What @d3eztrickz said. And the reason Tammy’s vocals sound so good is because of the harmony she’s adding :). She was touring with Reba McEntire as her fiddler when The SteelDrivers was formed. Next year will be their 20th year together as a band.
Escaped slaves were classified as contraband by the confederacy, just like stolen goods. Where contraband can be a man, with a musket on his shoulder, is a reference to an escaping slave fighting with The Union for his freedom. These lyrics fuck me up every time.
He's heading north with his wife to join the Union and chase the taste of bondage from his tongue. DANG, these are powerful lyrics. And, yes, there is a difference between a violin and a fiddle. A violin has strings, a fiddle has strangs!
Hey brother! I appreciate you checking the song out. Keep the grind up! I'll follow your journey and support you where I can :D Her name is Tammy Rogers. A "fiddle" is usually the term used in Bluegrass or Country/Western music. A "violin" is the term used for the instrument used in classical a musical setting. They are the same thing tho lol. It's a song from the perspective of a slave.
