   About Doctor Oakroot

Doctor Oakroot was born in a taxi with no brakes, and, he says, "I been rolling ever since. I rolled right down to Hell, pulled up the devil by his tail and brought back some dark, dark songs."

Unsatisfied with the ordinary, Oakroot's been making his own music on his own homemade instruments ever since he was a kid. Mostly string instruments, and, recently, mostly cigar box guitars. When you get it down to a box a stick and a string, you have music with a rough edge that works at a primal level - nowhere to hide - and anything but ordinary.

Rough-edged songs from a dark place in the soul - songs to haunt your dreams.


Esperanto

"Malglatajn kantojn per kapricaj hejmkonstruitaj gitaroj"

Doctor Oakroot (doctoro kverkradiko) naskighis en taksio nebremse, kaj li diras, "mi rulighis de tiam. Mi rulighis rekte al la inferno, levigis la diablo per la vosto, kaj reportis iom da mallumegaj kantoj."

Nekontenta pri ordinarajhoj, Oakroot verkis musikon kun gitaroj memkonstruitaj de cigarskatoloj. Kiam oni ludas kun skatolo, bastono, kaj kordo, oni ne povas kashighi kaj la musiko estas neordinara.

Okaze, Oakroot kantas kaj registras Esperante.

lprs037 - Frogwomen & alexander de large - 66.
6


Frogwomen’s last album is just water under the bridge
and only the disrespectful de large could encourage him to create a new one… it is a one-song record which symbolically
lasts 66.
6
minutes.
Satan worshipping and overused topic in pop music is just the straw that allowed the struggle between the two artists to
begin: a patchwork of microsongs in which each one of them tries to annihilate the other’s style, a record that ranges
between love ditties, doom-noise cants, and irreverent & wild tarantellas (ehm.... maybe i’m overstating now). .
