Get ready for a knee-slappin’ good time with Chicken Tractor Deluxe’s Nightclub Jacks & Undertakers. This Pennsylvania based band who bring Outlaw Country Rock crossed with everything from Hillybilly pickin’ to Ragtime horns and all things twangy in between, seem to be part of a recent and growing trend of musicians bringing quality music to the Americana scene from the Keystone State (Hit and Miss Engines, Larabee).

Chicken Tractor Deluxe has a wide variety of vocal styling and country-based influence. The brass tinged, “When That Great Ship Went Down” is straight up Levon Helm while “The Cuckoo” sounds like it could have come from a Steve Earle, Del McCoury session. The Bluegrassy, “Father Bed” is a little bit Doc Watson and “Reuben’s Train” conjures up memories of the fine tuned roots rock Beggar’s Banquet-era Rolling Stones. Whatever it is they’re playing it’s good. And Nightclub Jacks & Undertakers is just about the perfect record for late night front porch listenin’ and beer drinkin’.
