Eric Hisaw: Ghost Stories
Eric Hisaw (pronounced High Saw) has been in the game long enough for one reviewer to describe him as a "journeyman" musician. There's no disrespect in that label, suggesting as it does someone who'll get the job done, and get it done well. After twenty years or so in the business you suspect the possibility of stardom has passed him by, but…

A Farmhouse Christmas: Joey & Rory
Surprised to find they had a winning combination in Joey's voice, Rory's songs and their collective homely charm, this husband and wife team are catching their wave with a set of Christmas songs that invite you to share the vibe of their Tennessee farmhouse home at this time of year. These songs are currently being toured around the States…

Kimmie Rhodes: Miracles on Christmas Day
Originally released twelve months ago, Miracles On Christmas Day is set for re-release this December and there are probably those who buy albums to be dragged out at this time of year, as part of their own personal Christmas traditions. With nine original new songs, Miracles does benefit from avoiding…

The Deadly Gentlemen: Carry Me To Home
Bluegrass like you've never heard it from a predominantly young band playing in a furious blur of energy, enthusiasm and skill. Fronted by Greg Liszt, banjo wizard from Crooked Still, The Deadly Gentlemen play songs that are never straightforward but fizz with energy and invention as they burst off in…

My album of the week: Ally MacLeod - Astor Place
I think this just might be a bit special; the story goes that Ally MacLeod, sometime film-maker, dance teacher and New York City resident, was back home in the Highlands doing some work with Martin Stephenson (sometime Daintee, all-round musical wonder). Discussing their shared love of country music, Martin asked Ally to sing him a song. I suspect he had to pick his jaw up off the floor by the time…

Franc Cinelli : Goodtimes Goodtimes
Born in Rome, raised in London, Franc Cinelli has been working his musical apprenticeship over the last few years, releasing a favourably received album, Glue, back in 2008. I'm writing this whilst Franc plays an album launch party in London, which I think he's playing solo. There's two sides to Franc's music; on…

Graham Robins: The Shipping News
www.grahamrobins.com
So, where has Graham Robins been all our lives? A man of mature years, it is safe to say, this is just his third album in 40-odd years of being a working musician - and it's really very good indeed. Distilling soul, country and jazz, Graham Robins has the voice, the hat and the look to come over as something of a Van Morrison doppelganger. When an artist comes so close to sounding…

My Record of the Week: My Darling Clementine - How Do You Plead?
If, on first listen, a bunch of songs can put a smile on my face and a tear in my eye, then these are the outward signs of a happy recognition that what I'm hearing is: a) my kind of music b) as close to a perfectly realised musical ambition as I'm likely to hear. So it happened on the first hearing of How Do You…
