The St. Louis roots, rock and ‘grass duo River Kittens have shared their new song “Trouble” that’s featured on their debut EP Soaking Wet via Create Records. The River Kittens have been on tour with The Allman Betts Band as direct support for several weeks already this year, and are gearing up to head back out later this month. “Trouble” follows the release of “Illinois Boy” earlier this spring, as well as a bluegrass makeover of Bruce Springsteen’s “Atlantic City” which was released earlier this year.

But its history is rich, its people proud and defiant, and nowhere is that more evident than in its music. Culture is what defines the country – its drums and Vaksins (horns) are symbols of freedom and pride, liberty and struggle, and the joy of dancing.
