Young Ancients - Fishstory - 2015
Young Ancients unites three renowned
performers - John Magnie (accordion, keyboard, vocals), Cary Morin
(guitar, pedal steel, vocals), and Steve Amedée (drums, percussion,
vocals) - whose musical roots intertwine in an inspired blend of blues,
folk-rock, soul, gospel, Native Americana, and New Orleans R&B.
Fusing three remarkable musicians’ signature styles, Young Ancients’
sound features rich vocal harmonies and unexpected
instrumentation - soulful accordion, maverick percussion, and deft
fingerstyle guitar. This alchemical collaboration combines an acoustic
earthiness, brilliant musicianship, and a dynamic, ragged edge - a
singular feat of seasoned musicians in the prime of their creative
power.
Magnie and Amedée’s previous collaborations include internationally acclaimed band The Subdudes, as well as The 3 Twins, renowned on the Colorado-Wyoming music scene. In 2010, both artists portrayed themselves in New Orleans-based HBO series Treme. Known for his skill as a musician, songwriter, and producer, Magnie’s credits include numerous movie and TV soundtracks and appearances. He is a pioneer of accordion in the rock and roll genre, realizing its untapped rhythmic possibilities. Amedée has been a mainstay drummer/percussionist on the Colorado music scene for decades, and has traveled extensively as a studio musician. His iconic sound is instantly recognizable, particularly his use of tambourine - from which he coaxes a range of tones and effects. With The Atoll and The Pura Fé Trio, and also as a solo artist, award-winning blues/world groove musician Cary Morin has performed internationally on stage, TV, and radio. His stage credits include co-authorship of Turtle Island, a 50-member production that played two consecutive years to sold-out audiences in Northern Colorado. In 2013, Morin was named Colorado’s International Blues Challenge Solo Champion.
Each an accomplished artist in his own right, all three band members have performed across the globe, sharing stages with such legends as B.B. King, Ray Charles, Al Green, and Al Jarreau. They’ve played celebrated venues including New York’s Lincoln Center, New Orleans Jazz and Heritage Festival, Paris Jazz Festival, and Folk Alliance International. As individual artists, these three have shared many a local stage for over 25 years, and stand side by side in the Jazz Alley Mural in their home base of Fort Collins, Colorado.
