Shawn Mullins'
debut release for Vanguard Records marks a return to the
acoustic sound featured on Mullins' early solo recordings.
9th Ward Pickin' Parlor is named for the
singer-songwriter's home studio in New Orleans where much of the
CD was recorded. The folk-oriented recording is one of
Mullins' best releases to date featuring compelling songs with a
confident delivery. The CD closes with a cover of "House
of the Rising Sun" - a song set in New Orleans and a
nice addition to round out the
recording.
