From the first chords of the slide guitars, "Howlin" delivers the unmistakable sound of Delta Moon. This award-winning band has its own instantly recognizable style: swampy, southern-soaked, delta-billy roots music with an Americana soul feeling. After two changes in 2005 -- Kristin Markiton joining as vocalist and Phil Skipper plugging in on bass -- Delta Moon has honed its groove and come together as a tight unit. The band"s focus and confidence show in the 9 original tracks and 2 well-chosen covers on "Howlin"."
