Lloyd Maines
Eagle Number 65  (self-released)

“During 50 years of recording, I’ve either produced or played on around 5000 projects, and I am very grateful for that opportunity. I started playing guitar at the age of 13 from a Mel Bay chord book. I started playing pedal steel at age 17. Steel is my main instrument but over the years, because of needing something different on recordings, I learned to play several other instruments. During year two of the Covid pandemic, I decided to produce an album on myself. It was recorded in my little, funky man cave studio at our house in Austin. Because I have four very talented grandkids, they are included on the album. These 12 songs are the result of our family adventure.”

Americana Music Releases for Aug. 26th

Posted on August 24, 2022 by

Here’s some the best Americana and roots-type music releases for August 26th, 2022. Click the artist or album links to find out more. The artist’s names link to their websites and the CD title links go to either Amazon, iTunes, Bandcamp or the artist’s site for ordering or downloading.  A + sign means although not a featured release, it’s a notable album that’s still worth checking out.  Also, this page will be updated as I find out about other new releases so check back again.

Valerie June
Under Cover  (Fantasy Records)

Valerie June’s sonic alchemy has been on the global radar since Dan Auerbach got involved with her trad/modern song fusions as producer on 2013’s Pushin’ Against a Stone. Black gospel flair and East Tennessee folk leanings came together on that recording with riveting pop ideas, and June has been adding further influences and interests to the dynamic mix on ensuing albums. It makes sense, then, that June would gift her listeners with one of the more imaginative covers projects we’ve heard in some time. Under Cover features four previously released remakes, available as one-off singles or as bonus tracks on deluxe releases, along with four new covers of song by Bob Dylan, Nick Drake, Frank Ocean and more,  (edited from No Depression review)

Jim Lauderdale
Game Changer  (Missing Piece Music)

So let’s cut to the chase:  if you enjoyed most of Lauderdale’s previous 34 albums, you are going to enjoy Game Changer.  Game Changer has everything you would want in a Lauderdale album – interesting and moving songwriting, remarkable musicianship across the board, and his singular voice.  That is not to damm Game Changer with faint praise; it is, rather,  to acknowledge the remarkable consistency of his recordings.  Lauderdale himself is well aware of the challenge his own history creates.  He says that  “It’s a constant challenge to try to keep making better and better records, write better and better songs. I still always feel like I’m a developing artist.”

 

Also new this week…

Will Hoge – Wings on My Shoes (self-released)
Marcus King – Young Blood  (American/Republic Records)
Tommy McLain – I Ran Down Every Dream  (Yep Roc Records)
Dan Navarro – Horizon Line  (Red Hen Records)

Coming out in the next few weeks… Ragland, Lloyd Maines, Jake La Botz, Charley Crockett, Sunny Sweeney, Frank Solivan & Dirty Kitchen, Bella White, Trampled by Turtles, Derek Hoke, Adam Hood, Amy Ray and more …

Americana Music Releases for Aug. 19th

Posted on August 18, 2022 by

Here’s some the best Americana and roots-type music releases for August 19th, 2022. Click the artist or album links to find out more. The artist’s names link to their websites and the CD title links go to either Amazon, iTunes, Bandcamp or the artist’s site for ordering or downloading.  A + sign means although not a featured release, it’s a notable album that’s still worth checking out.  Also, this page will be updated as I find out about other new releases so check back again.

Shemekia Copeland
Done Come Too Far  (Alligator Records)

Done Come Too Far is a work focused on the experiences of Copeland as she navigates modern-day America as a black woman and as a mother. Her profound social conscience is translated into courageous lyrics that dwell on race relations, violence, and social struggles. And as a vehicle for these timely observations, comes intense music. The songs on rank among some of the best Copeland has ever recorded, and are elevated by the album’s masterful production courtesy of Will Kimbrough. Done Come Too Far is a modern blues album at its best, and a work of a woman of her time, deeply aware of her surroundings. The release expands the blues’ boundaries while remaining faithful to its roots, and adds another triumphant chapter to an already stellar career.  (edited from Blues Rock Review review)

Ever More Nest
Out Here Now  (self-released)

“Do you believe that a song has the power to right any wrongs?” asks Kelcy Wilburn midway through Out Here Now, her excellent second outing under the Ever More Nest banner. The Louisiana native doesn’t pretend to know the answer to this or any of life’s knottier questions, but that doesn’t deter her from fearlessly pursuing emotional truths. At times despairing, at others ebullient, this stirring album looks at the ways a soul slips, falls, and gets back up, always stumbling toward the light. Producer/drummer Neilson Hubbard fashioning an engaging stringband backdrop that allows aces Will Kimbrough and Fats Kaplin  to embellish Wilburn’s elegant melodies with cool touches. The album unfolds in tantalizing vignettes, creating a powerful self-portrait, she rejoices in new beginnings on the luminous title track, and closes Out Here Now on a note of hope, gently asking a potential sweetheart, “All I want is to be in love — won’t you let me?” It’s an exhilarating conclusion to a lovely album. (edited from No Depression review)

