Morning 40 Federation is a New Orleans ensemble that joyvially mixes
guitars, keyboards and horns.
As introduced by You My Brother (Tekito, 2000), the band comes through
as the Shonen Knife of rhythm and blues
and/or the Blues Explosion of brass bands.
The album has its share of
energetic southern funk-rock a` la Little Feat with touches of the Band's
roots-rock (Frenchy Got Bald Head, Chili Cheese Fries) and
even more energetic southern boogie
(Mischievous, Bottom Shelf Blues), but the core and the heart
of the project is elsewhere, in the stomping charleston of
Itsy Bitsy Brother, in the
terrifying boogie attack of Gotta Nickel (Captain Beefheart meets
the Residents), in the
drunkards' singalong (Tom Waits meets the Platters) of
Stinky, in the
snoring blues (Tom Waits singing Bob Dylan's Rainy day Women) of
Sorry Mom ,
witty and sometimes grotesques ditties that
singer Josh Cohen and guitarist Bailey Smith impale on the dreadful
pace of the rhythm and horn section.
