Earl Pickens & Family
THE JOSHUA TREE
In 2009, Earl Pickens & Family released their acoustic interpretation of the classic U2 album, The Joshua Tree.
Performed and recorded live, this song-by-song rendition of the original album dismantles and reconstructs each song with upright bass, fiddle, mandolin, banjo, snare drum and haunting vocal harmonies. The end result is a new album that
presents the well-worn Joshua Tree songs in a different light; retaining and enhancing their emotional resonance. Also, it’s cool.
