biographical info
Kacy & Clayton carry on a deep tradition with their music. Their sound is greatly influenced by the raw, simplicities of roots music. After going through a hard-cover Alan Lomax encyclopedia, and a stack of records, Kacy & Clayton recorded their self-titled debut in just two days, in March of 2011. The album was released on the newly formed, Dahl Street Records, on June 1st2011. The honest, and unrefined sound of the release is somewhat reflective of the Wood Mountain Hills in Southern Saskatchewan, from which they hail. Kacy & Clayton are The Deep Dark Woods, Shirley Collins and Davy Graham,Leadbelly and Mississippi John Hurt.
