  17. Top Albums of 2015

    in Soundboard

    Posted

    Ok here we go... Tons of amazing stuff has been happening on the fringes of country music in recent years and 2015 continued the trend:

     

    State Champion – Fantasy Error (if these guys aren't already New Rider’s new fav band, they should be)
     
    Sarah Shook & the Disarmers – Sidelong (unbelievable debut album from Chapel Hill NC local band, self-released on Bandcamp https://sarahshookthedisarmers.bandcamp.com/ )
     
    Daniel Romano – If I've Only One Time Askin' (trad. country album w/ segues between songs, random bits of orchestration and weirdness, this should be on year end lists everywhere)
     
    Phil Cook – Southland Mission (solo release by guy from Megafaun, country-gospel-soul)
     
    Jason Isbell – Something More Than Free (no explanation needed)
     
    Chris Stapleton – Traveller (killer songwriting)
     
    John Moreland – High On Tulsa Heat (killer voice)
     
    Other (more rock) stuff that was great:
    Bright Light Social Hour – Space Is Still The Place (trippy spacey jammy awesomeness)
    Tame Impala – Currents (ditto)
    Sufjan Stevens – Carrie & Lowell (great album, surprisingly even better live show)
    Wilco – Star Wars (feels good to put a Wilco album on a year-end list again)
