Bringing our Trash Blues down South. Free Entry!Carley's Wreck and Ruin, a British blues duo with a dark, unmistakable edge. Primitive and raw - Blues Trash from the underworld!
Blending gritty blues with trashy roots, their influences range from 1930’s Delta Blues, through to the gospel fire of Sister Rosetta Tharpe, the occult style of Black Sabbath, the theatrics of Screamin’ Jay Hawkins, the witchy glamour of Stevie Nicks, the spiritual side of Robert Plant, the Rock n Roll splendour of Wanda Jackson, the Mandolin of Bill Monroe and the guitars of Rockabilly and Punk all blended together with the constant echoes of old-timey Country and British Folk that creep in through the cracks into the speakers.
The music is the stripped-back, beat-up brainchild of Jo Carley (vocals, mandolin, washboard, percussion, keys) and Tim Carley (battered archtop guitar, rattlin' shoe, kick drum, distorted vintage amps, backing vocals). Together, they’ve forged what they call “trashy roots on junkyard instruments — raw, rhythmic, and possessed by something older than rock ’n’ roll itself.”
