Americana UK Deputy Editor Jon Aird has a daily listen to the best new americana tracks

Tracks

Jefferson Airplane “Hey Fredrick” – Listen

October 30, 2020 Jonathan Aird 0
It is rather hard to believe that this song is fifty one years old, and rather harder to believe that the great ass-kicking Grace Slick is eighty one today.  She’s the kind of person who’d say […]

Nightsong “The Spell” – Listen

October 30, 2020 Jonathan Aird 0
Never believe that we will not dare the most blatant cliché, we are Americana UK and we know no fear.  Well, there’s spiders of course, oh, and big poisonous snakes.  And small poisonous snakes.  And Hollyhocks.  […]

Annie Dressner “Midnight Bus” – Listen

October 29, 2020 Jonathan Aird 0
  Today’s new song comes from Annie Dressner’s latest album ‘Coffee At the Corner Bar‘ which was released last month.  You’d never know it from the full sound but it’s a lockdown album – Annie Dressner […]

Malcolm MacWatt “The Widow And The Cruel Sea” – Listen

October 27, 2020 Jonathan Aird 2
Skail – it’s an old Scots word meaning to disperse, scatter and sail over water, it’s also the title of Malcom MacWatt’s new EP, which contains songs of the emigrant links between Scotland and America.  ‘The […]

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

Video Interview: Rodney Crowell on why “Then Again” is better late than never

July 2, 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

June 24, 2026 1

Album Reviews

Dave Hause “Drive It Like It’s Stolen”

May 9, 2023 0
The emotional depth of the songs shines on the quieter songs but vanishes behind bluster a bit too often. Dave Hause calls his music “post-apocalyptic Americana.” On opening song, ‘Cheap Seats (New Years Day, NYC, 2042)’ […]

Track Premiere: Sarah Lee Langford and Will Stewart “Staring At The Sun”

November 3, 2022 0
The album ‘Bad Luck and Love‘ sees Birmingham Alabama singer-songwriters Sarah Lee Langford and Will Stewart join forces to produce music that is redolent of the whisky-soaked honkytonk and the downtone rough and ready blues bar.  […]
