Editors' Review:
The country legend has a heckuva renaissance going; her ditty "Travelin' Thru" might've been the finest tune on the quite fine "Transamerica" soundtrack, and her new "Backwoods Barbie" LP is a truly s... more »

Last year, the surprise stunner of an Americana set came from Plant and Krauss; this year it could be Campbell's. His covers disc catches us unawares--who knew the country stalwart listened to Travis ... more »

Listening to Duncan on her "Right Road Now" LP, it's hard to believe this same young woman could have experienced a crisis of confidence. The Tennessee singer belts out big melodies with real gumption... more »

Eddie Montgomery and Troy Gentry have spent their career holding the classic honky-tonk line in the heart of Nashville. That's good for country fans of all stripes, and "Back When I Knew It All" is an... more »

Editors' Review:
When Harris's hair was black, she was a powerful new country-pop voice. Now that it's white, she has become the genre's true matriarch. In both roles, she hasn't had a peer. New covers LP "All I Inten... more »

Serious events have occurred in Carlene Carter's life of late--most prominently, the deaths of Johnny and June--and she now delivers an album to match. "Stronger" is a lively but deeply meditative set... more »

New Orleans's Shaw not only possesses a vocal confidence belying her years, she's also got a dry wit usually only found on grizzled scene vets. The young woman makes snarkiness fun instead of bitter (... more »
