Son of the Velvet Rat just keep getting better, and on Ghost Ranch, they are joined by several special guests, including Jolie Holland and Marc Ribot, to deliver what is unquestionably an album of the year.
Solitary Company, the third album from Joshua Tree-based duo Son of the Velvet Rat, is redolent of the stark beauty of their Mojave home. Their finest yet; an album of the year.
Son of the Velvet Rat is a Joshua Tree-based husband and wife duo. Dorado, their sixth album, is a haunting and soulful offering which was produced by Joe Henry….for those who like their music steeped in the parched sand, dry rocks, forbidding cacti and mournful night winds.
