Johnny Blue Skies & the Dark Clouds, Mutiny After Midnight
Capturing the perpetual boogie that makes his live show so impressive, Sturgill Simpson’s latest LP throws the throttle down, turns the choogle up, and stares the cold world dead in the eyes.
The Monochrome Set, Lotus Bridge
Poised, exotic, and engaging from start to finish, the English jangle-pop outfit’s unexpected delight of a 17th studio album is a magical soundtrack for this uncertain spring.
Ella Langley, Dandelion
The pop-country songwriter understands the human weight of the American South’s emotionally rich tableau of high-speed heartbreak and low-light bars, as demonstrated on a resilient second album.
