Evan Myall “Evan Myall” (Royal Okie Records 2020)

June 3, 2020 Keith Hargreaves 0
There’s no getting away from the influences that hang over this record. Opening track ‘Supernatural’ is ‘Dear Prudence’ with added Oasis strings but is a jaunty chamber pop song nonetheless. And it serves as a perfect introduction […]

Frank Turner “Live In Newcastle” (Xtra Mile Recordings/Polydor Records, 2020)

June 3, 2020 Diccon Johnston 1
Frank Turner operates in that most ambiguous of roles, the singer-songwriter, with his output being classified variously from punk to folk. This live-work reveals that this is not entirely accurate, he is foremost an entertainer – […]

The Mammals “Nonet” (Soundly, 2020)

June 3, 2020 Lyndon Bolton 0
‘Nonet’ is compelling listening for these locked down times. In their blend of classic folk and Americana The Mammals, Mike Merenda and Ruth Ungar plus an ensemble of seven, ask searching questions about our environment and […]

Wu Fei and Abigail Washburn “Wu Fei and Abigail Washburn” (Smithsonian Folkways, 2020)

June 1, 2020 Jonathan Aird 0
Abagail Washburn doesn’t leave all the banjo experimentation to her husband Bela Fleck, who has produced this new album. Where Bela has been looking across the Atlantic to the banjo’s origins in Africa, Abigail Washburn has […]

Muzz “Muzz” (Matador Records, 2020)

June 1, 2020 Lyndon Bolton 0
Not just the band’s name, ‘Muzz’ perfectly describes their sound. Fortunately that was the intention according to producer and multi-instrumentalist Josh Kaufman who wanted to describe the texture of the group’s sound without being pinned to […]

Whiskey Treaty Roadshow “Kept Rising”

Whiskey Treaty Roadshow proves that Democracy is strongest when it is diverse. It’s hard to pin down Whiskey Treaty Roadshow. They are all over the map, stylistically, and as a collective. Over the course of more […]

Max Subar “Anything Could Be”

Interview: Hank Alrich and his sonic explorations
