As you probably noticed already by our playlists, we’re big fans of the New Orleans country scene and its retro-y sound. One of its rising stars is singer-songwriter Esther Rose, whose third album, “How Many Times”, is out now.

The Hold Steady was the last band (part of) our team saw before the world has changed, in a year that started recreational, but ended kinda medical. Our yearly pilgrimage to London will unfortunately not happen in 2021, but they’re making up for it with their first proper album since 2014 (not counting 2019’s single collection “Thrashing Thru the Passion”). Our favourite rock band is back. Let’s celebrate like it’s early March 2020, minus the getting ourselves crammed inside a room with no masks on. At least for now.
The Mountain Goats’ Goths and Fionn Regan’s The Meetings of the Waters are our albums of the week, just before we get into our Primavera mood.

Meg Duffy is also known as the bassist in Kevin Morby’s live band, but she’s making a name for herself as Hand Habits. Her first album for Woodsist is our album pick for this week.
Such a wonderful concert by Will Stratton last night. In the name of everyone who was there, thank you so much Will.
