Larkin Poe release new album 'Venom & Faith' today

After catching the duo Larkin Poe in an incredible performance at the Doheny Blues Festival in Dana Point, CA earlier this year, I am excited to check out their new album 'Venom & Faith' that is released today...

"The band keeps a strong outlaw mentality and defy expectations of roots rock" --Paste Magazine
"Electric, raucous romp" --Rolling Stone

Riding on the crest of their new single "Honey Honey" which premiered last week, Nashville-based sister duo LARKIN POE have released their third album VENOM & FAITH via Tricki-Woo Records. This album is the follow-up to their critically-acclaimed sophomore album Peach, which was nominated for a Blues Music Award for Best Emerging Artist Album.

Venom & Faith was produced by the band and engineered by their long-time collaborator Roger Alan Nichols. It was recorded in Nashville earlier this year in between headline shows, festival dates such as Bonnaroo and Lollapalooza, and a featured guest performer spot on Keith Urban’s Graffiti U World Tour.

Larkin Poe approached Venom & Faith with fierce independence, from Rebecca’s powerful vocals on “Ain’t Gonna Cry” to Megan’s sultry lap steel on “Good And Gone,” the sisters weave their talents into the fabric of their experience and a picture of the American South. “Blue Ridge Mountains” harkens to the sisters’ hometown, “drinking sweet tea every day” with stomping percussion and churning riffs.

Still, the sisters maintain an outlaw mindset in a traditional genre. Unbound by tawdry embellishments, Larkin Poe infuse pop sensibilities into their sound, blending old-school elements of rock and soul with drum samples, hip-hop production values, and resonant lyrics like “California king-sized dreams in a twin bed.” Venom & Faith redefines what it means to make emotionally resonant music while also maintaining boundary-pushing musicality.
