Hopefully by now you will have had a chance to zone out to our magnificent new Sounds Of The New West Presents Ambient Americana CD, free with the latest issue of Uncut – if not, you can grab yourself a copy here. Anyway, this playlist picks up where the CD leaves off, with a brand new track by Marisa Anderson and William Tyler from their upcoming collaborative album Lost Futures.
There are similarly blissed-out new sounds from Red River Dialect’s David John Morris – written during a nine-month retreat at a Buddhist monastery in Nova Scotia – as well as from Lea Bertucci, Abdullah Ibrahim, Sven Wunder and Carlos Niño. Plus there are welcome returns for Rosali and Gruff Rhys, a new recording of an old song by Judy Collins, and Lucinda Williams covering Sharon Van Etten. Enjoy!
