The Dead South announce Served Live Venue Bingo, a creative fundraiser that shines the light on venues around the world to promote and support the work being done to stabilize the live music industry during the pandemic - and beyond - by three organizations: NIVA (#SaveOurStages, USA), Music Venue Trust (#SaveOurVenues, UK) and CIVC (#SupportCanadianVenues, Canada).

Established in 2000 in Toronto, Six Shooter Records is a full-service music company with a diverse roster that includes artists in the genres of Americana, country, rock, and avant-garde. In addition to being a label and a publisher, the company also provides artist management services. Since its inception, Six Shooter has released over 140 albums. Our artists have been consistently recognized in national award programs, including the JUNO Awards, Polaris Music Prize, SOCAN Awards, Canadian Folk Music Awards, and others.

The Dead South always planned to document the Served Cold World Tour, which would take the band from their hometown of Regina, Saskatchewan through 200 shows in over 20 countries. Now, with show postponements into 2022, the band offers fans a snapshot of their lauded live show with Served Live, a double live album and complete set list collection recorded at venues across North America, UK and Ireland in 2019-2020.

Our first release of 2021 is The Dead South's Served Live, their first double live album, a true rite of passage for any band.

That seems like so long ago that it could have been when The Dead South’s old timey outfits were still the current fashion of the day! Served Live will be out later this month

“Gospel is by definition ‘the good news,’ says William Prince, about his new album, Gospel First Nation, out today. “Everything considered, all that feels appropriate right now are the songs my family used to sing during wakes and funerals. Songs for families in need of comfort. These songs were capable of lifting spirits in the darkest of times. I witnessed it on many occasions.

Elliott BROOD approach the release of Keeper, an album about loyalty and resilience, with a new song out today. As the second song shared from Keeper, “Bird Dog” is a metaphor for companionship. When the lines between those who chase and those who run get blurry, the song reminds us that in partnerships, we are seldom only one or the other.

We are addressing the reports of sexual misconduct against Danny Kenyon of The Dead South from women who have been harmed. These reports are of incidents from years before we started working with Danny and the band.

Elliott BROOD announce their return to Six Shooter Records, home of the trio’s early breakout albums, with their seventh album, Keeper. The title, which speaks to loyalty and longevity, sets the tone for an album that explores the strength of conviction, and how that strength is tested over time. Thoughts of worthiness and dedication, and their emotional flip sides, inform a collection that sees the history-minded band exploring battlefields much closer to home.

The Dead South celebrated their second JUNO Award win for Traditional Roots Album of the Year last night, announced in a virtual awards show that also featured the bluegrass quartet performing at an empty venue in Saskatoon, Saskatchewan, the intended host city.
