Known to many across the honky tonks of America as a craftsman of electrified outlaw country music, JP Harris has recently been singing an older song, calling on the music that changed his life twenty years ago. “Old-time music has been a baseline for me,” Harris says. “And I think in getting a little older, a little more comfortable with myself and trusting my intuitions a little more, I've realized that one thing that's never changed in the tumult of launching and trying to build and maintain a music career all these years, the one consistent love and lover that I've had has been the old-time community.”&nbsp;With Shaving A Dead Man, JP Harris embraces and exuberates Appalachian old-time music with a history and integrity that confounds the 21st century’s dystopian decline. The repertoire is heirloom, but the performances by Harris, alongside fiddler Chance McCoy (Old Crow Medicine Show), have a subversive power and a healing, analog humanity.&nbsp;Shaving A Dead Man reflects a passionate and personal interpretation of tradition, not some scholarly survey. As with any quality folk music, the collection has a sense of place, specifically the studio where it was recorded in Monroe County, West Virginia.&nbsp;Shaving A Dead Man is all yours this October 23rd on Bloodshot Records&nbsp;
