THE ROOTS REVIVALISTS
With a career now spanning close to a half-century, Ronnie Hawkins (whose early group The Hawks evolved – without him – into The Band) was a pioneer importer of southern-fried, countrified rock. After almost 20 years together, Blue Rodeo continues to nourish those roots and put down new ones incorporating airy folk harmonies and down-to-earth melodies. Not only have they brought new life to country rock, they’ve exported it back to the States. May the circle be unbroken.
