Event Description
From the salvaged sounds of American juke joints, back porches,
honky tonks and rock clubs, The Suitcase Junket conjures an
entirely new sound in this essential rock collection, Pile Driver.
The Suitcase Junket is Matt Lorenz: artist,
tinkerer, swamp yankee, one-man band. His is the road-worn voice rising
over the grind of a tube-amped dumpster guitar, with wild double pitches of
throat singing. From The Suitcase Junket's penchant for thrift and
ingenuity comes this full-length album -- his debut at Signature Sounds -- of original
rock anthems, mountain ballads, blues manifestos and dance-hall festivity,
played on instruments built of broken bottles, twisted forks, dried bones, gas
cans, shoes, saw blades, a toy keyboard, and an overhead compartment’s worth of
luggage.
