Musically and lyrically, Every Acre is H.C. McEntire’s most complex work yet, at times impressionistic, at others painfully direct, it’s an album you need to immerse yourself in over repeated listens, but the rewards are immense.
North Carolina’s H.C. McEntire announces new album Eno Axis, and shares video for “Time, On Fire”. The album is tipped as the strongest work she has shared yet.
H.C. McEntire has revealed her official music for One Great Thunder taken from her latest album Lionheart. The video was shot while McEntire was in Los Angeles playing solo dates. She’s back in the UK in November with Natalie Prass.
Stripped back to just herself on guitar and vocals and an accompanying guitarist, the HC McEntire we get on stage here is more raw and yet also more pure. Her voice is impeccable and the emotions of her lyrics feel more immediate and defined without the whole band setup.
“Lionheart” stands tall on its own, but it’s also part of the movement of female country artists who are trying to reclaim traditional country music from the clutches of the establishment dominated “bro- country” sound. This album is a step in the right direction.
Our Song of the Day comes from Michael Rank and Stag. Horsehair is his latest album which features the vocals of Heather McEntire (Mount Moriah) and a supporting cast of some of ‘North Carolina’s premier pickers and players’
Mount Moriah are back with a new album. Miracle Temple will be released in March through Merge Records & promises to sport bigger arrangements, louder guitars, bolder vocals, and more soulful rhythms.
This self-titled release captures the timelessness of artists like Neil Young while adding a modern twist to countrified characteristics and songs that have been dragged through their haunting histories to the bleak and yet somehow sepia tinged hopefulness of Mount Moriah’s present.