Americana Music Releases for Aug. 12th

Posted on August 11, 2022 by

Here’s some the best Americana and roots-type music releases for August 12th, 2022. Click the artist or album links to find out more. The artist’s names link to their websites and the CD title links go to either Amazon, iTunes, Bandcamp or the artist’s site for ordering or downloading.  A + sign means although not a featured release, it’s a notable album that’s still worth checking out.  Also, this page will be updated as I find out about other new releases so check back again.

 

Kelsey Waldon
No Regular Dog  (Oh Boy Records)

The pride of Monkey’s Eyebrow, Kentucky (really) gets back in the post-pandemic musical saddle for more pure, subtle country with elegantly conceived lyrics. Kelsey Waldon already had two impressive albums and an EP to her name when John Prine signed her to his Oh Boy label in 2018.  he decamped to LA, recording outside of Nashville and her home state for the first time, and enlisting Shooter Jennings as producer for album four. As in the past, Waldon uses her road band anchoring these often personal stories. Most critically though, her clear, sweet, somewhat melancholy country vocals ride atop rootsy country/folk melodies that never feel like blueprints or repeats of what she has already recorded. The album’s name summarizes Kelsey Waldon’s superb talents and determined approach to her profession. In a music world filled with uncertainties she …”ain’t no regular dog/More like a wolf on the kill.”  (edited from American Songwriter review)

Kenny Roby
Kenny Roby  (Royal Potato Family)

Once upon a time in Raleigh, North Carolina, for about 10 bucks total, you could get the best sandwich in town and a dose of rockin’ honky-tonk courtesy of Kenny Roby. Like a punky John Prine, Roby’s music could have fit in anywhere: folk, country, rock, a happy wandering of styles that was laid back and easy-going. Steve Earle liked what he heard so much he signed Roby and his band, Six String Drag, producing 1997’s High Hat, but the band dissolved the next year. On his solo records, especially on 2020’s The Reservoir and now his on eponymous new one, Roby is much quieter, more introspective. After relocating to Woodstock, NY, Roby seems to have soaked up some of the spirits wafting around the area. Tim Hardin and Bob Dylan hang around spiritually in Roby’s work, as do a few other folkie notables.Kenny Roby is a nice dip into the singer-songwriter’s musical gene pool, reflecting his inner demons and his outcasting methods.  (edited from No Depression review)

 

Various Artists
Something Borrowed, Something New: A Tribute to John Anderson   (Easy Eye Sound)

Over the past four decades John Anderson has sold millions of albums and managed to influence an entire generation of country and Americana musicians. And yet, he’s still not as widely known as he should be in 2022. His influence is apparent by the caliber of musician that pay tribute to Anderson in the record, everyone from Jamey Johnson to Sturgill Simpson, Sierra Ferrell, Brent Cobb, Luke Comb and Gillian Welch and even John Prine. “We weren’t trying to piddle around and make the normal tribute record,” said producer Dan Auerbach. “It had to be the best singers with the best songs and the best arrangements, and they had to come into the studio. This wasn’t like, ‘Mail me the song, and we’ll put it together.’ I think it makes this record unique. I don’t think most tribute records are done like this. I think that’s why it sounds like a cohesive album. It feels like an amazing mix tape.”  (edited from Americana Highways tribute)

Also new this week…

John Calvin Abney – Tourist  (Black Mesa Records)
Ace of Cups – Extended Play (High Moon Records)
The Brother Brothers – Cover to Cover  (Compass Records)
Fireside Collective – Across The Divide (Mountain Home Music Co.)
Rachel Sumner & Traveling Light – Rachel Sumner & Traveling Light  (Sad Luck Dame Records)
The Western Express – Lunatics, Lovers & Poets  (self-released)
Will Stewart – Slow Life  (Cornelius Chapel Records)

Coming out in the next few weeks… Cahalan Morrison, Vandoliers, Early James, Walter Trout, Kelsey Waldon, Loudon Wainwright III, Will Hoge, Watkins Family Hour, Shemekia Copeland, Bill Scorzari, Jim Lauderdale, Dan Navarro, Charley Crockett, Sunny Sweeney and more …

Americana Music Releases for July 29th

Posted on July 28, 2022 by

Here’s some the best Americana and roots-type music releases for July 29th, 2022. Click the artist or album links to find out more. The artist’s names link to their websites and the CD title links go to either Amazon, iTunes, Bandcamp or the artist’s site for ordering or downloading.  A + sign means although not a featured release, it’s a notable album that’s still worth checking out.  Also, this page will be updated as I find out about other new releases so check back again.

