Ashley Monroe - Promised Land




This was a song recorded for and left off of "Satisfied" along with tracks like Carry On, Thinkin' It Over, California and Come To Me. I know it was recorded at Shiloh Music Group studios and was on their myspace page several years ago but taken down before I learned how to rip the source files from there. It was written by Terry Clayton, Jeffrey Todd Jones and Ashley Monroe. You'll find some pics from this recording session if you go to their myspace page.

Spotify currently has it listed on their app as a "bonus track" for it's version of the Satisfied album. I originally did a stream rip of the file which was still in a great quality according to the app I used, but now Amazon has put the track for sale on their website. That's the version you'll find below. It's a stunning traditional country tune so I hope it makes you all very happy!

SIDE NOTE: She's also featured on Background Vocals on the latest Vince Gill album "Guitar Slinger" she co-wrote and sings on two tracks "Who Wouldn't Fall In Love With You" and "If I Die" ... not to be missed.

Pistol Annies team up with The Chieftains




For 50 years, Ireland's Chieftains have popularized their country's traditional music, often by collaborating with artists from other genres. On the new Voice of Ages album, out Feb. 21, the band teams with acts from the Americana and indie-rock worlds.

Country trio Pistol Annies — consisting of Miranda Lambert, Ashley Monroe and Angaleena Presley — joins The Chieftains for a lovely version of the Appalachian ballad Come All Ye Fair and Tender Ladies, featuring the group's three-part harmonies.

"Pistol Annies took the old Irish melody of Come All Ye Fair and Tender Ladies and, with the help of The Chieftains, brought it to life in their own unique way," says Chieftains founder Paddy Moloney, who produced the new album with T Bone Burnett.

Other guests on Voice of Ages include Bon Iver, the Civil Wars, The Decemberists, the Low Anthem and Imelda May.

Crooked Still - Friends Of Fall (2011)




After ten years of working together as one of the finest, most creative bands on the contemporary string band scene, Crooked Still recently announced their impending hiatus.



But, before they go their separate ways to work on some exciting new projects, they've got a fall tour full of dates and a seven-song EP titled Friends of Fall, which hits stores Oct. 11. The EP is full of great new original tunes as well as a couple of cover songs - including a stirring rendition of Paul Simon's "American Tune," among others


Friends of Fall, the new 7-song EP from Crooked Still, offers a fresh and vibrant look at Boston’s most innovative folk group on the eve of their tenth anniversary. While Crooked Still is well known for its one-of-a-kind interpretations of traditional American folk songs, Friends of Fall showcases the band’s compelling approach to contemporary and original music. This unique song collection coincides with the band’s 10-year anniversary tour in October, and features covers of the Beatles, Paul Simon, and John Hartford as well as original pieces and a musical adaptation of a Wendell Berry poem.

Crooked Still recorded Friends of Fall in the midst of a busy summer tour, convening for three days in a beautiful former church house, now the site of Rotary Records studios in West Springfield, MA. For this special project, each band member personally arranged and directed the entire ensemble for a single song. Recorded and mixed by two of the finest engineers from Nashville, TN (David Sinko, Erick Jaskowiak) these gorgeous recordings capture Crooked Still’s signature live energy and dynamic musicianship, as well as standout performances by lead singer Aoife O’Donovan.

BETH HART & JOE BONAMASSA - Don't Explain (2011)





Los Angeles-based singer-songwriter Beth Hart, known for her raw and powerful blues-rock sound, wraps her expressive vocals around classic soul covers on Don’t Explain, an album that grew out of her friendship with the acclaimed Blues guitarist Joe Bonamassa. Produced by Kevin Shirley (Led Zeppelin, Aerosmith, Black Country Communion), Don’t Explain is an intimate collection of hand-picked soul cover versions, as performed by celebrated artists, such as Gil Scott-Heron, Tom Waits, Etta James and Aretha Franklin. Don’t Explain perfectly combines Beth Hart’s raspy soulful vocal with Bonamassa’s unique guitar sound, Kevin Shirley, who has produced Bonamassa’s last five albums, reflects on what it was like working with Beth for the first time – “Beth’s got a pretty heady voice, very reminiscent of Janis Joplin, she’s also got a lot of Etta James in her, but hadn’t really accessed it. With this material, there is a gentleness to the way she delivers the most heartfelt tunes that she hasn’t shown before. It’s very cool, she’s done a fantastic job.”
