The Music of the Sabre Rattlers and Mark Abernathy

The music of Mark Abernathy and the Sabre Rattlers is a sound filtered through all manner of musical Americana — gospel, blues, Appalachian folk, traditional country, early rock’n’roll and even religious standards of the early 19th century.  These sounds come alive with a timeless energy that reflects inspiration garnered from the fervor and zeal but also despair of the people who struggled through the growing pains of a new nation.
