Charlie Gillett's guest this week is CW Stoneking, a 34-year old Australian
whose voice and music suggest the soundworld of America's Deep South in the
first half of the 20th-century; a performer described by The Observer's Killian Fox
as "listening to an old 78 recovered from a dusty attic in New Orleans".
Recorded just before his appearance at the Barbican's Folk America show last month
(curated by Seasick Steve), CW dropped in on the BBC Maida Vale studios with his
brass-oriented backing band the Primitive Horn Orchestra to play four songs and
to chat about his influences which include Blind Willie McTell, Rev. Charles White,
Rev. Kelsey and the Mills Brothers.
