Jimbo Mathus (@JimboMathus): Clinging to the Roots at the Levitt Shell (@LevittShell)

Jimbo Mathus and the Tri-State Coalition, kicking off the Levitt Shell season at Overton Park on May 14, 2011 with a set of songs from his upcoming new album “Confederate Buddah” on Memphis International Records, out May 24. The crowd particularly enjoyed the eerily-prophetic “Cling to the Roots and You Won’t Wash Away” and “Too Much Water Under The Bridge”, which were both written more than a year BEFORE the Memphis flood!
