Bohannons - Unaka Rising

The Bohannons inhabit a musical universe that, while certainly drawing influence from all over, is firmly rooted in their Tennessee home. With Unaka Rising, they are clearly taking their homegrown, handcrafted rock to a new level, and we think they’ve set the bar pretty damn high with this one. The album’s title references the Unaka province of East Tennessee and western North Carolina— “One of the finest areas in all the world,” according to singer/guitarist Marty Bohannon. The region has certainly fueled the Bohannon’s fire, providing endless stories and situations from which these songs draw. With a quiver of new material ready to follow up 2011’s stellar EP, Days of Echo, the Bohannons spent the better part of the last year tearing up the road between Chattanooga and Athens, GA where they recorded Unaka Rising at Chase Park Transduction, first with David Barbe and later Drew Vandenberg.

Press for Unaka Rising
"Are they Country? Are They Blues? Are they 70's glam metal? Yes." -- Bryan Childs - Nine Bullets

"The Bo’s are coming for you and there is nothing you can do about it. The mix political angst and fearful anger inject the release with an immediacy that is rare." -- Wess Floyd - Mod Mobilian

"To profit from the album it must be played loud. Preferably up to pain threshold. And then I shit as usual in the warnings from the Health Directorate." -- Roald Hansen - Firdaposten.no (Norway)
