The Texas-raised fiddler/singer/songwriter/rocker, and member of Jason Isbell’s 400 Unit (as well as the frontman’s wife), has her first Holiday album out. And while there’s flying reindeer and fallen tinsel and such, there are also the other experiences that tend to come around this time of year: family drama, forced cheer, and fantasies of escaping off to some far-away tropical island.

Bob Weir, Marcus King, Aaron Lee Tasjan, Tedeschi/Trucks, and many others cover the songs of the revered jamband and Americana guitarist of Circles Around the Sun, Hard Working Americans, and much more. It’s high time his own songs received more attention, and this 3-CD set of terrific covers helps to do that.

The 2nd tribute to Prine on his Oh Boy record label, which is celebrating its 40th anniversary. Tyler Childers, Emmylou Harris, Nathaniel Rateliff, Jason Isbell, & others each cover one of his classics, and donate proceeds to a different nonprofit of their choice, from animal shelters to musician advocacy funds to UNICEF Covid-19 relief.

Following last year’s election, Isbell fulfilled a long-time wish of covering some of his favorite songs out of Georgia, with friends like Brandi Carlile, John Paul White, and a new singer on the scene named Brittney Spencer. All proceeds will benefit the following Georgia nonprofits: Black Voters Matter, Georgia Stand-Up, and Fair Fight.

John Cloyd Miller and Natalya Zoe Weinstein, who call Fairview, NC home, have been releasing individual songs from this great collection over the past many months, and played some of them live for us in Studio B last April. We’re happy to announce the full album is now available! They address the challenging year in which it was created in the liner notes: “Our world was turned upside down and it made us reflect on our lives, our priorities, and our art more than ever. We are all faced with rebuilding ourselves, our relationships, our careers, and our collective society.”
