Lisa Biales
Lisa Biales is a new name to me, but this Ohio native has been around on the music scene for a while, with several self-released albums to her name. Covering ground that includes jazz, blues, swing and country, this new album was recorded in Georgiaunder the guiding hand of The Georgia Songbird, E G Kight. Lisa plays a mighty fine guitar…

Six Mile Grove - Secret Life in a Quiet Town
Welcome back to Six Mile Grove, the Minnesota band that makes a virtue out of staying put in the place they come from. This is the sixth album from these guys – maybe the third that I’ve heard – and I’ve been impressed in the past by the integrity that they exude. They have soulfulness to their work which largely springs from the…

Gig review: Cousti in Caithness
A Sunday afternoon trip to catch Cousti at the end of their Caithness weekend; there’s not been too many appearances from the whole band in recent months but the memory is strong of how good they were at Belladrum last summer, so it’s well worth a trip north through the sun and snow showers for a session in The…

Kenny Young Band: Simple Things
The Kenny Young Band hail from New Jersey and play countrified rock with a distinctive Southern twist. An unlikely cover of Walk Away Renee hints at a history of earning a crust playing crowd pleasers and, if this example is anything to go by, they…

Record of the week: Matt Harlan - Bow and Be Simple
Houston-based Matt Harlan made quite an impact with his first album, Tips and Compliments. Bow and Be Simple, mostly recorded in a single day with a Danish band led by M C Hansen, should cement his reputation as a substantial songwriter. There’s a fluid self- confidence to his writing…

Album of the week: Nels Andrews - Scrimshaw
Already released in the Netherlands, Scrimshaw has shot straight to the top of the EuroAmericana chart, and here’s why: on the strength of just two studio albums (Sunday Shoes from 2001 and Off-Track Betting from 2008), Nels Andrews has a devoted following who are delighted to find that this new album is his best…

Steve Black: All The Best/Alan West: The Way It Is
Old friends and collaborators, Steve Black and Alan West are two English country musicians with strong American connections; heading to Nashville together, they have made two albums that are enriched by the skills of a bunch of Nashville players, with the wonderful Thomm Jutz at the centre of things.
Steve Black is above all a…

Adam Klein (recording as Lassine Kouyate): Dugu Wolo
Adam Klein’s most recent solo album, Wounded Electric Youth, was very well received here on Flyinshoes, and now he’s back with something completely different. Adam is based in Athens, Georgia, but a Peace Corps stint in Mali a decade or so ago brought him strong connections to the country, and a huge…

Tom Fairnie: Banishment/As Eden Lay In Darkness
Tom Fairnie is an Edinburgh-based poet/singer/songwriter with a rich background of performance and recorded collaborations with other poets and musicians. There are a couple of previous “solo” recordings but these two new discs demonstrate that the man is an inate collaborator – there must…
