Upon first listen of the War and Treaty’s music, the instant feeling of being taken to a southern church overcame my soul. The gosepl of married couple Michael and Tanya Trotter atones their listeners with a warm soulful feeling of an authentic tent revival service south of the Mason-Dixon line. NPR is streaming their full length album, “Healing Tide,” and are slated to hit the road at Pickathon in Oregon tomorrow and a visit to Denver on the 8th at Globe Hall. Did we mention that Emmylou Harris appears on their new album scheduled for release August 10. We die.
