Album Reviews
Zoe Boekbinder -- Wildflower
Zoe Boekbinder achieves stunning clarity on Wildflower, an exploration of ephemeral beauty and facing life's ups and downs with a willingness to work through anything.
Garreson -- Monte
Garreson pays tribute to his grandfather on his debut album Monte. Come for the '70s-tinted folk, stay for Garreson's buttery barroom baritone and divine tenor.
MORGXN - Heartland: Part I
MORGXN takes a country turn on his outstanding album Heartland: Part I. Bee Delores guides us through this "wallop" of a meditation on pain and belonging in rural America.
Shamir -- Ten
Shamir dazzles with his album Ten, a true reckoning of where one has arrived in life – and where you want to be going.
Kennedy Shaw -- With Love, From NJ
On her EP With Love, From NJ, Kennedy Shaw teasingly drags a foot across the line in the sand between indie pop and country music and erases it completely.
Bryan Ruby -- Growing Season
Bryan Ruby illustrates the fine storyteller he's turning into this jewel box of an EP, Growing Season.
