GYASI to Release New Deep-Blues Single Man From The Mountain

GYASI is set to release a new single titled Man From The Mountain, a track described as deep blues, according to a press release announcing the upcoming drop.

Gyasi does something unexpected with his new album Songs from the Holler - he trades his signature high-voltage rock 'n' roll for the humble sounds of home. Born and raised in the rugged hills of a West Virginia holler, Gyasi returns to his roots and the solitary mountains of his youth, celebrating the music he first encountered as a child by recording a vibrant folk-blues album. Nearly captured in the wild with just two microphones, the songs on Songs From The Holler feel authentic and heartfelt. The album blends familiar blues classics and forgotten gems from the likes of Robert Johnson, Blind Blake, Lightnin' Hopkins, Leroy Carr and others, along with four original tracks, highlighting Gyasi's tasteful guitar work and his genuine connection to this music. Songs from the Holler is an artful oddity whose sounds will carry you back to a world long past.

Gyasi's new blues single 'Man from the Mountain' is out digitally now via Alive Naturalsound Records. This is the lead single from his new blues album Songs from the Holler out September 18th.
