    What’s everyone think about the new Bingham album? I like it. Few songs I could do without but overall it’s solid. I did have very low expectations going in so that probably helps.

    I like it quite a bit. Had low expectations as well, but it's legitimately good.

    Not a big fan so far.

    I'll give it another listen, but it's a clear step down from Fear and Saturday Night to me.

    Man, I just can't get enough of this guy. I've listened to this album probably five times through already.

    This is absolutely my favorite song on the album, so damn good

    I think either that one or Strawberry queen are my favorites. The Last Bite is a good one, too. He's instantly become one of my favorite artists

    And he has essentially no following at the moment. He’s playing in bars for free. Only has 400 twitter followers. He’s playing at a brewery in Harrisonburg next month (JMU college town). Think I’m going to make the trip up from Richmond

    Looks like he played an acoustic set at some bar in Morgantown last night during an open mic night. I sincerely hope our #West Virginia Mountaineers contingent is getting out and supporting this guy.

    New Vandoliers album is out today, and it's really good. More cowpunk than traditional country, but some clear red-dirt influences.

    thanks for this recommendation. i wouldnt be surprised if this guy gains some notoriety, he's solid.

    Appalachia region is putting out some great music right now.

    Not sure if this has been posted but it’s the only good new country (for me) I’ve heard since Bonnie Prince Billy or Wooden Wand, definitely in the vein of Americana crooning “alt”-country:

    Album of unreleased Townes Van Zandt stuff is solid. It's mostly just different versions of already released songs, with a few new ones thrown in. I could listen to a million different versions of Pancho & Lefty
