The Daily Country Presents Essential 8: Charlie Overbey

California-native Charlie Overbey will release Broken Arrow, a collection of introspective and honest alt-country tunes helmed by Ted Hutt and featuring guest appearances from The Mastersons, Miranda Lee Richards, and Eddie Spaghetti, on April 20th. From the reverb-drenched ‘70s-channeling opener “Slip Away” to “The Ballad of Eddie Spaghetti,” and the rootsy “Outlaws,” Overbey approaches life’s darkness with determination, appreciation, and optimism. Ahead of the record’s release, Overbey answered his Essential 8 and spoke about gratitude, Broken Arrow, and The Fillmore, and shared a special gift from a fan.

Is there a story behind your album’s title?
I named the band “The Broken Arrows” as a nod to the Native American symbol for Friendship. I named the album Broken Arrow because at times we are all broken in some way. Broadly speaking here: we are all headed somewhere unknown, and right now our great nation seems to be as fractured as ever. It felt a perfect title for the times and a lot of the songs from this album were written in some of my most vulnerable/”broken” moments.

What’s your favorite food on the road?
I love a good burrito from Flying J Truck Stop…and there’s nothing like some good ol’ Texas BBQ! Brisket country.

What are your “must have” albums for the road?
Jackson Brown’s Runnin On Empty, The Rolling Stones Exile On Main Street and David Allan Coe’s Greatest Hits.

No Depression premieres Atlanta indie-folk group Book Club’s new single “So Many Nights”

Book Club’s new single, “So Many Nights” incorporates many of the elements of an indie folk hit: a catchy hook, a dramatic string section, and a Southern Gothic sensibility that’s supported by wailing harmonies. What makes it stand out from the pack, though, is Book Club’s passion and energy. Goodness knows there are actual millions of songs about loneliness in the roots and Americana world, but the band’s clever use of repetition and careful arrangement will make your heart ache thinking about the times you’ve felt stuck yourself. “So Many Nights” takes a big risk combining elements of folk and jazz, and thanks to the careful arrangement and impassioned performances, it completely pays off.

UPROXX premieres Elijah Ocean’s “Down This Road” video

Elijah Ocean makes warm, homespun Americana that spans the country’s expanse, from his origins in the east coast harbors of New York and Maine, and moving all the way through his more recent encampment on the west coast, out in Los Angeles. Following up his last album, 2017’s self-titled release Elijah Ocean, he recently shared the one-off track, “Down This Road,” a song that is an overt homage to the styling of Tom Petty. Today, we’re premiering the video for the song, which kicks off a mini west coast tour for Ocean.

Check out his story of the song, in his own words, along with those tour dates, below, and watch the clip above.

“Down This Road” is a song I co-wrote with my keyboardist Zach Jones over the course of 3 years. It’s about lifelong

Dallas Observer features Pedigo’s Magic Pilsner

If you’ve been even remotely plugged into the Dallas music scene, you’ve probably encountered John Pedigo. The Dallas native has spent time playing grunge, rockabilly and punk rock for rowdy and inebriated audiences of 10 and massive festival and theater stages where the crowds swelled to thousands.

Most recently, he’s been one-half of the O’s, an energetic, roots-influenced duo that has released four full-length albums and spent the better part of the past decade on an unceasing touring schedule traversing North America and Europe. Along the way, Pedigo’s music has earned comparisons to many leading lights of the alt-country and Americana genres, and he’s carved out an impressive group of well-known champions, including Old 97’s frontman Rhett Miller, a past tour-mate.

While the O’s are still going strong, Pedigo’s latest project is a deeply personal affair written while in the grip of tragedy and grief. Pedigo’s Magic Pilsner — named after an infamously bad batch of homebrew that his father concocted at home one year — is the name of the album and band that serves as a tribute to his father, who was diagnosed with terminal cancer in 2016. As he was processing the shock of this news, Pedigo set out to write and record a cycle of songs that would pay tribute to his father’s legacy.

With the idea that the songs could also serve as a form of entertainment while the health battle was at the forefront of his family’s attention, Pedigo began work soon after the diagnosis, and the prognosis reports, for a while, at least, seemed promising. However, Pedigo’s father died in May 2017. Rather than shelving the project, Pedigo pressed on, a process he found beneficial.

“I hate to use the word cathartic, but it certainly was that to a certain degree,” Pedigo explains in press announcements accompanying the album’s release. Soon, he was calling friends and tracking the songs into a cohesive album structure.

For Folk’s Sake Interviews Sir Canyon

Sir Canyon’s Noah Lamberth is an innovator. Yet, whenever he’s successfully blending genres, influences, and ideas, into his next psychedelic country fête, he makes it look oh-so-easy. The masterful singer-songwriter wasn’t always intent on producing the newfound windswept sound that he has on his latest project, but we here at For Folk’s Sake sure are glad that he did. We sat down with Lamberth for a quick Q&A regarding Sir Canyon and a little more about himself in the process.

Tell us a little bit about yourself and your background in music?

I’m from Riverside, California, which is about an hour (without traffic) from Los Angeles. I had a late start in music; I always loved it but was really into sports in high school and even played soccer in college. While in college, my friend needed a bass player for his band. I wanted to be in the band so I started playing bass every day for hours to get good enough to play with them. After a few years, I left that band and started a country band called Hank Floyd, which had some success on local radio and opening for a number very well know country artists. I switched to playing guitar and singing, and never looked back.

As an artist, how do you define success?

Success doesn’t always mean dollars and cents. It could be as simple as making a great record and knowing you’re playing good music with people you like to hang with. Hopefully, you can gain an audience and connect with them in a way where you can make a living out of it, but that’s rarely the case.

Adobe and Teardrops Reviews Jamie McLean’s: One And Only

Jamie McLean’s been around the block a few times. Having toured with the Dirty Dozen Brass Band, Aaron Neville, and Brett Dennen, and recorded sessions with Norah Jones and Chuck D, the guy knows his way around a guitar. On his third solo release, One And Only, McLean dives into a roots rock that’s hard-hitting and uplifting; a big LA sound with Midwestern warmth. As Von, my podcast co-host describes it, “it sounds like it would be a good road trip album. Stays at a decent enough pace to keep you going for a long stretch, and some of the lyrics would lead me to daydreaming about events in my own life.”

Carefree and breezy is not the same thing as lacking substance, as McLean proves. One and Only does something that very few people can accomplish: an album of (mostly) happy songs that actually carries weight. Whether or not you’re in a good place right now, the songs, as Von wrote, can take you to a time when you were. One and Only is full of catchy hooks that undoubtedly make way for blistering solos in live performances. This is the perfect album for a winter thawing into spring, it’ll certainly stick with you into the summer.
