In this weird period of time where a pandemic still looms in the background, but some states have moved to bars being open, it seems that live music is slowly becoming a thing once again. To be honest, it still doesn’t feel normal, or like the “old days” quite yet. However, with baby steps and […]
Looking at Jason Hawk Harris at first glance you might not take much in. Sure he’s tall, dark and handsome, but if you look closer you can see the lines of a scar above his left eye. Then you listen to his songs and realize that the scars aren’t just on his face, they’re […]
They say big things come in small packages. In the case of Morgan Wade, that would certainly be true. I’m not sure many people in attendance at Morgan’s show at Mercury Lounge on a Friday night were prepared for what was to come. Imagine this: a tiny, tattooed, blonde woman in Red Wing boots and […]
I’ve had the opportunity to cover numerous shows this year and choosing just a few photos has proven to be a very difficult task. I could have easily just picked photos from the few days I spent at this year’s Americanafest, but I’ve tried to include only a couple of photos from that week. From […]
Hannah Bethel’s new song “The House is on Fire” is due out on October 18th; it was produced by Jeff Huskins and Hannah Bethel and features Bethel, with Jon Conley on guitar (arrangement by Hannah Bethel) and Scotty Sanders on steel guitar. Americana Highways caught up with Hannah and had a chat with her that […]
Have you ever been so consumed by a song, an artist, an album that you listen to them non-stop? That sometimes the song you love most makes you cry and then sometimes it makes you think? That you wonder what the artist experienced and how they can speak to you so directly with their songs? […]
If the name James Steinle (that’s pronounced Stine-lee) isn’t familiar to you, then I predict it won’t be long before it is. I had the pleasure of catching this young, Texas singer/songwriter at my favorite dive bar in Tulsa, The Mercury Lounge, on one of the last summer nights of 2019. The crowd was spotty, […]
Look in any music group on Facebook and you’ll likely see the name Lost Dog Street Band. With six albums under their belt, including Benjamin’s previous solo album, these aren’t newcomers to the music world. They’ve been busking, crisscrossing the country and playing to whoever will listen for years. In the past couple of years […]
1. Alexa Rose happened to be the first set I caught the entire week and might have been my favorite. With the fading last glimmers of sunset radiating around the TRUE music venue at the Cambria Hotel, Alexa took the stage backed by a four piece band. Her voice is as haunting as it is […]
I distinctly remember the first time that I realized I really loved Jason Isbell’s music. I was in Nashville for Americanafest in 2017 and was watching the awards show at The Family Wash. He was joined on stage by Amanda Shires to perform “If We Were Vampires”. I can distinctly recall getting goosebumps watching their […]
