#3 - Mylow - by Chip Robinson If such a thing existed, Chip Robinson would be the hands-down winner of the Americana Comeback of the Year Award. Robinson came onto the scene in the 1990's as the front man of The Backsliders, an alt-country outfit out of Raleigh, NC. The group released two studio albums and a live EP before disbanding in 2000. After that, Robinson disappeared for the better part of a decade only to resurface earlier this year with the deeply personal [...]
If you're like me, you were a bit disappointed with the latest Jakob Dylan album. If you're like me, you're wishing Jakob Dylan would get back to that vintage alt country sound he had with the Wallflowers. If you're like me, you're really glad Chip Robinson is putting out his first album in over a decade. Some things you just need the old school for to get it done right.

We had quite a fine day of music at WDVX earlier today when Kasey Anderson (top) and Chip Robinson (bottom) joined us for a Blue Plate Special. Both artists have new records out on Kasey's Red River Records label, and I spoke about each of them briefly last week . Both are deeply personal albums that tell a full story from beginning to end. In Kasey's case, Nowhere Nights tells of his departures from a physical place and space of mind while burning [...]
Monday is going to be a big day on the WDVX Blue Plate Special , and I wanted to give everyone enough of a heads up that you'll have time to plan accordingly.

The Blue Plate Special will be aired live Monday at Noon (Eastern) on WDVX's website . If you want to know more [...]
Full disclosure: I'm putting this record out on my label, Red River Records . I wanted to mention that first to ensure that you're aware we're not trying to pull a fast one on you here. I also wanted to mention it because it's relevant to this review. I started Red River Records because of this record. Being burnt out on letting other people be responsible for my success or failure, my intent was simply to put out my own records - and only my own records - for the forseeable future. The best [...]
As Charles Durning's character Henry Larson says in Home for the Holidays (perhaps the greatest holiday film of all time), "Opinions are like assholes. Everybody's got one and everyone thinks everyone else's stinks." After sifting through a shitload of opinions (pun totally intended!) and lists over the last month or so, I've come to believe that truer words were never spoken. So, with that in mind, here are ten songs I loved in 2009 and five I think you'll love in 2010. 01. Kings of Leon - "Use Somebody" (from [...]