Andrew Duhon
Emerald Blue  (Verve Records)

Andrew Duhon’s Emerald Blue is effortless. Perhaps taking a note from his hometown, New Orleans, he casually glides through his songs. Whether Duhon is musing on the delicious loneliness of life on the road or celebrating the transcendent moments found in daily life, there’s an easygoing nature throughout Emerald Blue that reminds us that life should be taken in stride. While Emerald Blue is easy to listen to, it’s not all driving down the highway with the windows down. On “Everybody Colored Their Own Jesus,” Duhon takes asks why it’s so hard to achieve acceptance and, more importantly, to celebrate our differences. By using the metaphor of children coloring with crayons. Ultimately, Duhon reminds us that everything comes in its time: adventure, loneliness, tragedy and — yes, even if it’s fleeting — contentment. (edited from No Depression review)

Josh Rouse
Going Places  (Yep Roc Records)

Across more than a dozen albums going back to 1998, Josh Rouse has managed to cobble together a satisfying blend of folk and Americana with strong pop elements. His latest though, Going Places, still uses that established musical template as a starting point, but is much more relaxed affair.  Written when he was forced off the road due to the pandemic, he retreated with his family to Spain with plenty of time on his hands. Missing out on performing, he pulled together his Spanish band and started playing regularly in a friend’s bar. The mix of songs that sound like they’re being written on the spot sitting on a stool in a bar, with tracks that are a bit more polished and contain several musical layers makes for a compelling listen. (edited from Glide Magazine review)

Amanda Shires
Take It Like A Man  (ATO Records)

Plenty of musicians take great pains to create distance between their lyrics and their personal lives. Amanda Shires is not one of them.  “Everything on the record is autobiographical. I didn’t hold anything back,” Shires said. That’s tricky enough for someone who lives a fairly public life in her own right. Add in that Shires is married to someone who’s also famous (that would be Jason Isbell), that the bulk of these songs trace the bumpy contours of their marriage and that he plays guitar on seven of them, and you can’t help but wonder if their bond is uncommonly resilient, or whether this year’s family vacation is still on.Musically, these songs are often terse and filled with tension that emerges in squiggles of violin on the title track; dark, minor-key piano and a slow-motion wave of overdriven electric guitar on “Fault Lines”. Take It Like a Man is Shires’ first album in a while that feels fully self-contained, as if she decided that the only person she needs to impress with these songs is herself. By removing herself from competition with anyone else, Shires emerges as a clear winner.  (edited from Paste Magazine review)

The Brothers Comatose – Turning Up the Ground  (Swamp Jam Records) +
Wyatt Easterling – From Where I Stand  (Phoenix Rising Records)  +

John Moreland
Birds in the Ceiling  (Old Omens Records)

Birds In The Ceiling is Moreland’s sixth album and finds the esteemed artist, and producer Matt Pence, building on the ambient sonic experimentation that was introduced on 2020’s critically acclaimed album, LP5. Moreland also expands the scope of his guitar playing, both acoustic and electric, that is prevalent throughout the new album.  While Moreland’s sound continues to evolve, the foundation for his songs remains built around his profound and pensive lyricism. His warm vocals offer an emotional resonance that simultaneously exudes intensity and restraint, making Birds In The Ceiling an intimate listening experience that blurs genre lines. Moreland’s wide ranging musical tastes and influences inform Birds In The Ceiling more than in any of his previous work, with touches of folk, retro-pop, rock, roots and drum-programming.  (edited from Glide magazine review)

Americana Music Releases for July 15th

Posted on July 15, 2022 by

Here’s some the best Americana and roots-type music releases for July 15th, 2022. Click the artist or album links to find out more. The artist’s names link to their websites and the CD title links go to either Amazon, iTunes, Bandcamp or the artist’s site for ordering or downloading.  A + sign means although not a featured release, it’s a notable album that’s still worth checking out.  Also, this page will be updated as I find out about other new releases so check back again.

