SPOTLIGHT: Jude Brothers’ Kaleidoscopic Album ‘Dogwood Maiden Voyage’ Navigates Through Nature and Reinvention (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Editor's Note: Jude Brothers, whose new LP titled Dogwood Maiden Voyage is due out September 25 via Gar Hole Records, is No Depression's Spotlight Artist for September 2026. Stay tuned all month for more about this Ozarks singer-songwriter and multi-instrumentalist. Jude Brothers needs the natural world to make music. In fact, the musk and quiet of the woods are so integral to the Arkansas-based folk musician’s being, that Brothers’ voice diminishes — their range shrinks, vocal cords constrict —
ALBUM REVIEW: Two Runner’s ‘Porchlight’ Shines a Beacon of Hope (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Moving on tends to hurt. Even if it’s good; even when it’s necessary. From that inescapable ache Paige Anderson begins Two Runner’s latest album, Porchlight: “How many times have you left / A life you’ve always known?” The answer hangs in the question’s implication — in the mere prospect of that kind of monumental departure. Porchlight is Anderson’s first release as Two Runner solo, after parting ways with creative partner, Emilie Rose (Rose still plays on the album). It also follows the end of
In The Deep End With Brandon Flowers (opens the original)

Country crossover albums are nothing new. Notably in that long tradition, there’s Ray Charles’ Modern Sounds in Country and Western Music, The Pointer Sisters’ Fairytale, and Cyndi Lauper’s Detour, and Bowling for Soup Frontman Jarret Reddick’s Just Woke Up. Ringo Starr cut his first country album, Beaucoups of Blues, in 1970, and has recently made two more with T Bone Burnett (ND feature). Then there's the Beastie Boys’ illusive, cult darling, Country Mike’s Greatest Hits and Lana Del Rey’s lon
“That’s What Hope is For” —Steve Earle, Songwriting, and Music that Changes the World (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Sometimes, Steve Earle worries people think he’s stopped writing songs. At 71, Earle’s one of the most prolific writers alive today — best known for songs like his first hit, “Guitar Town,” his generational bootlegging outlaw ballad, “Copperhead Road,” and the traditional Irish music influenced “Galway Girl.” But Earle’s been busy writing a musical for the last few years (an adaptation of the 1983 Robert Duvall film, Tender Mercies), and the character-driven country/rock songs that made him famo

Read excerpt
Editor's Note: John R. Miller, whose new LP titled The Great Unknowing came out today via Rounder Records, is No Depression's Spotlight Artist for July 2026. Read more about Miller's fifth album and stay tuned for more from him all month long. As the world crumbles slowly, a listless unease prevails. But a startling clarity reveals itself, as well. From this distinctly pensive, unsettled vantage, John R. Miller delivers his latest album, The Great Unknowing. The album assumes its title from “Tol
