This album is one of my most eagerly anticipated releases. I’ve been listening to Josh Turner and Carson McKee for what seems like about two years. These young men are extremely talented. Josh Turner’s YouTube page, formerly named after his Martin guitar, is …

The Milk Carton Kids: Portland Sessions
Incredible recording by two of the finest musicians alive today. For fans of beauty.
Josh Moore – “Tomorrow”
This recording of Josh Moore and Ryan Gustafson highlights some subtle yet excellent guitar licks. The vocals are good too. Enjoy.

Pebaluna – Carny Life
Pebaluna came by the strong recommendation of Good Old War. One site described their sound as like She and Him but I heartily disagree. The lead vocal is a bit like Zoey Deschanel, but the rest of the sound has a sophistication that …
