Reviews:
The Yearlings
Another roots act based in Adelaide, The Yearlings have once again come up with
a beautiful, tender album of original tunes from Robyn Chalklen and Chris
Parkinson. Fitting somewhere in between Gillian Welch and the Cowboy Junkies,
The Yearlings are in the best handful of country roots acts in the country and
on this their third album they have produced another cracker of a record.
Definitely worth checking out."Dave Clarke, Readings Bookstore - Carlton,
Victoria
The Yearlings' previous albums have hinted at great things to come and Highway
Dancing may just be it. Recorded in Brooklyn over four days and featuring
members of New York band Ollabelle, this is indeed a fully operational
Yearlings. From the opening title track, Robyn Chalklen's laid-back, fragile
vocals effortlessly counterpoint partner Chris Parkinson, particularly when he
takes the lead on tracks such as Will You Be Ready? and Sheets of the Night.
Impressive also is the songwriting, and Don't Feel Kind and Precious Time are
standouts. The presence of guitarist Larry Campbell, fresh from producing Levon
Helm's latest, Dirt Farmer, permeates the album, putting this Yearlings effort
into another league. From the pedal steel on The Waiting Song Campbell goes on
to provide everything from dobro to fiddle to mandolin. While the wider scope
that additional musicians afford give The Yearlings a change to spread their
wings, the most obvious impression throughout Highway Dancing is the great time
The Yearlings have had putting it together."
