White Water Ramble – Pseudonyms

Pseudonymous marks WhiteWater Ramble’s third studio release in its 15-year history, and seven years since the release of their acclaimed 2013 album Roots & Groove. Lead by Patrick Sites, the band’s newest release features 14 original cuts that offer up special guest appearances by Chris Pandolfi of the Infamous Stringdusters on Banjo, Joey Porter of The Motet on clavinet, and the vocal chops of Jessica Jones, Adam Lufkin and The Black Swan Singers lead by Sheryl Renee of The Contribution. The album title and cover art reflect the history of the group and rotational cast of characters that fill WhiteWater Ramble’s rich history. Members past and present have contributed to these songs in either spirit or directly in the flesh, which also creates a bit of anonymity. Being anonymous means you can’t be identified by name, but pseudonymous means someone who uses a false name. WhiteWater Ramble is the vessel through which these tracks are released, but the songs represent a lot of people and history.
