Synopsis

Album Description

CMH Records presents their latest tribute to this unique band. Top bluegrass musicians tackle the Strokes? music with keen intensity. Banjo, dobro, fiddle, and mandolin replace the chiming electric guitars and pounding drums of the original tracks. "New York City Cops," "Last Nite," and "Hard to Explain" are transformed from modern rock nuggets to old-time Appalachian gold while maintaining their dynamic melodic heart and attitude.

CD Reviews

Everything I Could Want

E. M. Gorodetsky | Syracuse, NY | 06/22/2006

(5 out of 5 stars)

"I've never been into Bluegrass music. But after hearing this, Julian Casablancas' melodies being accurately transformed into bluegrass, I must admit this is quite the treat. The Strokes have stated that the music comes before the lyrics for them and this CD demonstrates all of the work behind it.

I highly recommend this CD to any fan of The Strokes. It instills in me the same emotions I feel when listening to The Strokes."
