WALK is country, folk, bluegrass, blues, gospel and hip-hop. Different, gospel-flavored, yearning and mournful

Review from the Biloxi-Gulfport South Miss Sun Herald'WALK' Red Rooster (Wondermore Records)This September CD is truly different than most we’ve heard lately.

Other members include Susannah Hornsby (vocals/accordion), Andrew Green (banjo), Dave Gould (sax), Brandon…See More

Jay & Nat formed Red Rooster in NY ten years ago and on this record they have brought together a diverse group of musicians and instruments to compliment some stellar song writing. The…See More

Reggae Sauce That Caresses the Ears!just got a new review in from the Netherlands:http://www.altcountryforum.nl/2009/09/13/red-rooster-walk/here is what our translation team came up with (thanks Will "Ginger Beer" Fadrhonc!):You can always wake me when a band makes a cd and they realize a sound that mixes folk, country, bluegrass, reggae, and jazz. This is not a traditional sounding band, this is Red Rooster founded in 1998 in New York. On their new CD "Walk" they do not shy away from such…See More
