10 musical memories of 2010 in no particular order, with special reference to the time spent with Lyle Lovett, to five minutes with Darrell Scott and the Daytrotter Sessions, inexhaustible source of new talent. It's simple when you think you have "discovered" someone, it's already spent with Sean Moeller ... Roll 2011!
The Mynabirds : very pop, but perfect
The Duke & The King announced somewhere between Neil Young and Marvin Gaye, between Paul Simon and Sam Cooke ... So, I discovered the Felice Brothers and Simon Felice solo.
Black Prairie , three members for an alloy Decemberists bluegrass-klezmer-gypsy very cinematic and mostly instrumental, except on this title J
Nathaniel Rateliff , a songwriter from Denver , seen in September, back in February in Paris
Cheyenne Marie Mize recorded an album with Bonnie Prince Billy, but Before Lately is his first.
Treetop Flyers , an English band does not reinvent the folk-rock but doing well with an EP almost perfect
Ray Lamontagne & The Pariah Dogs , not a fan of his early albums, but care very last. Superb concert with Eric Heywood Greg Leisz AND the pedal steel guitar!
Kenny White , discovered in the first part of Judy Collins at the New Morning. He produced the latest album by Peter Wolf, and played with the Stones, never having seen them in concert ...
KORT, aka Kurt Wagner and Cortney Tidwell reinvent the country and suddenly, it does almost sounds more like country music!
The Tallest Man on Earth , he seems to reinvent the folk at once open tunings and energy on stage . Can still do better!
