Artist Description
You may have heard that the town of
Balthrop, Alabama was founded in 1847 in Alabama’s Iron Belt. You might also
have heard that Balthrop was once a booming steel town for a hundred years or
so, but these days it has relaxed into an easier pace, providing a home to a
close-knit community of shopowners, innkeepers, handymen, farmers, students,
and a milkman. They do a pretty good job of keeping each others’ secrets. Or so
you may have heard. In fact, the band
Balthrop, Alabama was formed in early 2006 in Brooklyn, New York by
Alabama-born songwriter-siblings Pascal and Lauren Balthrop and eight or nine
of their musically-inclined neighbors. They get together every so often to sing
songs about dead people in love.
