Well that’s it from us for this week, Fridays have basically become the most exciting day of the week because you get a new episode of Severance. It’s given us some ideas for our writing team, if we’re being honest. We leave you dear reader with another new song from the forthcoming new album by Alison Krauss & Union Station. Out March 28th on Down The Road Records, the forthcoming “Arcadia” LP is a set of ten songs that are described as “transcending time, reveal beautiful and tragic truths, and reaffirm why the group remains one of the most influential, widely celebrated acts of the past four decades”. Arriving on the heels of ‘Looks Like The End Of The Road’, ‘Granite Mills’ is a traditional song that tells a dire and fatal tale, showcasing the gripping vocal talents of brand new band member Russell Moore.
“Jerry, Ron, Barry and I all met when Dan Tyminski left the band, and Jerry asked me, ‘What do you think?’ I said, ‘Russell Moore,’ and they all said, ‘Absolutely!’ I couldn’t believe it when we went into the studio and his voice came through the speakers,” says Alison Krauss. “He just stands there and sings with his hands in his pockets, and he kills it. The first song he did was ‘Granite Mills’ and about 10 minutes in, Ron was covering his mouth because he started giggling. Russell came in and inspired us all.”
Take care everyone, don’t forget Palestine and keep fighting the fascists. See you next week.
I refuse to be severed…
or am I already…??
