The Local Honeys - The Gospel (Brown LP Vinyl)

As the title clearly states, the follow-up to their 2015 debut, Little Girls Actin’ Like Men, find Kentucky duo The Local Honeys featuring Montana Hobbs and Linda Jean Stokley (augmented by fiddle player Megan Gregory) digging into the spiritual tradition of the Appalachians. The album features a dozen gospel songs, some well-worn with age, others little used and at least one that will be better known outside gospel circles, although the only actual traditional number is Amazing Grace, here recorded live in the traditional Appalachia, a capella style of lining out, essentially a call and response, with a congregation of friends and family at Meadowgreen Appalachian Music Park.
