Country music album reviews from Holler.
The impressive Nightroamer is a logical step in a career arc that has never given in to commercial concerns.
On My Bed, the deeply personal is all the politics there is. Not to say that there’s any simple resolution to be found: for Bruce, conflicting feelings and contradictory impulses are dissected, sometimes subdued, but rarely tamed.
Blue in the Sky is a solid representation of the commercial country status quo; Dustin Lynch opting to reinforce country tropes even when presented with an opportunity to subvert them.
It's perfectly crafted pop-country that goes down like smooth caramel, while also ensuring you that she’ll never pretend to be anything but herself.
The Blossoms’ natural minimalism - combined with Torrey and Burkum’s transcendent voices - make One Day an early contender for Americana album of the year.
A superb and mesmerizing next step in Erin Rae's promising career.
