During his decade-long songwriting career, Chris has explored musical terrain tread by contemporary folk music's greatest champions: Prine, Dylan, Guthrie, etc. With 'Odd, Ordinary \u0026amp; Otherwise,' Acker has forged an unmistakable lyrical style that's truly his own, containing more reverence than reference to those who came before him. The songs of O-O-O are equally as influenced by months of isolation during COVID quarantine as they are by Chris' place in the New Orleans dancehall and busking communities in years previous. The album's thirteen tracks flow gracefully from introspective, quiet tunes worthy of the modern Folk Music cannon, to downright barn burners ready for the dancehall and all the space in between. Acker's creative response to the heartbreak and anxiety that defined the year 2020 is primarily one full of life. The vividly painted scenes and stories that define the record are his and no one else's. Paired with his signature pop sensibility, playful and sometimes humorous language, and a professional sonic presentation, 'Odd, Ordinary \u0026amp; Otherwise' is a compelling record that merits close investigation.","brand":"Alliance Entertainment","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47505627185304,"sku":"195893020614","price":29.36,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0637\/9965\/6600\/files\/3974552-2710420.jpg?v=1764205872"},{"product_id":"dominique-adams-to-keep","title":"Dominique Adams - To Keep","description":"Dominique Adams is full of heart - armed with self-exploring songs and fueled by the people and places she's moved through and settled into. Born and raised in central Alberta, she re-located to Winnipeg, taking who she was before and dovetailing that with who she would become. Her debut album, To Keep, is about this process. Actively choosing the people, values, ideas, and parts of your identity that are important to you. How do you keep these at your core as you move through different seasons? But don't mistake this for Dominique being stubborn and locked in her ways. To Keep is also an invitation to remain curious and open. Looking forward - it is an invitation to move through life, collecting bits from the people, places and experiences you encounter, absorbing them into yourself. Looking back - it is an invitation to examine what you are holding on to and decide whether you need to let it go or make space for something new. The result is an inviting, tape-soaked set of lush folk songs recorded with ome of her closest friends (Liam Duncan aka Boy Golden, Keiran Placatka and Austin Parachoniak). Driving the album are Dominique's gorgeous vocals - singular and iconic, inviting and heartfelt. They weave through the album like a thread - their surprising melodies tying together songs that dig deep, but land softly. To Keep was built in the same way Dominique has tried to build her life - surrounded by good people, good environment and good things. The things she has chosen to keep in her life, she also wanted to keep on this album - a feeling documented for her to hold. And now you can hold it too, maybe finding something to keep for yourself and share with the people you love.","brand":"Alliance Entertainment","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47505627218072,"sku":"617308098297","price":31.04,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0637\/9965\/6600\/files\/4428609-3414473.jpg?v=1764205873"},{"product_id":"jose-afonso-fados-de-coimbra-e-outras-cancoes","title":"Jose Afonso - Fados De Coimbra E Outras Cancoes","description":"Fados De Coimbra E Outras Cancoes","brand":"Alliance Entertainment","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47505628037272,"sku":"8720623880040","price":31.71,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0637\/9965\/6600\/files\/4285333-3087085.jpg?v=1764205885"},{"product_id":"america-america","title":"America - America","description":"America","brand":"Alliance Entertainment","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47505629053080,"sku":"8718469532797","price":37.79,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0637\/9965\/6600\/files\/2255818.jpg?v=1764205904"},{"product_id":"amigo-the-devil-everything-is-fine","title":"Amigo the Devil - Everything Is Fine","description":"Everything Is Fine","brand":"Alliance Entertainment","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47505629184152,"sku":"192562757314","price":19.91,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0637\/9965\/6600\/files\/3833350.jpg?v=1764205908"},{"product_id":"ichiko-aoba-luminescent-creatures-2","title":"Ichiko Aoba - Luminescent Creatures","description":"Luminescent Creatures","brand":"Alliance Entertainment","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47505629675672,"sku":"5063176060211","price":47.24,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}]},{"product_id":"timothy-archambault-onimikig","title":"Timothy Archambault - Onimikig","description":"Onimikìg [Algonquin]:(n. an.)