About the artist

The Deslondes (formerly Sam Doores + Riley Downing & The Tumbleweeds) are a New Orleans-based country-soul, swamp-boogie band. They combine elements of early Stax, Sun and Atlantic records with the influence of a more raw, stripped-down sound gleaned off field recordings from Alan Lomax and Mississippi Records catalogue. In their writing as well as their lives, The Deslondes three principal songwriters—Sam Doores, Riley Downing and Cameron Snyder—endeavor to carry on the traveling country-troubadour tradition of their heroes Woody Guthrie
