Bolachas Now Playing, a new music Spotify playlist, updated every Wednesday.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Almost a decade after the last The Black Swans release, frontman Jerry David DeCicca<\/a> keeps putting out great solo albums. Which are not strictly solo, if you look at the cast of musicians enlisted here, a list that includes the legendary Augie Meyers (of the Texas Tornados and the Sir Douglas Quintet). The result is an instrumentally rich set of Americana songs that are probably your best introduction to DeCicca\u2019s work as a songwriter.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