- thunderTimothy Archambault's unaccompanied flute pieces for this album have been inspired by Indigenous brontomancy (divination by thunder).Each piece highlights a different extended flute technique metaphorically related to types of thunder sounds: claps, peals, rolls, rumbles, inversions, and CG (cloud-to-ground).An important document of new music meets contemporary musicological research via Stephen O'Malley of SUNN O)))'s Ideologic Organ.The Indigenous flute used in this recording is made of cedar respective to the traditional woods used by the Kichesipirini and other tribes who live along the Ottawa \u0026amp; Saint Lawrence Rivers. To the Algonquin the flute (Pibigwan) is the wind maker or essence of the wind. Unlike other tribal nations whom the majority used the flute as a courting instrument, the Algonquin generally utilized the flute for more contemplative singular usage to mimic the sounds of nature or as a signaling device during times of conflict. When love songs were required, they were usually more plaintive in character expressing sadness, loneliness, or concerning the departure of a lover. The album intro begins with the shaking of a necklace of otter penis bone, fish spine, bear claw, elk teeth and deer hide, gifted from Algonquin Elder Ajawajawesi. It is meant to focus the listener's attention before the flute pieces begin. The warble or multi-phonic oscillation prevalent in all the pieces traditionally represented the \"throat rattling\" vocalization of the tonic note, sometimes known as the horizon of which the melody floats from. Due to the repetition of multi-phonic oscillation the performer will breathe erratically creating an altered state correlating with similar traditional ceremonial practices.","brand":"Alliance Entertainment","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47505629708440,"sku":"647581408087","price":25.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0637\/9965\/6600\/files\/4358528-3204332.jpg?v=1764205923"},{"product_id":"willow-avalon-southern-belle-raisin-hell-1","title":"Willow Avalon - Southern Belle Raisin' Hell","description":"Southern Belle Raisin' Hell Willow Avalon - Originally from Georgia and now based in New York, Avalon's musical journey began with her first word, \"Elvis.\" She grew up playing piano in church and taught herself guitar at age 12, using songwriting as a form of escapism.

This is dedication to preserving deserving recordings for future generations to enjoy.Vinyl enthusiasts will find this definitive 180-gram 45 RPM audiophile reissue of Diamonds \u0026amp; Rust to be an essential addition to their record collections - an epic sonic journey through Baez's most personal and refined work. Released in 1975, this album marked a pivotal moment in Baez's career, where her powerful folk roots seamlessly blend with the lush, polished production of the era. Her voice-pure, haunting, and timeless-has never sounded richer, and on this reissue, the analog warmth of her vocals will immerse you in every note like never before.At the heart of Diamonds \u0026amp; Rust is the title track, one of Baez's most celebrated songs. It's a nostalgic, poetic reflection on her relationship with Bob Dylan, a song that resonates with anyone who's experienced the bittersweet sting of love and loss. On vinyl, every detail-from the intimate strumming of her guitar to the breathy quiver in her voice-comes alive with the clarity and texture that only analog recordings can deliver.But it's not just the title track that makes this album indispensable. Baez's interpretations of songs such as Jackson Browne's 'Fountain of Sorrow' and Stevie Wonder's 'Never Dreamed You'd Leave in Summer' reveal her unmatched gift for bringing new depth to songs. Her renditions cut to the core, revealing emotional layers that other artists can only aspire to touch. And on 'Winds of the Old Days' and 'Dida,' Baez gives listeners an intimate window into her ever-evolving artistry.For those less familiar with Joan Baez, Diamonds \u0026amp; Rust serves as the perfect entry point into her discography. It's a masterclass in storytelling, and an album that shows the full spectrum of her talent - from folk ballads to contemporary covers, all delivered with an emotional intensity that lingers long after the last note fades. Baez's legacy as a voice for social justice and a champion of acoustic beauty is firmly grounded in her ability to make the personal feel universal - and Diamonds \u0026amp; Rust is the purest expression of that gift.This reissue brings the album back in all it's original analog glory.

Along with John Fahey and Leo Kottke, Basho was a part of the triumvirate of guitarists on the legendary Takoma Records, and one of the foremost proponents of elevating the steel-string acoustic guitar to the level of a concert instrument. In his brief and troubled life he laid the foundations for radical changes to the musical landscape of America during the 1960s and '70s but reaped little more than a sparse (if fervent) following during his lifetime. Almost 40 years since it's original issue on cassette, Basho's 13th album Bouquet is now available for the first time on vinyl. Affording us a greater insight into his remarkable vision, this long-awaited release is a critical piece of the puzzle that was Robbie Basho. Remastered from the original master recording (discovered during the production of Voice of the Eagle: The Enigma of Robbie Basho), it has never sounded better. The four-page insert includes rare photos and images from Basho's illustrated songbook, as well as texts from Glenn Jones, Henry Kaiser and others.

