Nikki Lane - All or Nothin' - New West - Roots / Pop - 06-05-14 (NL: 29-01-15)

All or nothing? Nikki Lane chooses all. As in both kinds of music, country and western – and country rock and pop; as in upbeat and downbeat; as in cowboy shirts and lacy shorts; as in outlaw and defiant modern.
Sydney Morning Herald

Maar ook de Nederlandse pers puts some yabba's on the barbie

Lane is net zo recht voor zijn raap als collega Lucinda Williams, maar dan wulpser.
Hester Carvalho, NRC

en:
... Beter is het de liedjes van Lane, die ze schreef met en liet produceren door Dan Auerbach van The Black Keys, even onberedeneerd door te laten denderen; ze verdienen het.
Robert van Gijssel, De Volkskrant

Dat hij in zijn jeugd veel naar Springsteen heeft geluisterd lijkt me wel duidelijk als je naar onderstaand filmpje hebt geluisterd. Maar met zo'n nummer kan ik me er geen seconde druk om maken. Zijn album Parish Lines is een album vol ruwe bolster blanke pit met af en toe een geweldige ballad zoals Curve Lounge. Rod Melancon is de naam.

David Corley - Available Light - Continental Song City - Roots / Blues - 18-11-14 (NL:16-02-15)

Available Light is one of those rare albums which arrives fully formed, as though Corley has recorded dozens of albums we just haven’t had the opportunity to hear, this being the best of the bunch.

Preserving and extending the contemplative vibe of her debut, Pratt creates a series of dream-like miniatures that feel intimate and mystical-fantastical at the same time.

Pas dit jaar ontdekt. Rich Hopkins timmert al meer dan 25 jaar aan de weg met zijn Luminarios en is vreemd genoeg in Duitsland erg populair. Een Duits label gaf hem vorig jaar ook de kans het prachtige album Tombstone te maken. Na deze op Spotify gehoord te hebben heb ik direct ook de albums Buried Treasures en Devolver besteld. Van Devolver hieronder het fenomenale Tender Mercies.

Mijn kennismaking met dit genre leek me een aardige aanleiding om weer eens wat te posten in dit topic. Onderstaand nummer van The Lancaster Orchestra vind ik eerder folk/pop. Het genre is breed zal ik maar zeggen en ik heb het wel leren kennen via Alt.Country. Het doet me denken aan een acoustische versie van Elbow, een band die ik hoog heb zitten. Niet heel verrassend maar wel fraai:

En nog 1tje die ik heb leren via de site Alt. country en die nog geen vermelding op Musicmeter heeft. Niet raar want dit nummer is afkomstig van zijn debuutcd. Ik vind het schitterend, mooi gezongen, mooi gespeeld en een heel fijne opbouw

Ben bezig deze toe te voegen. (Nog) afgekeurd op de hoes...
Gisteren 2x beluisterd. Moet zeggen dat er enkele hele mooie songs op staan. Doet me af en toe denken aan Jason Isbell's laatste, Southeastern

Wink Burcham "Liquor Store" - YouTube

Na John Moreland nog iemand uit Tulsa, Oklahoma: Wink Burcham:

...this Tulsa, Oklahoma artist has a knack for writing witty, heartfelt lyrics that immediately pull the listener into his stories, ala John Prine, Townes Van Zandt, or John Lee Hooker. The music easily slips between old-fashioned country, grass-roots folk, and Piedmont-style blues and is an important part of the New Tulsa Sound movement

Helemaal mee eens ! De producer - Andrija Tokic - kennen we verder van Benjamin Booker, Hurray for the Riff Raff & The Alabama Shakes.

Banditos - Banditos - Bloodshot - Roots / Rock - 02-05-15



Three vocalists, a wicked guitarist who also plays pedal steel, a banjo, an upright bass and a hot-footed drummer guarantee that every song they play is stuffed with crazy rhythms and melodic energy.
NPR Music



If you think Alabama Shakes is too restrained and polished (which you should), this is the band for you..

