Names You Should Know: Joy Harjo, The Dinallos, Tautologic & The Ladles Poetry, Americana, Alternative Rock & Folk-Pop Author:
America borrowed its tradition of having an appointed Poet Laureate (since 1936) from Great Britain. Native American Joy Harjo is one such individual. She’s also a singer-songwriter-author and with the help of the supremely talented Barrett Martin, has written and produced one of the most unique albums of the year. Harjo’s spoken-word entreaties are thought-provoking. On I Pray For My Enemies (Sunyata Records), she plays alto sax, percussion, flute and piano. Martin plays guitar, percussion, bass, keyboards and vibes. Mike McCready of Pearl Jam and Black Crow Rich Robinson take the bombastic electric guitar solos. Krist Novoselic of Nirvana strums acoustic. Providing esoteric buzz is Rahim Alhaj on oud and Dave Carter on trumpet. The 16 tracks are a sonic stew. Spoken-word albums have never sounded so good.
Music Scene: New album from the Dinallos is a family affair By Jay N. Miller Pre-pandemic, protean guitarist Mike Dinallo was busy planning another EP of his outstanding rock ‘n’ roots music, while his wife, Juliet Simmons Dinallo was well into the preparation and writing for a new album of her Americana music. The various lockdowns threw all those plans into disarray and eventually put an end to Mike’s frequent trips to and from Nashville sessions. But it also forced the couple to learn how to do a lot of their recording work at their Shrewsbury home and after a while, it seemed to make much more sense to combine their efforts into one record.
