Mark Eitzel “Hey, Mr FerryMan” (Decor Records 2017)

March 21, 2017 Keith Hargreaves 0
Eitzel is an arresting cove. A lounge room crooner with impeccable Americana credentials and instincts. Beyond that an entertaining, erudite man with much to say and a lot to share. This album marks a massive up […]

Ryan Adams “Prisoner” (Virgin/EMI 2017)

March 20, 2017 Keith Hargreaves 1
A comeback, break up album – what could be better for the record buying Americana fan? Ryan Adams, the quintessential wounded troubadour, back ‘on form’ with a searing examination of a highly personal life event. Surely this […]

Campbell Woods “Oxford Street” (Independent, 2017)

March 20, 2017 Jonathan Aird 0
Oxford Street, in this case, is not the glitzy miles long street of vast temples of consumerism, awash with gee-gaws and superficially attractive but ultimately empty and worthless baubles. No, this is an Oxford Street of […]

Drew Holcomb And The Neighbors “Souvenir” (Magnolia Music 2017)

March 19, 2017 Michael Farley 0
The definition of country music or indeed Americana varies immensely with conflicting views everywhere. However, if your view is that such music should be about real subjects, unpolished and delivered with passion and sincerity then you […]

Rachel Baiman “Shame” (Free Dirt, 2017)

March 18, 2017 Muff Fitzgerald 0
It’s been a while since Shirley and her illustrious Company castigated us (rather unjustly) for our collective inability, or flat refusal, to dance, declaring this to be a damn Shame, Shame, Shame. Anyone missing such admonishment […]

Interview: Adam Levy on the Honeydogs celebrated return

February 23, 2026 0
Experiencing a rebirth with Algebra for Broken Hearts, the St. Paul, Minnesota band’s twelfth album on Julian Records (2025), is crucial language, one voicing an undersung American existence. Like the novel, I Cheerfully Refuse by Leif […]

The banjo is a glorious instrument that can do a lot of ill in the wrong hands. It is not easy to proudly, confidently pluck out some hot licks and really hard to play it with […]

Behind the Songs: Polite Company “Please Go Wild”

Red River Dialect announce UK dates

Red River Dialect describe themselves on their site as “a six strong band of human animals, brewing a lightly carbonated folk-rock from the psycho-spiritual malt of David Morris’ songwriting”.  We rather liked their new record, which […]

Interview: Jonathan Bernstein on Justin Townes Earle, addiction, and the music that remains

February 9, 2026 0
