Larkin Poe releases “Bluephoria” video
Larkin Poe – the GRAMMY® Award-winning duo of Georgia-bred, Nashville-based multi-instrumentalist sisters Rebecca and Megan Lovell – continue what is proving a milestone year with the jubilant new single, “Bluephoria,” available now via their own Tricki-Woo Records. An official music video – filmed in The Blue Room at Nashville, TN’s Third Man Records – premieres on YouTube.
“Once upon a time: we caught a case of the blues so deep and all-encompassing that it launched us on a euphoric exploration,” says Larkin Poe. “‘Bluephoria’ is a rock ’n’ roll rumination on the duality of the human experience; deep down in the quietest place where the bitter and the sweet twine together, and suffering/joy are galvanized into meaning. Take special note of the second verse which was inspired by the words of legendary Memphis bluesman Furry Lewis, who is quoted as having said: ‘Now I know I ain’t a star, but I sure might be a moon.’”
2024 got off to a triumphant start for Larkin Poe, beginning with their first career GRAMMY® Award, winning “Best Contemporary Blues Album” for 2022’s critically acclaimed sixth studio album, Blood Harmony. Additional accolades followed, including a prestigious Americana Music Honors & Awards nomination for “Duo/Group of the Year.”
Long praised as one of hardest touring acts on the road today, Larkin Poe will celebrate their landmark year with a truly epic live schedule that includes top-billed festival appearances around the world, US runs with Slash’s all-star S.E.R.P.E.N.T Festival and KALEO’s Payback Tour 2024, and more.
