Noma kunjalo, phakathi kwamaqembu omculo wesimanje, akuwona wonke umuntu ozama ukusebenza ngokuvumelana "nezibonelo" zamaphayona, futhi abaculi abaningi bazama ukudala amagatsha amasha kuhlobo lwabo. Laba bahlanganisa neqembu iThe Dead South.
Indlela yeqembu eya empumelelweni
I-Dead South yasungulwa emuva ngo-2012 ngabaculi ababili baseCanada abanamakhono abavela kuRegina, Nate Hilt kanye noDanny Kenyon. Ngaphambi kwalokhu, womabili amalungu esikhathi esizayo "i-quartet" adlale eqenjini le-grunge elingathembisi kakhulu.
Iqembu lokuqala le-The Dead South lalinabaculi abane: uNate Hilt (izwi, isiginci, i-mandolin), uScott Pringle (isiginci, i-mandolin, iphimbo), uDanny Kenyon (i-cello namazwi) no-Colton Crawford (i-banjo). Ngo-2015, uColton washiya iqembu iminyaka emithathu, kodwa kamuva wanquma ukubuyela ohlwini olusunguliwe.
Abaculi bathole udumo lwabo lokuqala ngokudlala bukhoma phambi komphakathi. I-Dead South yaqopha i-albhamu yabo yokuqala encane ngo-2013. Uhlu lwakhe lwengoma lwaluhlanganisa izingoma ezinhlanu ezigcwele, izethameli ezazithola ngokufudumele.
Ngonyaka olandelayo, ibhendi yanquma ukuqopha i-albhamu yobude obugcwele ethi Good Company, eyakhululwa ngaphansi kwelebula yaseJalimane ethi Devil Duck Records.
I-albhamu yandisa kakhulu izethameli zabalandeli beqembu, futhi i-Dead South yachitha cishe iminyaka emibili ohambweni olukhulu ngaphandle kwe-Canada yabo yomdabu.

Ngesikhathi engekho i-virtuoso banjoist uCrawford, esikhundleni sakhe kwathathwa u-Eliza Mary Doyle, umculi owaziwayo waseCanada oyedwa kanye nesitudiyo. Ukubuyela ekuqanjweni kukaCrawford kwavumela u-Doyle ukuba anikele isikhathi esiningi emsebenzini wakhe yedwa.
I-albhamu yesithathu neyesine
I-albhamu ethi Illusion & Doubt ibingeyesithathu emsebenzini weqembu, futhi ngenxa yalokho ibhendi yazuza impumelelo enkulu. Ngemuva kokukhishwa kwayo ngo-2016, i-albhamu isheshe yangena kwabangu-5 abaphezulu beshadi leBillboard Bluegrass.

Ikakhulukazi ochwepheshe bomculo balinganisele amathrekhi okuthi Boots, Miss Mary kanye ne-Hard Day. Ekugcineni, ngokusho kwabo, ithalente likaHilt njengomculi wakwazi ukuziveza ngokugcwele.
Abaculi beqembu abawujabulisi umphakathi ngokuqala kwe-albhamu kaningi - i-albhamu yesine ethi Sugar & Joy by The Dead South yakhululwa ngo-2019 kuphela, eminyakeni emithathu ngemuva kokukhishwa okukhulu kokugcina. Kuyaphawuleka ukuthi zonke izingoma eziku-albhamu kaSugar & Joy zaqanjwa futhi zaqoshwa ngaphandle kwedolobha lakubo labaculi, okungeke kushiwo ngama-albhamu adlule.

Ubuciko obunjalo bungaba nesithakazelo kumlaleli okhuluma isiNgisi, noma okungenani kulowo mthandi womculo okwazi ukubamba amagama ajwayelekile emibhalweni, kodwa lokhu akusho ukuthi uma umlaleli ekhuluma "wena" ngesiNgisi, khona-ke uya akukho angakubheka engomeni ethi The Dead South.