The Deslondes - The Deslondes - New West - Roots / Rock - 09-06-15



NPR's First Listen wrote:

Sam Doores and Riley Downing could've gone the troubadour route, singing solitary songs and traveling alone, unencumbered. The two singer-songwriters met at Woodyfest, after all, the annual celebration of Woody Guthrie. Doores had already taken to heart Guthrie's self-mythologizing in Bound For Glory and tried to retrace some of his hero's nomadic, train-hopping steps. But Downing and Doores, along with Cameron Snyder, Dan Cutler and John James Tourville, would rather do their rambling collectively, as The Deslondes.

When they banded together in New Orleans, the fivesome was profoundly influenced by the Big Easy's live music scene. There they became that most cooperative of outfits: the down-home dance band, whose performances revolve around achieving the right vibe and whose success is measured by a capacity to draw bodies onto the dance floor.



Country music is ostensibly what The Deslondes are playing on their self-titled New West debut (due out June 9), but it's country that seems like it never parted ways with Guthrie's populist strains of folk, or felt threatened by rock 'n' roll's youthful ruckus. Like their sometime tourmate, Alynda Lee Segarra of Hurray For the Riff Raff, the Deslondes are knowledgeable about multiple streams of American roots music. Downing even specifies in the band's bio that the traffic jam-themed rockabilly number "Less Honkin', More Tonkin'" was inspired not just by George Jones recordings in general, but Jones' early Starday sides, specifically.

But fastidious revivalists The Deslondes are not. Their tradition-tweaking testimonies to restless inclinations and precarious attachments shamble and shuffle, swing and bop, slip and slide, straining familiar forms at the seams, yielding something energized, elegant and new. Fitting then, that the album opens with Downing drawling, "I never knew all the things that I could do. No one told me when I was young. But now that I know, I'm raring to go."

Ja een 8! O nee, cijfers geven doen we hier niet meer. Toch grappig Vento. Ik kan me herinneren dat ik een paar jaar geleden hier een filmpje plaatste van Sam Doores & the Tumbleweeds. Dat vond je maar niks. Kan natuurlijk, maar weet je waar Sam Doores en die Fumbleweeds (zoals jij ze noemde) twee jaar geleden hun naam veranderden? Juist ja, the Deslondes. Misschien dat het liedje je niet lag, dat zal het wel zijn

avatar van Jasper
Twee talenten die ik zeker in de gaten ga houden de komende jaren:

Mark Mueller - Idaho Miles




Marlon Williams - Portrait of a Man


Die laatste is ook acteur, dat is wel te zien hier. Schrijft z'n eigen liedjes, maar dit is een cover van Screamin' Jay Hawkins.

The Yawpers - American Man - Bloodshot - 30-10-15




If the Yawpers are trying to make sense of the soul of America in the 21st century, their mind/body balance makes for some powerfully satisfying music, and American Man is an impressive debut from a band that appears to have some very serious potential.

ALLE 13 GOED 2015 - FOLK / AMERICANA / ROOTS
https://i.guim.co.uk/img/static/sys-images/Guardian/Pix/pictures/2015/3/11/1426099535955/dad4b1be-0897-4097-84f5-26201902f922-1020x612.jpeg?w=1225&q=85&auto=format&sharp=10&s=d4197af30ef6644d77c668c7dfb38716




01. Sam Lee & Friends - The Fade in Time - The Nest Collective - 16-03-15
      MuMe: 5 / 4,10
The most emotional songs are bravely straightforward but quite unexpected.... Surely one of the albums of the year.
The Guardian



02. James McMurtry - Complicated Game - Blue Rose - 24-02-15
      MuMe: 19 / 3,94
He's a storyteller with a literary knack for using detail and narrative to draw complex, relatable characters, and his storytelling finesse has never been more evident than it is here.
Slant Music