Those Grammy-nominated, list- topping recordings not only suggested renewed possibilities for aging songbooks but also marked the arrival of a trio fully capable of reorienting the wider folk landscape. Still, if it felt at all like the work of some short-lived supergroup or a one-off diversion (it never was), Rolling Golden Holy rebuffs the notion with preternatural beauty and charm, and imagination. These songs, all originals, follow the paths of the traditional tunes the band cherishes to new frontiers, the sounds and situations of history given the gravity and shape of now. This is a band working at the edge of modern folk.After the release of their debut, Anaïs Mitchell, Josh Kaufman, and Eric D. Johnson began discussing their next steps, loosely planning on writing and recording stints. Those sessions were delayed for all the unpredictable but now- familiar reasons until the Spring of 2021, when the trio reconvened with their families in tow in upstate New York. Their chemistry remained intact. Johnson's wife Annie had listened to him work with dozens of collaborators over the decades, but, listening in from one room over, she noted he'd never seemed so at ease and productive as he was with Kaufman and Mitchell in Woodstock. They were perfecting \"California,\" a timely and incorruptible classic about moving on in search of something else, something more. These sessions were a series of \"yes, and\" encounters, each one encouraging the others to take an idea and run with it further to the new safety net they've built together, for one another.These songs continually suggest and embody an unspoken continuum between traditional and modern folk. Mitchell finds self-sustaining adoration in steamy backseats, nighttime visions, and seasonal storms during \"Summer Dream,\" crisscrossing generational symbols to tie past, present, and future into a Gordian knot of devotion. Johnson reaches back to 19th-century wartime on \"Someone to Weep for Me\" to empathize with someone else descended from \"a long line of nobodies,\" just trying to live long enough to feel like he's mattered to anyone at all, a notion that knows neither age nor border. Johnson and Mitchell trade lines on \"Exile,\" their luminous response to another of humanity's eternal conundrums-how to revel in relationships that we know will one day leave us lonely. Love and loss, death and fear: the songs may be different, but the emotional sources remain.The band thrives in rendering fresh wisdom and insight from old models, whether scraps of ancient songs or the spark of entwined voices. Theirs is a space created for sharing, learning, singing, and playing as one. Rolling Golden Holy is the band's testament to partnership and trust at a moment when we crave such connections so much. They fully appreciate what they have found in one another. On Rolling Golden Holy, we get to live inside that magic, too.","brand":"Alliance Entertainment","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47505635049624,"sku":"617308025767","price":23.96,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0637\/9965\/6600\/files\/4122687-2862190.jpg?v=1764206015"},{"product_id":"briscoe-heat-of-july","title":"Briscoe - Heat Of July","description":"Briscoe - \"Heat Of July\". \"We learned how to write music from behind the wheel,\" Philip says, recalling the show-filled schedule that transformed Briscoe from Texas' best-kept secret into a national phenomenon and informed the creation of their new album, Heat of July. \"We were on the road so much that we had to become more mobile with the creative process.\" This necessity inspired a beautifully diverse album full of intimate, raucous and anthemic moments that blur the lines of Americana, rock, folk and country music.

Like his hero Utah Phillips, Carlisle's extraordinary gift for turning a phrase isn't about high falutin' pontificatin'; it's about looking out for one another and connecting through our shared human condition. On his anticipated second album, the magnum opus 'Peculiar, Missouri', Carlisle makes the case across twelve epic tracks that love truly can conquer all. Born and raised on the Midwestern plains, Carlisle is a product of the punk to folk music pipeline that's long fueled frustrated young men looking to resist. After falling for the rich ballads and tunes of the Ozarks, where he now lives, he began examining the full spectrum of American musical history. This insatiable stylistic diversity is obvious on 'Peculiar, Missouri' which was produced by Grammy-winning engineer and Cajun musician Joel Savoy in rural Louisiana. The songs range from sardonic honky-tonk barnburners like \"Vanlife\" to the heartbreaking queer waltz \"Life on the Fence.\" The album also imbues class consciousness in songs like \"Este Mundo,\" a cowboy border ballad about water rights, and the title track's existential talkin' blues about a surreal panic attack in Walmart's aisle five. Though Carlisle's poetic words evoke the mystical American storytelling of Whitman, Sandburg, and cummings, ultimately this is bonafide populist folk music. Carlisle recognizes that the only thing holding us back from greatness is each other. With 'Peculiar, Missouri', he brings us one step closer to breaking down our divides.","brand":"Alliance Entertainment","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47505638031512,"sku":"877746010514","price":23.61,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0637\/9965\/6600\/files\/4077950-2808676.jpg?v=1764206090"},{"product_id":"hayes-carll-what-it-is","title":"Hayes Carll - What It Is","description":"What It Is - Hayes Carll - On What It Is, the Houston, TX troubadour Hayes Carll is leaving the past behind. \"I want to dig in so this life doesn't just pass me by.

