“The Sound of Yodeling” is a deep dive into the unique vocal tradition that shaped early country and western music, with plenty of twang, trail tales, and high-lonesome sounds. This playlist brings together classic yodelers like Jimmie Rodgers, Patsy Montana, and Slim Whitman, alongside lesser-known voices such as Yodeling Slim Clark and Mary Schneider. Traditional cowboy songs meet Appalachian ballads, with a yodel weaving its way through tales of heartbreak, hard times, and wide open landscapes.
It’s not all campfires and cattle trails, though—this collection also taps into novelty yodels, Alpine-style tunes, and even a few offbeat selections like “Chicken Yodel” and “California Hippie Murders!” Whether it’s the crisp harmonies of The DeZurik Sisters, the fast-paced stylings of Kerry Christensen, or the soulful charm of Arabella Fields, “The Sound of Yodeling” offers a broad, quirky, and surprisingly rich look into a vocal tradition that blends Americana with a touch of European flair.
