This debut album from @suzannahsongs is a country-tinged delight straight from the “Streets of Baltimore.” Vocally, she reminds me a bit of #pattiscialfa, but musically she has more in common with Emmylou. Give it a spin. #countrymusic #americana #singersongwriter

My lil’ #blog (link in bio) has been on a big roll this year - it’s best ever, in fact. Today, I unveiled what I foresee as a monthly feature come 2023: Songs du Jour, in which I round up recent singles that have turned my ear. Today’s batch features new offerings from #calistagarcia, #jackieminton, #belleshea, #chriscanterbury and #darrenjesse, plus - though I spotlighted it before - the three minutes of sonic sweetness that is “Northern Girl” by #maggiepope.

New selfie. (Shaved off my beard.)

I subscribe to #AppleMusic, which lists the top artists, albums and songs users listened to in its year-end review. My stats are skewed for a few reasons - much of my #NeilYoung listening is via the #NeilYoungArchives and a lot more listening is via the Vox app. Still, it’s a good representation of my listening habits…

My wife shared this with me. So true!

Last night I watched the @thesongwritershowcase livestream here on Instagram, as one of my favorite young singer-songwriters, @calistagarcia.music, was taking part. Her new songs sounded great, as expected - her forthcoming album, out in February, should be excellent. So the big surprise for me was the other two artists, @belleshea and @jackieminton. This morning I listened to Minton’s 2021 Earnest Voice album - simply spellbinding. “Made of Memories” is a wondrous song. Belle Shea’s new single “Cheyenne” is phenomenal, too, as is her 2020 album, The Art of Years. Which is all to say, check out their songs and albums. All worth seeking out.
