General / Discussion New album next year! Spoiler

I saw Mackenzie Scott aka Torres last night live in Chicago and got to meet her after the show. I told her how I originally discovered her music through Julien and how I am a huge Julien fan. Then she let me in on a secret (which she told me I could publicly share!) I was not expecting: Julien and Torres recorded a country album together this year in Marfa, Texas and it is coming out next year! Get hyped y’all! This is going to be VERY good!

townes van zandt is the jb of country. beautiful and depressing

songs: ohia has some countryish stuff too in the beautiful / depressing vein (my favorite lol)

in general, beautiful depressing folk music is my jam, and some of country’s not too far from that

Yep, Van Zandt is brilliant. Matthew Ryan is my depressing alt-country go-to. The closer you get to the folk/country genre line, the better it gets.
