COUNTRY FOLK AMERICANA
No cover!

Miss Lana Rebel has been called “the badass matriarch of local dustbowl country.” It’s an appreciative nod to a songwriter whose presence can cut through the din of a crowded honky-tonk, and a voice that has been likened to ladies such as Loretta Lynn, and June Carter. But it’s her stripped-down format and a less brassy vocal style that gives her recordings and performances that warm-fuzzy feeling, and for some, an addictive quality.

For the last few years, Lana has been collaborating with Kevin Mayfield who originally played the Wurlitzer organ in Lana’s group, The Broken Promises. His contributions have added even more character and depth to her material, and his songs have comfortably co-mingled with hers in their charming two-piece act.

Lana and Kevin currently reside in Tucson, Arizona. They can be found weekly at La Cocina, where they have been mind melding, and honing in a stark and beautiful sound. That sound will finally be captured on vinyl when they record Lana’s fifth album in early 2015 for FPE records, a diverse Chicago-based label.
