Description
Greetings From Cairo, Illinois is a concept/historical album about this obscure, remarkable town. The project is a culmination of five years of research, hundreds of conversations and "countless hours of general hanging around" in what England describes as "the most fascinating town in America, bar none." The CD traces Cairo's history from 1858 to the present through the Civil War, lynchings, the blues years, civil rights struggles and spectacular decline. England is joined on the CD by top musicians from southern Illinois, Los Angeles and Nashville including alt-country legend Jason Ringenberg of Jason and the Scorchers, and Gnashville Sounds label mates Gutter Swans.
