Jesse Daniel – “Rollin’ On” – Jesse Daniel is regularly touted around these parts as being one of the biggest artists to watch for in the future.

Logan Ledger – “(I’m Gonna Get Over This) Some Day” – Speaking of highly-anticipated artists of the future, we’ve been touting Logan Ledger as one for well over a year now, yet have been having to wait patiently through single and EP releases. But patience will pay off when we finally see the release of his debut eponymous album on April 3rd. If this new track is any indication, it will be well worth the wait.
John Anderson – “Years” – John Anderson is plotting a big comeback after a few years of health issues and general oversight by the recording industry. Now saddled up with Dan Auerbach as producer, he’s readying the release of a new record on April 10, and has graced us with the title track to tide us over in the meantime. Excellent stuff.
Nora Jane Struthers – “Slow Climb” – “If you’re in the mood for some serious half-time, heart-stomping honky tonk sounds, Nora Jane Struthers offers plenty of them here in this sentimental love song from her upcoming album Bright Lights, Long Drives, First Words out February 21st.
The Drew Fish Band – “Every Damn Time” ft. Pam Tillis – The Drew Fish Band have just released their first full LP, and if you want to know why you should be paying attention, check out this track featuring the great Pam Tillis. Country music at its finest.

Will you be reviewing the Drew Fish Band album? Pretty good stuff!
February 9, 2020 @ 9:43 am
Friday was one of those extreme release days where a dozen or more albums came out that I intend to review. But if I posted two reviews a day, people tend to not read them. So I try to space them out and give folks the opportunity to focus on one album at a time. Drew Fish is definitely being considered for review.
February 9, 2020 @ 10:42 am
I’m listening to the album right now. So far…yes…it’s “pretty good stuff”.
February 9, 2020 @ 9:40 am
On Twitter Jason Isbell is hinting of new music Monday. Probably a new song in advance of his new album.
February 9, 2020 @ 9:45 am
I know a little bit, but don’t want to spoil the fun for everyone just to be first. I would definitely expect a new song, and the announcement of a new album from Jason Isbell on Monday. Look for a May release date.

You gonna throw some Moreland up? “When my fever breaks” is song of the year material.
February 9, 2020 @ 2:31 pm
Working on my review as we speak, and will consider adding one of his songs on the next go ’round.
February 10, 2020 @ 7:54 am
Definitely have to spend more time with the Moreland’s album but the electronic rythm section kind of reminded me of post rock bands ala Notwist….and it turned me down a bit..
February 9, 2020 @ 8:50 pm
“Tuesday I’ll be Gone” John Anderson & Blake Shelton is a terrific song
February 9, 2020 @ 11:21 pm
How about the recent Arthur Hancock EP? Features Miles Miller, Tyler’s fiddle player, Stapleton’s bass player, and others. It’s a top 5 album of 2019, hands down.
February 10, 2020 @ 9:01 am
Thanks as always for your hard work, Trig. Figured I would use this platform to give a band a shoutout I saw play last night in Boston; I actually found out about them from the comments on this website. Band is called THE MICHIGAN RATTLERS-they absolutely killed it last night when I saw them and I think many people who visit this website would enjoy their music. Happy Monday folks!
February 10, 2020 @ 1:14 pm
Just gave it a full spin as well, love the whole thing! Good call!! I like the Jesse Daniel tune too.
February 10, 2020 @ 1:16 pm
Supposed to be a reply to Cody’s comment on Drew Fish Band album.
February 15, 2020 @ 8:44 pm
I just saw Jesse Daniel on Friday opening for Jason Boland and I totally get why he’s on this list. I’m hooked on the old album already and can’t wait for the new album.
