So here's us, on the raggedy edge.
When I'm walking under stars / I covet all the waning hours — Neko Case, Tightly |

A nice article at Aquarium Drunkard tracks the rise and apparent demise of AltCountry (or, if you prefer, Alt-Country.) Coming on the same day as the release of a new album by Ottawa’s Kathleen Edwards it tracks an interesting trajectory.
I’m not sure that I agree with the premise that AltCountry (I dislike the aesthetics of the dash) is over, its best days behind it, but I don’t fundamentally disagree with any of the individual points the article makes.
Ryan Adams performs 200 More Miles on the new Cowboy Junkies Trinity Revisited album. Stunningly beautiful, it’s my new favourite tune.
