Indie Folk Americana Canadiana 101 - Vol. 13
This week features tunes from Chris King and the Gutterballs, Declan O’Donovan, Lisa Bastoni, Kris Ulrich, and more.
Album picks and reviews in ten words for the roots rock/indie folk/singer-songwriter scene.
Chris King and the Gutterballs - Goin’ On My Own Sounds as if from an earlier era. Stunning guitar performance.
Declan O’Donovan - Let It Rain Light vocal cuts through the deep band like a knife.
Lisa Bastoni - Waxwing What a tight band. The clavinet! Perfect arrangement, breezy vocals.
Kris Ulrich - Friends on the Internet A measured, restrained song. Details really sing in this one.
Jesse Fox - Second Life So much intention. Each instrument gets its moment. Strong song.
Kyle Joshua Trask - Borrow Some Fuses Big punches work really well with the hammond organ glue.
John Moreland - Gentle Violence Articulate, vulnerable, and cutting. Part of a must-listen record.