Willi Carlisle
Peculiar, Missouri  (Free Dirt Records)

Bright harmonica, a driving banjo, shades of the late Utah Phillips, the finesse of the late David Olney with the entertaining value-added of the late Boxcar Willie. Big shoes to fill for Willi Carlisle – but you know what? Willi does it. He plays banjo, percussion, acoustic guitar, guitar, button accordion, fiddle, banjo, fretless banjo & harmonica. He sings & plays consistently well on his 2nd LP in his own compelling style. Willi obviously knows how to create music with a circuitry of sensitivity. He says his words evoke the American storytelling of Whitman, Carl Sandburg & e.e. cummings. He summons a Johnny Bond-Johnny Cash talking-vocal style once even popular with Woody Guthrie & Bob Dylan. I like Willi. He has emotional honesty without being soft & always with an entertaining style. Though he can be wordy it can be construed as expressive. He needs a touch more outlaw. He’s closer to Waylon & Merle than George Jones.  (edited from Americana Highways review)

Arlo McKinley
This Mess We’re In (Oh Boy Records)

With a title like This Mess We’re In, Arlo McKinley’s 2nd album is bound to ring a bell for most listeners these days. But the album is more optimistic than it sounds: The 11 songs find him emerging from darkness and striving toward light. Which can’t have been easy: Over the past two years, the Cincinnati songwriter lost his mother and his best friend and suffered heartbreak as other people close to him struggled with or succumbed to addiction. But music helped him through it all. “I’m private with a lot of things I go through, but in my songs, I’m honest about everything. So I started to write as a way of getting stuff out,” McKinley says . “To me, this is a growth record. I was navigating through a pretty bad time, but also there was the realization that it’s time to really change. I hope listeners can identify with the things they’re too ashamed to talk about or feel,” he continues. “There’s such a stigma that goes along with things like addiction and mental health. I just want them to know that I go through all of that too.”  (edited from No Depression review)

We Banjo 3
Open The Road  (self-released)

he acclaimed quartet of two sets of brothers — Enda and Fergal Scahill and David and Martin Howley — that hail from Galway, Ireland, continues to share their refreshing perspective through a bluegrass sound that’s translated across continents. Celebrating their 10-year anniversary this year, the band sounds as beautiful as ever with the new album, which captures the essence of bluegrass with organic banjo and fiddle melodies that evoke warm vibes and lyrics that feel like a welcoming embrace. We Banjo 3 spend most of their time offering messages of hope and unity, using themes of growth, nature, and positive transformation to get the point across.  (edited from No Depression review)

The Broken Spokes – Where I Went Wrong  (self-released)

Americana Music Releases for July 8th

Posted on July 7, 2022 by

Here’s some the best Americana and roots-type music releases for July 8th, 2022. Click the artist or album links to find out more. The artist’s names link to their websites and the CD title links go to either Amazon, iTunes, Bandcamp or the artist’s site for ordering or downloading.  A + sign means although not a featured release, it’s a notable album that’s still worth checking out.  Also, this page will be updated as I find out about other new releases so check back again.

The Deslondes
Ways & Means  (New West Records)

In the five years since The Deslondes last put out a record, both Sam Doores and Riley Downing have managed to release solo albums – both solid offerings – but it’s the music the comes out of the two working with the rest of the band that really shines. On Ways & Means, the Louisiana-based band’s third effort, they finally coalesce behind their strongest, most eclectic sound yet, setting the bar where all future records will be judged. They produced this one once again with Andrija Tokic and have clearly landed on a comfortable mix of Americana, folk and decent dose of Leon Russell-inspired Swamp funk. “The album title reminds me of being young, getting into the music business, going through everything and coming out of it,” said Downing recently. “We’re taking a look right, left, and back at ourselves.”  (edited from Glide Magazine review)

Richie Furay
In The Country  (Renew Records)

The frustrations start before pushing play. Despite the extended wait between albums, Furay hasn’t written any new songs. Rather, he covers material penned or popularized by everyone from John Denver to Garth Brooks and Alabama.The advance promotional notes quote Furay saying “Rock and roll and country, that’s what I’m really about.” Strangely there is little of either in these dozen selections that veer so far towards slick, heavily commercialized pop. Give Furay credit for remaining in the game at this late stage. But it’s not too much to expect something more substantial, original and compelling from a guy with a standing in Americana history as impressive as his. (edited from Holler. review)

Also new this week…

The Bacon Brothers – Erato (Soundly Music)
Lyman Ellerman – Departure  (Woodshed Resistance)
Michelle Rivers – Chasing Somewhere  (self-released)

Coming out in the next few weeks… The Local Honeys, Merle Jagger, Amanda Shires, Arlo McKinley, Tami Neilson, The Old North, Phil Cook, John Moreland, Nick Nace, The Sadies,  Josh Rouse, Jonah Tolchin, We Banjo 3, Cahalan Morrison, Kelsey Waldon, Will Hoge and more …
