The same week Ron Pope was set to release his latest album Bone Structure, a tornado ripped through his East Nashville neighborhood and caused devastation just a couple blocks north of his house. He spent most of the next two weeks climbing onto damaged roofs and hauling limbs to the curb instead of going through the usual album press and promotion maneuvers.

Even though it will mean a huge dent in his income for the foreseeable future, Ron Gallo wants you to stay the fuck home.
That’s exactly what he did this past Saturday (and again on Sunday, for the European audience), after his show at Melted Music Festival in Columbus, Ohio, was canceled due to the coronavirus pandemic. Broadcasting via Instagram Live from his home studio in Nashville, Gallo staged a concert he appropriately hashtagged “#staythefuckhome.”
“As artists, our livelihood depends on traveling around cramming as many people as possible in not always big spaces,...

Nashville singer-songwriter gives a ride to some old friends in the video for his new song “Habits,” a country-tinged track from his forthcoming album Bone Structure. The album, Pope’s follow-up to 2017’s Work, will be released March 6th via his own Brooklyn Basement Records.
A mostly acoustic number that has Pope examining the mistakes and stumbles that brought him to the present, “Habits” is — like many of the songs on “Bone Structure” — a personal tune that was penned for the singer’s young daughter. In the second verse, he...

Mumford & Sons, the Lone Bellow, and Lady Antebellum are among the bands represented on this week’s list of the best country and Americana songs.
Jimmy “Duck” Holmes, “Devil Got My Woman”
With help from producer Dan Auerbach, the owner of Mississippi’s oldest juke joint gives a nod to Skip James by reimagining the title track from the bluesman’s 1968 release. The result is a loose, thumping slice of Bentonia blues, performed with greasy grit and minor-key menace by one of the genre’s unsung heroes.

Eli Young Band celebrate the tried and true, Morgan Wallen searches for a love-on-the-run, and singer-songwriter Madison Kozak arrives with a beautiful ode to her father.
Darrin Bradbury, “Talking Dogs & Atom Bombs”
Cult favorite Darrin Bradbury makes his Anti- Records debut with Talking Dogs & Atom Bombs, produced by the Milk Carton Kids’ Kenneth Pattengale and due out this September. The album’s title track dishes up Bradbury’s signature gumbo of countrified talking blues, oddball folk, and black humor, with some stoner-worthy philosophy about the origins of microwaves tossed into the pot.

Caroline Spence offers her vision of supportive partnership acting as a balm in difficult times with her new song “Sit Here and Love Me.” The track appears on Spence’s upcoming Mint Condition album.
Over gentle acoustic guitar that’s later joined by some echoing, sustained piano chords, Spence sings from the perspective of someone grappling with depression and the reassurances they make to a partner. “I don’t need you to solve any problem at all,” she sings, “I just need you to sit here and love me.”
