Yodelling Overtures

Yodeling is much like other music genres. We have lo-fi yodel and symphonic yodel and the whole spectre in-between.
Look what may have happened if you had taken, say Caroline, of the DeZurik Sisters, and married her to a filthy rich Australian gold mining entrepeneur. She get to live in a castle full of flowers and maids. She would have EVERYTHING a girl would dream of; hundreds of dresses, diamonds, chocolate in silvery shrines in every which one of the 59 rooms, not having to work for a living. Luxury.
Her yodeling would slowly start to change. And here is the final result:

The DeZurik Sisters - Hillbilly Bill

We have blogged about The DeZurik Sisters and their patented yodeling style before here. But I dont think we have published any tv footage of them before. So. Here is a clip from the Old American Barn Dance with them. Cackle away girls!

Week 54 - Oddities, Dezurik Sisters

The Dezurik Sisters are probably more well known as the Cackle Sisters, a more apt name when describing their singing style. They didn´t release many commercial recordings in their day, only three 78s on the Vocalion label in the late 1930s. Quite lovely.
