bustedafternoon Posted March 27, 2019 Author Share Posted March 27, 2019 Union is streaming at Garden & Gun's website.I like the songs they premiered early, but overall, the record feels pretty stale. Songs like "Lady LIberty" are kinda brutal. The lyrics are pretty formulaic "protest" songs without much weight. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
EMF Posted May 6, 2019 Share Posted May 6, 2019 Caught the show in Brooklyn last night and they were great. Jay's got a Roy Orbison look going and the band is top notch, mark spencer, in particular, blew my mind (pedal steel, keys and telecaster). Big fan of the new one and disagree big time with busted as I think its spot on but to each our own. Jay's lyrics along with his sense of rhythm and melody speak to me big time and I would see them again tomorrow if it was possible. it was just that good. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Doug C Posted February 27, 2020 Share Posted February 27, 2020 'Son Volt Plays "Trace"' has been added to the Newport Folk lineup. Nice! The current band is excellent, but imagine if he recruited Mike Heidorn, the Boquists, and Eric Heywood for this. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
