About The Dead South

The Dead South formed in Regina, Saskatchewan, in 2012, led by singer and guitarist Nate Hilts, with Danny Kenyon playing cello in the bass role alongside mandolin and banjo. The cello gives their bluegrass a lower, heavier bottom end, and the songs lean toward drinking, death and bad decisions, sung in gang choruses.

The video for 'In Hell I'll Be in Good Company', filmed as a single shot of the band in suspenders and wide-brimmed hats, spread widely online and drew a large international audience. Their albums include 'Good Company', 'Illusion & Doubt' and 'Sugar & Joy'.
