  1. Following up on their critically acclaimed first album Kings County, this new album finds the band serving up a similar roots stew, even more heavily weighted toward street-beats and dance rhythms. The front line’s collective improvising and conversational rhythmic approach brings to mind  both modern jazz and roots music, two styles that have more in common than one might think.  Way North’s sound fits the vibe at folk house concerts and jazz festivals – something few bands can say.
