SWAMP CABBAGE
Walter Parks, long-time guitarist/sideman for Woodstock legend Richie Havens reunites with the original Swamp Cabbage cast – Matt Lindsey on bass and Jagoda on drums. A old-school deep-south trio that reformed in the Covid after Lindsey had a heart transplant, Jagoda drummed for a Utah Roller Derby and Parks electrified hymns, hollers, work songs and reels from Georgia's Okefinokee Swamp which earned him an invite to be archived into the Library of Congress.
“Swamp Cabbage … sounds like a southern rock band but "thinks" like a jazz, blues or classical trio. Harmonically, their sound is more complex than the blues. Rhythmically it's akin to New Orleans jazz. Lyrically, they offer a comedic travelogue through Park's North Florida upbringing, all complimented by his electric guitar style -- a mélange of Scott Joplin's ragtime and Jerry Reed's bayou pickin.” -Editorial Review Amazon
