The McIntosh County Shouters release album
FOLK MUSIC specialists Smithsonian Folkways Recordings have released
'Spiritual And Shout Songs From The Georgia Coast' by The McIntosh County
Shouters. The ensemble emanate from McIntosh County in Georgia.
Wrote the New Georgia Encyclopaedia, "The survival of the venerable
ring shout tradition can be attributed to the perseverance of several
elder tradition-bearers who are deeply committed to continuing the
tradition in both community practice and public performance and to
encouraging its practice by a new generation."
