Albums
“I’ll Be Yours” is a lively, well-produced album, featuring the diverse styles this band brings to the table. They draw from the great American tradition – Solid songwriting and top-notch musicianship should get The Americans some much-deserved attention.
Underhill Rose deliver a live album of their Appalachian-flavoured folk music that’s sure to be in popular demand following their recent tour of the UK & Ireland.
Likened equally to The Travelling Willburys, George Harrison, the Band and Jerry Garcia, Sideways Rain is a 13-track collection of American folk-tinted pop.
On Play One More Tom Russell celebrates the songs of Ian & Sylvia Tyson, the Canadian folk duo who were there at the start of the Greenwich Village folk boom and who also were early starters in the country rock stakes in the early seventies.
Musically tied to the dry and dusty landscape of his adoptive Texas home, Put it Together reinforces Jim Keaveny’s position as one of the most authentic dust bowl Americana artists currently riding the trail.
London-based songer songwriter Nigel Brown returns with Looking For The Rising Sun, his eighth self-released album.
Deservedly likened to All Things Must Pass in its scope and ambition, Brilliant Light is assuredly Danny & The Champions of the World’s masterpiece, an aural aurora borealis that will illuminate your musical life.
Good Morning Sky sees Katie Spencer off to a flying start. Her debut mini-album has shades of John Martyn and also offers a broader palette which suggests an artist that is willing to explore.
