‘Lucky’ is a must-hear album for lovers of genuine country music, the kind that’s simple, charming, and evocative.

Superbly wrought by the Kenny George Band,' The Silent Saint' is wonderful, rife with imminence, warmth, emotional bruises, and fondness.

Originally from the Bay area, Mia and Jonah are an indie folk duo who will drop a new album, 'Spin as One,' in late September 2018.

'Omega' by C-Wired is delightful, full of dazzling color and smoothly textured harmonics.

Actually, the title of the album says it all: It don’t get better than this.

Alas, 'Liar for a Muse' by Ben DeLaurentis offers little to recommend. The songs feel dragged down by gravity.

Malcolm Holcombe's gritty rootsiness and warm-blooded sincerity shine through gloomy subject matter, frosted with pearly harmony vocals from Iris Dement.

'Red Ghost' reflects tantalizing wisps of nostalgic recollection and the palpable cheerless power of heartache, along with ironic observations on the absurdity of love and life.

'Folk Soul Revival' is yummy, full of Southern grace and charm, as well as heady streams of surging country energy.

With 'Chas Randall,' Randy Forte delivers a strong album of country rock replete with bluesy savors.
