SUMMARY:Lincoln Durham
DESCRIPTION:Armed with old bastardized mid-century guitars\, hand-me-down fiddles and banjos\, home-made contraptions with just enough tension on a string to be considered an instrument and any random percussive item he can get his hands or feet on\, Lincoln Durham is a roots-rock revivalist with a heavy amped edge\, preaching the gospel of some new kind of depraved music. With driving guttural beats back-boning various growling stringed instruments Lincoln gives birth to a sound that transcends genres with his dark\, poetic and raw writing style telling tales that E.A. Poe would have been proud of.
