Just before his star exploded as a result of his amazing lead vocal on the hit version of “I Am a Man of Constant Sorrow,” which appeared on the soundtrack to the Coen Brothers’ Great Depression farce O Brother, Where Art Thou?, Dan Tyminski recorded his brief but fantastic debut solo album, Carry Me Across the Mountain, while on sabbatical from Union Station. He gets the expected help from Union Station alumni past and present (Alison Krauss, Adam Steffey, Ron Block, and Barry Bales), and also gathers together some of his other favorite players and influences, who just happen to be prominent members of the bluegrass elite (Jerry Douglas, Tony Rice, etc.). It is Tyminski’s gorgeous, graceful, toasty lead vocals, though, that carry the day. As opposed to his full-time combo’s more irreverent, progressive take on the genre, Tyminski explores more traditional bluegrass territory (ballads, mountain songs, spirituals, instrumentals), but through mostly original material, closer to his previous unit, the Lonesome River Band. He chimes in with a trio of his own co-written tunes while offering spotlight contributions from Block (“Be Assured”) and former Union Station member Tim Stafford. And although each song is a highlight, the title track is perhaps the most exciting performance and lays the blueprint for Tyminski’s O Brother contribution. The crack band also whips through a couple old country (“I Dreamed of an Old Love Affair,” “Sunny Side of the Mountain”) and bluegrass (the Louvin Brothers’ “Tiny Broken Heart”) classics with exhilarating, down-homey results. The mood is both elegantly unembellished and joyous, a throwback but wholly pristine and fresh. It is a superb addition to the already strong discographies of both Union Station and the Lonesome River Band, and a lovely little first effort as leader for Tyminski.

Twenty-one years ago, June Tabor and Oysterband got together to record what is now recognised as an English folk-rock classic. It wasn’t exclusively a folk album, though there were some traditional tracks, but rather an eclectic, powerful reworking of anything from Lou Reed to Shane McGowan. Now, at long last, comes the followup that so many of us have been asking for, and it’s no disappointment. The energy is still there, along with the desire to startle and experiment, but so is a new maturity and emotional depth, and even greater variety. The traditional songs include Bonnie Bunch of Roses, in which the stomping backing is never allowed to overshadow Tabor’s no-nonsense storytelling; then there’s a glorious melodeon and fiddle-backed treatment of Fountains Flowing, that song of parting and grief, and there’s delicate, unaccompanied vocal harmony singing on the Scottish lament (When I Was No But) Sweet Sixteen. The contemporary songs range from a fiddle-backed stomp through Dylan’s Seven Curses, through to a thoughtful, gutsy reworking of PJ Harvey’s That Was My Veil, and a pained, acoustic version of Joy Division’s Love Will Tear Us Apart, which features a powerful duet between Tabor and John Jones, who come together again for a very English treatment of the bittersweet Dark End of the Street. This was worth waiting for.

Americana has many different ingredients and Nathan James knows how to mix just the right amounts to create his own signature flavor. ‘What I Believe’ is a showcase of years of experience in self production and songwriting and it is his first album featuring 100% original material. From the opening track ‘You Got to Please Me’ with it’s Bill Withers inspired acoustic rhythm guitar and funky drums featuring tasteful layering of fuzz guitar and B3 organ to the acoustic soul meets spy movie sound track moodiness of ‘Down on the Road’ with classical string arrangements, there are many twists and turns for the listener to behold. ‘Tryin’ to Get Along With Myself’ is a songwriting standout with it’s telling of personal turmoil turned to hope with the start of new day. This song is true Americana with a mixture of gospel changes and country pedal steel inspired slide guitar.

Steven Tyler has filled out the specifics on his long-awaited debut album. We’re All Somebody From Somewhere will arrive on July 15, Tyler said earlier today during an appearance on the Ellen DeGeneres Show.
The veteran Aerosmith frontman produced this 13-track country-flavored solo project with T Bone Burnett, Dan Huff, Marti Fredriksen and Jaren Johnston. The title track will be released in advance of the album on June 24, Tyler added.
“I headed down to Nashville last spring to start working on this project, wrote some kick ass songs with some of Music City’s finest songwriters and now we get to share them with the world on July 15,” Tyler said. “Country music is the new rock ‘n’ roll. It’s not just about porches, dogs and kicking your boots up. It’s a whole lot more. It’s about being real.”
Tyler released his first country single, titled “Love Is Your Name,” back in May 2015. That was followed this past January by “Red White and You,” which was also produced by Huff. The latter song, co-written by Tyler, circled back to the singer’s rock roots by referencing Tom Petty.

Produced by the Coral’s frontman James Skelly in James Skelly’s studio and released by James Skelly’s label, it might be a surprise to hear that Wirral group the Sundowners – who feature two of James Skelly’s family members – bear only a faint sonic resemblance to the work of a certain James Skelly. Some of his psychedelic inclinations do rise to the fore at times – Before the Storm’s driving guitar and spooky keys, for example – but mostly this lot trade in folkier, Fairport Convention, Smoke Fairies and Espers-inspired wistful romance, especially in their haunted harmonies. But all too often, stodgy riffs steer the music down a muddy path instead of guiding it towards some heavenly hippie sanctuary, with the result that the album feels slightly over-long. Nevertheless, for a certain sort of community – one that revels in analog instruments, pagan references, paisley-print shirts with massive lapels, big sideburns and even bigger fringes, or just the ghost of James Skelly – Cut the Master should still satisfy.
