Silver Lining “Heart and Mind Alike” (Independent, 2018)

July 23, 2018 Mark Johnson 1

Norwegian Americana? Reviewed in the UK? Why not, Americana is a broad and growing church, and all are welcome. Silver Lining are from Oslo, and have a very gentle approach, producing beautiful music with space and […]

Ruen Brothers “All My Shades Of Blue” (Ramseur, 2018)

July 23, 2018 Tim Merricks 0

Ruen Brothers aka Henry and Rupert Stansall are Scunthorpe’s very own success story. Having been catapulted from boozy ‘Sunny Scunny’ dives to Rick Rubin’s Malibu Shangri La studios they could be forgiven for being a little […]

Steve Tilston “Distant Days” (Riverboat Records, 2018)

July 20, 2018 Kevin Bourke 0

It’s not uncommon these days for more, ahem, ‘mature’, artists to cherry-pick and rework their own back catalogue in a bare-bones style. There can be any number of reasons for them doing so, including, but certainly […]

John Renbourn “Live in Kyoto 1978” (Drag City, 2018)

July 20, 2018 Jonathan Aird 0
