In 1991, Jonathan Kane (co-founder of the Swans) and Dave Soldier discovered for themselves the fife-and-drum music of north Mississippi, and formed the #Kropotkins, a band that introduced #punk_blues, using rickety banjo, bass drum, snare, and fiddle (Mark Feldman and later Charlie Burnham, of James Blood Ulmer Trio) and slide guitar (Dog from John Cale and Siouxsie and the Banshees). The Kropotkins feature singer #Lorette_Velvette from Memphis (HellCats, Jessie Mae Hemphill) and formerly classic punk drummer, Mo Tucker (Georgia, USA) of the Velvet Underground, and Samm Bennett (Tokyo) and now Alex Greene (The Reigning Sound).
