Neyla Pekarek - Rattlesnake (New CD)

2019 release. Rattlesnake is the highly anticipated debut solo album from Neyla Pekarek, formerly a member of The Lumineers. On lead single "Train," Pekarek sets the record's adventurous tone with a playful, upbeat melody accentuated by her full-throated vocal delivery. Blending indie, country and folk-infused sounds, she travels between lows and highs while telling the narrative through the fearless lens of one of the strongest independent woman in American history: Rattlesnake Kate. Rattlesnake is a concept album that centers around Rattlesnake Kate. Telling one of the greatest untold stories of the wild west, Pekarek channels her inner midwest badass, recounting tales from the love letters between Rattlesnake Kate and Colonel Charles D. Randolph.
