In a surprising contender for first new exceptional album of the year, James Yorkston teams up with Swedish folk-rock-ish outfit The Second Hand Orchestra to deliver “The Wide, Wide River”, a “krautfolk” machine that got us hooked at first listen.
Plus: new tracks by Sean Rowe, Widowspeak, The Pink Stones, Sun Kil Moon, Typhoon, Moontype, Brodka, Kiwi Jr., Lucero, Altın Gün, Dijon, The Staves, Matthew E. White & Lonnie Holley, Jim Ghedi, Still Corners, Indigo Sparke, Madeline Kenney, Vivian Leva & Riley Calcagno, Wild Earp, and Carl Anderson.
