Driftless Dreamers: In Cuca Country

by Various Artists

supported by

pwerdmann A superb compilation- it will take you back in time like a trip through the Driftless- you can almost feel the trees, valleys, creeks, bluffs, and honky tonks down in the holler. And, of course, you will hear the birds singing.
Favorite track: There's A River.

about

Home to Cuca Records and hundreds of Nashville-fantasizing pluckers and singers, Wisconsin’s Driftless region was a hotbed of country music in the 1960s. Influenced by old-timey ethnic songs, Bakersfield outlaws, countrypolitan rainbows, and the lonesome twang of every rural route roadhouse, these 17 Driftless Dreamers washed up at Jim Kirchstein’s Sauk City record plant with little more than $100 and a longing. Collected here are the fruits of Cuca’s documentary approach to record making, capturing the voices and stories of a culture and glacier in abatement.