Prompted by admiration and respect for each other's work, the trio quickly came up with a plan and, once able, met in Northern Scotland for an extended writing retreat to see what magic could be made. The success of this initial experiment led to a second writing session and, in early 2024, the 10-song album Looking For The Thread was recorded at Real World Studios in Box, England, with Josh Kaufman (Bob Weir, The National, The Hold Steady) producing and a world-class band of musicians: Rob Burger (piano, organ, accordion, keys), Chris Vatalaro (drums, percussion), Cameron Ralston (bass), Caoimhin O'Raghallaigh (hardanger d'amore) and Josh Kaufman himself (guitar, keys).

Light in the Attic is honored to celebrate the 50th anniversary of In My Own Time with a special edition of this monumental classic. Featuring Dalton's interpretations of songs like \"Are You Leaving for the Country,\" \"When a Man Loves a Woman,\" \"Katie Cruel,\" and her posthumously recognized signature performance, \"Something On Your Mind,\" will be available in a 50th anniversary Deluxe Edition, which expands exponentially upon Light in the Attic's 2006 reissue of the album, co-produced by Nicholas Hill. This 50th Anniversary Deluxe Edition features the newly remastered (2021) In My Own Time album, presented on three sides of 45-RPM, 180-gram vinyl pressed at Record Technology Inc. (RTI), with the fourth side showcasing alternate takes from the album sessions. The set also contains two 7-inch singles, featuring previously-unreleased live recordings captured at Germany's Beat Club in 1971, both pressed at Third Man Record Pressing and housed in tip-on jackets. All audio has been newly remastered by Dave Cooley, while lacquers were cut by Phil Rodriguez at Elysian Masters. A 20-page booklet-featuring rarely seen photos, liner notes from musician and writer Lenny Kaye, and contributions from Nick Cave and Devendra Banhart-rounds out the package, which comes housed in a special trifold jacket. The Oklahoma-raised Karen Dalton (1937-1993) brought a range of influences to her work. As Lenny Kaye writes in the liner notes, one can hear \"the jazz of Ella Fitzgerald and Billie Holiday, the immersion of Nina Simone, the Appalachian keen of Jean Ritchie, [and] the R\u0026amp;B and country that had to seep in as she made her way to New York.' Armed with a long-necked banjo and a 12-stringed guitar, Dalton set herself apart from her peers with her distinctive, world-weary vocals. In the early '60s, she became a fixture in the Greenwich Village folk scene, interpreting traditional material, blues standards, and the songs of her contemporaries, including Tim Hardin, Fred Neil, and Richard Tucker, whom she later married. Bob Dylan, meanwhile, was instantly taken with her artistry. \"My favorite singer in the place was Karen Dalton,\" he recalled in Chronicles: Volume One (Simon \u0026amp; Schuster, 2004). \"Karen had a voice like Billie Holiday and played the guitar like Jimmy Reed.\" Those who knew Dalton understood that she was not interested in bowing to the whims of the record industry. On stage, she rarely interacted with audience members. In the studio, she was equally as uncomfortable with the recording process. Her 1969 debut, It's So Hard to Tell Who's Going To Love You The Best, reissued by Light in the Attic in 2009, was captured on the sly when Dalton assumed that she was rehearsing songs. When Woodstock co-promoter Michael Lang approached Dalton about recording a follow-up for his new imprint, Just Sunshine, she was dubious, to say the least. The album would have to be made on her own terms, in her own time. That turned out to be a six-month period at Bearsville Studios in Woodstock, NY. Producing the album was bassist Harvey Brooks, who played alongside Dalton on It's So Hard to Tell Who's Going To Love You The Best. Brooks, who prided himself on being \"simple, solid and supportive,\" understood Dalton's process, but was also willing to offer gentle encouragement, and challenge the artist to push her creative bounds. \"I tried to present her with a flexible situation,\" he told Kaye. \"I left the decisions to her, to determine the tempo, feel. She was very quiet, and I brought all of it to her; if she needed more, I'd present options. Everyone was sensitive to her. She was the leader.\" Dalton, who rarely performed her own compositions, selected a range of material to interpret-from traditionals like \"Katie Cruel\" and \"Same Old Man\" to Paul Butterfield's \"In My Own Dream\" and Richard Tucker's \"Are You Leaving For The Country.