Admittedly, I never followed Poi Dog Pondering, not remotely in fact, yet when I had the opportunity to snatch up this little curio a couple years back for a song (literally) I didn't pass it up. When they came "onto the scene" as it were, in the late '80s, I remember that much was made of their neo-folk bent, and comparatively offbeat accoutrements. Thus, this is what likely turned me off to them, being the indie guitar-rock aficionado that I was well on my way to becoming.

Poi Dog Pondering has a sound much like Rusted Root. After getting a recording contract from Columbia, they moved to Austin, Texas. They released two CD's of much better, more focused music. The music is from a very talented, eclectic group of minstrels that has since evolved throughout the years. Poi Dog Pondering has always been true, never taking the convenient or easy path. Most of the music here is light-hearted with influences of folk, vaudville, rock, Hawaiian and international rhythms. Much of the album is light and happy-songs of everyday living.
