LaFarge, Pokey: Something In The Water

Pokey LaFarge Something In The Water  He makes original Midwestern music.  With one foot deep in the heart of the American musical tradition and the other firmly planted in the present, he continually challenges the notion that tradition-bearers fail to push musical boundaries.  An eclectic writer and performer, he incorporates elements of early Jazz, Ragtime, Country Blues, Western Swing and beyond, transcending the confines of genre to present a sound very much his own.