\" She also expanded upon her typical repertoire, peppering in such R\u0026amp;B hits as \"When a Man Loves a Woman\" and \"How Sweet It Is.\" In a departure from her previous LP, Dalton's new recording offered fuller, more pop-forward arrangements, featuring a slew of talented studio musicians. While '70s audiences may not have been ready for Dalton's music, a new generation was about to discover her work. In the decades following her death, a slew of artists would name Karen Dalton as an influence, including Lucinda Williams, Joanna Newsom, Nick Cave, Angel Olsen, Devendra Banhart, Sharon Van Etten, Courtney Barnett, and Adele. In the recent acclaimed film documentary Karen Dalton: In My Own Time, Cave muses on Dalton's unique appeal: \"There's a sort of demand made upon the listener,\" he explains. \"Whether you like it or not, you have to enter her world. And it's a despairing world.\" Peter Walker, who also appears in the film, elaborates on this idea: \"If she can feel a certain way in her music and play it in such a way that you feel that way, then that's really the most magical thing [one] can do.\" He adds, \"She had a deep and profound and loving soul... you can hear it in her music.\"","brand":"Alliance Entertainment","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47505642324120,"sku":"826853120319","price":61.41,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0637\/9965\/6600\/files\/4077272-2808342.jpg?v=1764206191"},{"product_id":"karen-dalton-shuckin-sugar-sky-blue","title":"Karen Dalton - Shuckin' Sugar - Sky Blue","description":"In 1962, Karen summoned Richard Tucker to join her in Colorado, extolling the healthier lifestyle and plentiful gigs at Boulder folk club The Attic.

Despite his weakened health, Darin devoted nearly all of his free time towards multiple causes, tirelessly campaigning for his friend Robert F. Kennedy until his assassination in June 1968, after which Darin withdrew from the spotlight and embarked on an unlikely personal journey. He swapped his crooner's tuxedo for folk singer denim, his toupee for an outlaw mustache, a Beverly Hills mansion for a secluded trailer at Pfeiffer Beach in Big Sur. Commitment is grittier and more audacious than Darin's previous work. From the counterculture anthem \"Me and My Hohner\" (with it's ironic reference to \"The Star-Spangled Banner\") and the soul-searching \"Sausalito\" to the wryly autobiographical \"Distractions (Part 1)\" and the tense funk of \"Light Blue,\" the album's experimentation and free-wheeling songcraft affirm Darin as a generational talent uniquely capable of crossing the borders of age and politics.","brand":"Alliance Entertainment","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47505642487960,"sku":"617308062137","price":26.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0637\/9965\/6600\/files\/4254969-3048992.jpg?v=1764206196"},{"product_id":"steve-dawson-ghosts","title":"Steve Dawson - Ghosts","description":"Vinyl LP pressing.

Horns, flute, and strings arrangements lift such songs as \"At the Chime of a City Clock\" and \"Hazy Jane I\" and \"II\" out of the realm of sad, folk-guitar music into something jazzier and lighter, while the beautiful piano and simple guitar of \"One of These Things First\" laments what could have been without sounding like a song of despair. But two tracks featuring John Cale on various instruments (such as viola and harpsichord) have the dark fragility of \"Pink Moon\": The lovely \"Fly\" is a fragile apparition, and \"Northern Sky\" is a dreamy, brooding plea for long-lasting love. Definitely not the same mood music as his starker work, but still a fine showcase for Nick Drake. Musician include:: Richard Thompson, guitar; Dave Pegg, bass; Dave Mattacks, drums; John Cale, keyboards and viola; Ray Warleigh, viola and flute; Pat Arnold and Doris Troy, vocals It was remastered by John Wood at Abbey Road studios from the original 40 year old analogue master tapes.","brand":"Alliance Entertainment","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47505644486808,"sku":"602537347551","price":29.36,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0637\/9965\/6600\/files\/2164145.jpg?v=1764206261"}],"url":"https:\/\/store.ultimateclassicrock.com\/collections\/folk.oembed?page=8","provider":"UCR","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
