We rarely review country albums but when it comes to Sturgill Simpson we will gladly make an exception. The seventh album by the Kentucky native is actually a more traditional country album than anyone hears nowadays. Simpson describes the piece as “traditional country, bluegrass and mountain music, including gospel and a cappella.” We describe it […]

The soulful, relaxed overall mood […]

The Gingerbread House Foy Vance recently released his third album with the illustrious Ginger Bread Man label that was created by Ed Sheeran back in 2015. ‘Signs of Life’ is a booming and blossoming lyrically driven powder keg that explodes from the outside in.

SOMOH – “Anything” Vocals. Shoe gazey guitars. A simple premise, but when done correctly, this combination makes our melancholy hearts swoon.
