I had big plans to share some thoughts about my conflicted love for America this year on the anniversary of our birth as a nation. But looking in the archives, I see I've written it before: both last year, when we mused upon the complexity of patriotism in a modern age, and in our first year, at a time when our national discourse was increasingly polarized by the impending presidential election. Our Single Song Sunday from last year remains live, and I encourage you to head back into the archives for 10 [...]

Martha Wainwright: Laurel & Hardy [ Purchase ] Rufus Wainwright: April Fools [ Purchase ] Loudon Wainwright III and Kate McGarrigle were great folk singers in their own right.

Their children, Rufus and Martha, have become talented musicians on their own. Songwriting is obviously in their blood. [...]

As I noted earlier this week, we don't hold with ordered lists at year's end, preferring instead to recognize the diversity of greatness we hear and rediscover as part of an ongoing process. But in keeping with our ongoing mandate to bring you our subjective best in folk and acoustic coverage, in the hopes that you might pursue our recommendations and passalongs to support those artists directly, it seems fair to note which songs still remain high on our playlist, echoing through our head long after we introduced you to them through the pages of this blog.

Yet another prodigal return has turned up a backlog of new music, and this time, much of it fits neatly with previously posted features. Too, returning from two weeks of family vacation has meant a triumphant return to my own ever-growing collection, and, as often is the case, the distance which hiatus brings has lent new meaning to a few tunes collected a while back, yet never truly appreciated until I happened on them through shuffle. So here's yet another set of tunes that I'd have posted way back when, if I knew [...]
