Trying to save the world every weekend morning, they conjure healing vibrations by harmonizing with household appliances. They accompany these vibrations with banjo, guitar, and neighborhood sounds like trash trucks, birds, helicopters and such. Finally, “Lurch and Holler” sing, coo and growl words into the poultice which have lately been inspired by the Odyssey, Flannery O’Connor and Gertrude Stein. The resulting medicine is Appalachian Techno Psychedelia and not so far from “Lurch and Holler’s” origin, the Mystic Hillbillie Opera of the late trio, “Lambs Eat Ivy”.
