JP Harris has a secret: his name is actually "Squash." Long before Harris became a well regarded honky-tonker, he used his childhood nickname while playing archaic "old-time" American tunes at underground fiddlers' gatherings, engrossed in this punkish folk music world.

'Don't You Marry No Railroad Man', his debut recording of traditional music under the moniker JP Harris' Dreadful Wind and Rain, features ten tracks spanning the breadth of American old-time repertoire. Harris wades between ancient ballads that traveled from the British Isles to Appalachia like "Barbry Ellen," to droning banjo ditties such as Hobart Smith's entrancing "Last Chance," here played on one of Harris' coveted homemade banjos.
