Wickham, Fred

Mariosa Delta

Fred Wickham's taking a new swing at the troubadour's life. Some of you remember the midwest band Hadacol from the '90s. After more than 15 years the Hadacol leader is back with a new album. The album is definitely a departure from Wickham's roots-rock/alt-country background with its laid back rhythms and thoughtful lyrics. Mariosa Delta was produced by notable Midwest music figure Low Whitney, making it the last Lp Whitney produced before his death. Perhaps it's no surprise that the album focuses heavily on the tolls of death, grief, crumbling relationships and total loss. Wickham tackles these dark themes throughout the 13-track set of unexpectedly upbeat country/Americana tunes featuring honky-tonk piano, bluegrass-inspired fiddle, and New Orleans/Dixieland jazz-tingled horn accompaniments...
