Larkin Poe Is Helping Keep the Blues Alive
Larkin Poe's Rebecca and Megan Lovell are helping keep the blues alive on their new album Bloom. Listen to their Behind the Setlist podcast interview.
The sisters have succeeded in honoring the histories of some great American musical genres without being afraid to finding their own approach to a familiar sound. Over the years, the Lovell sisters, who began Larkin Poe in 2010, incorporated beats to their music and occasionally changed the lyric of a cover song. “And I do have to shout out Son House and Skip James, those two artists specifically as really capturing our imagination for turn of the century blues and showing us the possibility of a human voice and an acoustic or electric guitar.”
