  • Artist: Aaron Watson

  • Release Date: 21st June, 2019

  • Genre: Country, Country Rock, Americana

  • Record Label: Big Label Records

  • Tracks: 20

We are big fans of West Texas native Aaron Watson and his last album ‘Vaquero’, so we were very excited to review his brand new album ‘Red Bandana’. Very rare for modern Country music, all twenty new tracks are written by Aaron himself and he comments that it’s ‘an album I've been working towards my entire career. There are 20 songs and they represent each of the 20 years I've been blessed to play shows and make country music'.

This is an excellent album with wonderful songwriting and arrangements from one of the hardest working independent Country artists in the US. Highlights include ‘Ghost of Guy Clark’, ‘Dark Horse’, ‘Old Friend’ and ‘Riding With Red’. But the entire album is very strong and you can probably find your own personal favourites. Every track of this super album is also underpinned by strong narrative storytelling.

Of the Austin-based pair, Consequence of Sound declares, "...one of the country's preeminent Americana duos," while CMT praises, "...an eclectic style of alt country for hearts who live to ramble." Building a fan base through grassroots support, Jamestown Revival has toured relentlessly over the past four years, performing at iconic venues from the Ryman Auditorium to Red Rocks Amphitheater as well as countless festivals such as Coachella, Austin City Limits, Stagecoach, and more.

Sarah Darling - Wonderland (07/06/19)

Artist: Sarah Darling

Release Date: 7th June, 2019

Genre: Country, Americana, Singer-songwriter

Record Label: Be Darling Records

Tracks: 13

A host of exceptional writers and producers came on board to collaborate with Sarah on ‘Wonderland’, from both the US and UK. Working with these songwriters has been a dream for Sarah, who took the challenge of writing with guests in her stride, “I’ve been in England for most of the year co-writing and working with producers. On this project, it’s really about new friends and new ideas. I literally would walk into a co-writing session, and had never met the person before. It’s so incredibly exciting to be finishing up the album, and to say I’ve recorded this in a different country. It’s a true reflection of me, and the current ride I’m on. Not to mention, I have new friends and memories for life. Music is about the connection. I’m so proud to share this trans-Atlantic collaboration. It’s the greatest adventure of my life to date!”

Calling the UK her “second home”, the Nashville based singer set out to embrace everything the UK had to offer, “I hope everyone gets to experience all the magic I had while recording it. I never imagined in a million years I’d be recording an album in the countryside of Wales. I wouldn’t change it for anything!” Whilst the early foundations for the record came together in Nashville with Mark Bright (Rascal Flatts, Carrie Underwood, Keith Urban), Sarah soon relocated to London where she spent much of 2018 working with acclaimed writer/producers Ash Howes (Kylie, Gabriella Aplin), Pete Hammerton , producers MyRiot (London Grammar), and songwriters including Shelly Poole and Jessica Sharman (Ward Thomas).
