Sounds Like
Twilit carny rock, raucous Americana stomp, road-weary heartland blooze, and dreamy lounge rock sung in growling, crooning baritone and gritty, soulful tenor backed by a semi-acoustic ensemble that includes punchy Les Pauls, fingerstyle acoustic and vintage resonator slide guitars, acoustic fretless bass, & drum kit w/ the occasional baritone guitar, jingle of the tambo, rattle of the vibraslap, and junkyard percussion.
Nestled between progressive indie and modern americana, The Resurrectionists are an eclectic 4-piece rock outfit comprised of a woodsman, a writer, an educator, and a scientist. Wry and restless, our songs chart a twilit course through family and faith, booze and the blues. We invite you to peep our website at www.theresurrectionists.com for all the latest.
Our debut CD is now available.

Thanks for addin' us, ya moniker-stealin', caw-handed brigands. We still "dig" ya. Ha! Get it? Ah, it's funny 'cause it's true...
For more on us and the blockbuster new screenplay about us, visit our myspace page...but steal from us no more, ya blackguards, it ain't a moral thing to do.
Thank you for listening! Your music is a pleasure to listen to as well. I hope to see you in the near future. (I will be in CT the date you're playing with the Devil Makes Three in Cambridge! Damn!)
I couldn't agree more! We definitely should later this summer. I'm going to write down your Middle East gig on my calendar - I should be able to get out there that day. You guys sound great! Keep in touch.
Boys, Great playing with you all last night. As I told a few of you, it was the bast I've heard. Good stuff. I wrote a short blog about the night on sandmachine.com if you get bored. Look forward to a next time. Dave
Absolutely will, and thanks for the support, we'd love to see you guys come out for a show. and there will be future events too. we just finished a rough cut of just over the first hour of the film (it'll end up being 2+hrs), so sometime in the summer/early fall we'll be doing another screening leading into festivals. it's always really cool to have other artists offer their support. independents supporting independents, that's what it's about- big love -e - keep us posted with up coming shows, i like your sound.
