Nothing is perhaps more poignantly America than it’s root in Americana music. From Woody Guthrie‘s, This Land is Your Land, to famed stories and recounts of historical events like the hanging of Tom Dula (pronounced Dooley) in North Carolina, full of regional flavor, offering a look back into America’s closet of unsolved mysteries. From one end of this great country to the other, our folk songs still reign in preserving our culture, history and travel in America.
In celebration of these historical songs, Neil Young, one of the most influential musicians of his generation, has released a new CD with his band Crazy Horse, titled, Americana. The CD was released June 5, 2012 and in support of this, Young is sponsoring a Cover An Americana Song Contest jointly through an online agency, www.Talenthouse.com, where artists may cover and submit their choice of any of the songs on Young’s Americana.
