Album Review: Richard Thompson -Electric

Feb 19, 1:48pm 2 U I Bestow
Album Review: Richard Thompson -Electric 'Electric' is the new album from folk legend Richard Thompson and it's a damn good listen with some excellent tunes of the highest quality. After a serious career spanning decades it must be a challenge to produce an album people want to listen to and buy. In the case of 'Electric', Richard Thompson gathered a bunch of quality musicians; drummer Michael Jerome and bassist Taras Prodaniuk, backing vocalists of the caliber of Alison Krauss and Siobhan Maher Kennedy and a renowned producer; [...]

Angel Snow - S/T

Aug 14, 2012, 12:45pm Direct Current
Angel Snow performs "Coals and Water"
Chance meetings can mean the world to a young songwriter. Just ask Georgia-born, Nashville-based songstress Angel Snow . When she happened to meet Allison Krauss at a friend's house, Snow made sure Krauss left with a copy of her CD. Taken with what she heard, Krauss suggested songwriting session with her brother -- and acclaimed instrumentalist -- Viktor. The result? Two years of collaborations resulting in not only three songs Allison chose for her own Paper Airplanes album as well as a batch of inspired tracks for Snow's own self-titled LP due October [...]

A History of Country Vol. 19: 1996-99

Aug 7, 2012, 10:16pm Any Major Dude With Half A Heart
A History of Country Vol. 19: 1996-99 The invention of country-pop, as spearheaded by the likes of Shania Twain, has proven to be a sustainable commercial, though artistically not harmless, proposition. Bland eye-candy singers, their vocals auto-tuned, guitar strapped on and sold as country. The inarguably talented Taylor Swift reportedly asked to be marketed as a country singer not because her music has its roots embedded firmly in that genre, but because such a claim would deliver an audience. Many teenagers today may describe themselves as country fans, but they don’t mean any of the many Hanks or George Jones, but Swift and Carrie Underwood. [...]

Video: Robert Plant & The Band Of Joy – Gallows Pole

Jul 6, 2012, 10:00am Hidden Track
Video: Robert Plant & The Band Of Joy – Gallows Pole There's no denying that Robert Plant will always be best known as the oft-shirtless singer for Led Zeppelin. In recent years though, Plant has turned his attention from bombastic arena-sized rock to the more subtle sounds of American roots music, first pairing with Alison Krauss, and more recently assembling an impressive group of roots musicians - Patty Griffin, Buddy Miller, Darrell Scott, Byron House and Marco Giovino - to form The Band Of Joy. On July 10, Plant & The Band Of Joy's February 9, 2011 show from the Nashville War Memorial will be released on [...]

A History of Country Vol. 18: 1990-95

May 30, 2012, 10:22pm Any Major Dude With Half A Heart
A History of Country Vol. 18: 1990-95 Country music enjoyed a commercial boomed in the 1900s, in particular that strand spearheaded by George Strait and Ricky Skaggs. Superstars such Alan Jackson and Vince Gill would give them credit for their success, as would the biggest star of them all: Garth Brooks. Clean cut and black cowboy-hatted, the Oklahoma native sold 12 million copies of his first three albums and more than 100 million up to his semi-retirement in 2001. He was the first country star to enter the Billboard album charts at #1, with 1991’s Ropin’ The Wind . His extravagant concerts filled stadiums. Country had [...]

Saved! Vol. 3

Apr 4, 2012, 7:12pm Any Major Dude With Half A Heart
Saved! Vol. 3 With Easter approaching, here's a third mix of songs that relate in some way or another to the Christian faith, following the Saved! 1 and Saved! 2 mixes. The first drew from verious ages and genres of music, the second comprised soul musicians doing God music. This lot comes from rock, folk, country and indie backgrounds. Some artists featured here are devout believers, some are sceptics, some are people one wouldn't necessarily have down as being even remotely religious (Cave, Waits). Most are original songs, a few are covers (for example, Wilco covers Woody [...]

Video: Town Hall – Didn’t Leave Nobody But the Baby (Emmylou Harris, Alison Krauss, & Gillian Welch cover)

Mar 20, 2012, 12:48pm The Ruckus
Video: Town Hall – Didn’t Leave Nobody But the Baby (Emmylou Harris, Alison Krauss, & Gillian Welch cover) Here's another cover from our friends Town Hall ( FB | T ). This time they're folking things up with "Didn't Leave Nobody But the Baby," a tune originally recorded by holy trinity Emmylou Harris, Alison Krauss, & Gillian Welch back in 2000 for the film O Brother, Where Art Thou? . Town Hall's rendition is completely gorgeous; their signature harmonies provide the perfect foundation for Phoebe Ryan's darling vocals to shine through, and Jesse Kranzler's banjo adds a brilliant touch of charm to the traditional Appalachian gospel arrangement.

Alison Krauss/Bad Company: “Oh, Atlanta”

Alison Krauss/Bad Company: “Oh, Atlanta” Alison thinks wistfully about the last time she listened to Bad Company's album, "Straight Shooter." Alison Krauss Bad Company For this week's Cover Friday, we have one of the unlikeliest of combinations, one which I didn't even see coming, to be honest: modern-day bluegrass star Alison Krauss taking on a song by classic rock standbys, Bad Company. Fact is, she recorded her version of "Oh Atlanta" 17 years ago - but made it such a quintessentially bluegrass-y song that I had no idea [...]