03. Jason Isbell - Something More Than Free - Southeastern - 17-07-15
      MuMe: 84 / 3,97
Something More Than Free is like a novel set to music, each of its 11 songs a separate chapter that, when absorbed in full, leave you with the same kind of psychic shift a good book sets into motion.
Blurt



04. Punch Brothers - The Phosphorescent Blues - Nonesuch - 23-01-15
      MuMe: 13 / 3,61
Like every Punch Brothers album, The Phosphorescent Blues is defined by technical chops. But its lyrical focus offers a vibrant edge over its predecessors.
Paste



05. John Moreland - High on Tulsa Heat - Old Omen - 21-04-15
      MuMe: 21 / 4,07
Whether couched in the hush of his delicate acoustic finger-picking or amped up with a bit of tempo and electricity, sooner or later, his words demand attention.
American Songwriter



06. Joan Shelley - Over and Even - No Quarter - 04-09-15
      MuMe: 4 / 4,00
This tension between plain old songs and structures and an interest in omitting details and accessorizing sounds enlivens Over and Even from start to finish. Shelley started with folk and then pushed away from it, to Electric Ursa’s spectral and soft version of roots-rock. But now in the middle, where the songs are direct but bent just so, she’s more compelling than she’s ever been.
Pitchfork



07. Chris Stapleton - Traveller - Universal Nashville - 04-05-15
      MuMe: 21 / 4,09
At the core of Stapletonmania is the fact that Traveller, his first album as a solo artist, is a downright great collection of songs that are carried in dazzling fashion by Stapleton’s husky, soulful voice.
The Guardian



08. Dave Rawlings Machine - Nashville Obsolete - Acony - 18-09-15
      MuMe: 21 / 3,92
There is so much on Nashville Obsolete that impresses, but what lingers longest is rare and persuasive ability to tap into the ageless mythos of true American folk.
Uncut



09. Rhiannon Giddens - Tomorrow Is My Turn - Nonesuch - 10-02-15
      MuMe: 34 / 3,72
The combination of Burnette’s characteristically genuine, acoustic based production, Giddens’ sumptuous voice and a conceptual set list that never feels musty, yields a wonderful album whose restrained pleasures reveal themselves gradually over repeated playings.
American Songwriter






10. Daniel Romano - If I've Only One Time Askin' - New West - 31-07-15
      MuMe: 44 / 3,86
Like all great Country records, Romano’s is cathartic--your heart aches for him and with him--and it is this emotive sway that makes the record a success.
The Line of Best Fit



11. Gretchen Peters - Blackbirds - Proper - 09-02-15
      MuMe: 28 / 3,83
Creating a 21st-century album that is still able to deal in an original and touching way with the big and interesting subjects of love and death is a trick that many folk and country musicians try to pull off and few achieve, especially in the impressive way that Gretchen Peters does with her 2015 album Blackbirds.
The Telegraph (UK)



12. Larry Campbell & Teresa Williams - Larry Campbell & Teresa Williams - Red House - 23-06-15
      MuMe: 5 / 4,30
Hearing this collection, countless Americana fans will understandably wonder why we have waited so long for this duo to commit themselves to record.PopMatters



13. American Aquarium - Wolves - Last Chance - 03-02-15
      MuMe: 12 / 3,45
Wolves is an album that still finds Barham and American Aquarium doing a lot of staring out at the horizon, sometimes near and sometimes far. But on this record, it’s a different horizon, one that’s richer and perhaps just a bit closer to the promised land.

"Maak kennis met folk, americana, roots en beoordeel".

Mooie muziek komt hier voorbij. Een intigrerend genre. Vooral iets voor de zomer, een zwoele avond in weken lang aanhoudende hitte.
Een kampvuur, en dan deze muziek.
Maar wel mooi dit op 1 januari te ontdekken. Fijn topic

Dit topic is zo volgeplempt met links van video's en muziekbestanden dat er geen doorkomen meer aan is. Maar ja, dat is bekend bij Vento Vivimus en ook een van de redenen om dit topic links te laten liggen....
