Live review: Dream Syndicate + The Rain Parade, The Hug & Pint, Glasgow – 11th March 2023

March 16, 2023 Paul Kerr 0
Glasgow’s Hug & Pint might be a cool, hipster like watering hole in the west end but its cramped cellar strained to contain the sold out crowd who had flocked to see this legendary coupling of […]

Doug Paisley “Say What You Like”

March 16, 2023 Keith Hargreaves 0
A disappointing return for Canadian songwriter on new label. Doug Paisley debuted 15 years ago and seemingly just arrived fully formed as a sure-footed troubadour who could be relied upon to produce heartfelt material shrouded in […]

The Nude Party “Rides On”

March 15, 2023 Alan Fitter 0
Possibly more rocky, psych-folk than americana, The Nude Party’s third album sounds as if it was recorded in a time gone by. There’s a band called Big Daddy whose conceit is that they were abducted by […]

Jono Manson “Stars Enough to Guide Me”

March 15, 2023 FredArnold 0
A fine multi-genre album that is a fitting addition to Jono Manson’s body of work. For a guy who has been around the block many times over, Jono Manson exists depressingly under the radar and we […]

March 14, 2023 Peter Churchill 0
Confident third album from Swedish band with a number of high points. ‘The Grief’ is the third album from Swedish band Winhill/Losehill and features twelve new songs from the songwriting duo of Jonas Svennem (composer) and […]

Live Review: Leah Blevins, Rough Trade, Denmark Street, London – 26th June 2026

July 3, 2026 0
Performances don’t get much more intimate when less than 50 people are in the front space of a record shop and the artist is playing unamplified, less than five feet away. In the autumn of 2025, […]

Ryan Bingham and The Texas Gentlemen “They Call Us The Lucky Ones”

July 3, 2026 0

It is sometimes forgotten that Gram Parsons did not enjoy commercial success as a solo artist during his short life, and that it was Emmylou Harris who took his sound to a wider audience with the […]

Interview: Jeff Finlin – the hero who journeys among us

July 1, 2026 0
In 2023, an AUK writer displayed exquisite taste by naming Jeff Finlin as one of the top ten greatest americana artists of all time. Congrats to Jeff, as well as, after all, he did record the […]

Interview: Matt Patershuk writes songs for the small moments we all share

June 24, 2026 1
As an animal lover and caretaker of horses, dogs and cats, the latest album from Canadian singer-songwriter Matt Patershuk certainly caught my attention. Dog Tiger Horses on Red Hen Records (2025) is green as grass, country-folk […]
