouac, the naturalism of THE LORD OF THE RINGS, Standing Rock and Laurel Canyon, and the liberation politics of Woody Guthrie and John Lennon. There is a fair number of songs about trees.
