WILSON BANJO CO.
Memory Lane
DESCRIPTION:
“Coalmine” paints a vivid picture of a working-class community with “shotgun houses” and “shanty shacks” situated near a railroad track. It’s a soulful ballad that tells the story of a woman waiting for her man’s return from the coal mine. Originally recorded by Sara Evans, Wilson’s Banjo Co.’s Sarah (Logan) has a similar vocal tone. It’s uptempo, high energy and perfect for a foot stomping bluegrass cover.
