East Nashville Vol.3 More Music From The Other Side

http://redbeetrecords.com/

I don't know what the general opinion of sampler records is but I've always had a bit of a thing for them. It's a pig in a poke, of course, even if you know some of the names on the track listing, but the joy that comes when even one of those new names is a revelation makes the whole thing worthwhile.

Well Red Beet Records claim that there's… Continue

Taylor Rorrer: Playing Poole

http://www.flyincloudrecords.com

For those who don't know, Taylor Rorrer is the great, great nephew of Posey Rorrer who famously played with Charlie Poole in the North Carolina Ramblers between the wars. Taylor himself has worked his way through the ranks of the family band, The Hungry Hash House Ramblers, until here he is fronting his own record.

This is, actually, an… Continue

Joseph Parsons: Heavens Above

http://josephparsons.com

Twenty-odd years into his singer-songwriter career, never quite bursting on to any mass market radar screens yet still plugging away, Joseph Parsons' most recent studio album is an interesting piece of work. Supported by a core band and an extensive array of guest appearances, Joseph's singer-songwriter material is fleshed out by some excellent… Continue

The Quebe Sisters Band: Timeless

www.quebesistersband.com

The Quebe Sisters (say Kway-Be)are three peas out of the same pod, playing their fiddles perfectly together and perfectly in harmony in a mid 20th century style - western swing dance band to be more precise. With the support of Joey MacKenzie on guitar (in fact, he's a fiddler too and taught the girls to play) and Drew Phelps on double bass, they… Continue

Eric Brace and Last Train Home: Six Songs

http://redbeetrecords.com

Jump up and down and cry Hosannah!, what a red letter day to have this album drop in my lap. If you know Last Train Home already I'm sure you'll need no encouraging to grab this tidying up operation: 'Six Songs' is twenty five minutes worth of music featured in their live sets but never previously recorded. This is broader than 'Americana'; this is popular… Continue

The Orbitsuns: First Drink of the Day

http://www.orbitsuns.com/

Detroit's own Orbitsuns, outlaw country from the depths of Motor City, are a band custom built for saturday night bars and booze fueled summer festival nights. Coming over like a bunch of rebels without a home to go to, they'll breeze into town, all attitude and energy, and give their all to blast the cobwebs off our humdrum lives.

Fronted… Continue

Roy Schneider: Erleichda

www.RoySchneider.com

Roy Schneider is another of those fine singer/songwriters who lurk in the long grass beyond the reach of major label interest just waiting for patient hunters of fine music to find him. Well, that's not quite fair; he's been working hard to make the world aware of this new album (pronounced Er Like Duh) and is just embarking on a huge tour across the… Continue
