Spinning Vinyl at the Exotic Desert Hideaway Bar Born in the mythical land of Hollywood, Pearl Charles was raised on American folk music. Though she did for a time immerse herself in the world of American primitivism - The Carter Family, Smithsonian Folkways and Alan Lomax’ archival recordings of the American South - having grown up in Los Angeles, the folk culture she personally encountered was that of her hometown. She developed her own cosmic brew from the influences around her - Disco, Country, Yacht Rock, Funk and all of the folk musics of the post-urban migration of mid-20th century America. Weaving these influences together like a seamstress for the band, she offers up her own addition to the great patchwork quilt of American music. She creates her own unique brand of modern American folk music and reframes retro-fetishism as a futurist vision. Her latest musical offering springs up from this fertile desert ground as a more refined distillation of her Country Disco signature sound that she introduced to the world on her previous record Magic Mirror.
