Caravan Across the River

Dark, cinematic folk-blues with a slow, rattling shuffle; low-tuned acoustic guitar and bowed bass, sparse percussion like chains and wood hits. Male vocals: weary, rough around the edges, almost whispered in the verses, rising into a raw, haunted wail on the chorus. Subtle gospel-style harmonies answer key lines, with mournful harmonica swells that bloom between sections and a final fade on distant humming.
