Nostalgia rules the roost on “Drunkard’s Dream,” which kicks off as a stripped-down ballad and builds into a Coldplay-sized blast of expansive arena pop. Throughout it all, EG Vines sings about a golden yesterday that seems to shine a bit brighter than the present, while pedal steel guitar and anthemic percussion sell the drama in the background.

Sweden’s Sofia Talvik released her latest album, Paws of a Bear, back in September, participated in our Americana Around the World segment this week, and has coordinated with DittyTV for the world premiere of her new video of “Siren Song.”
As for the album, Talvik has created a mellow, indie-folk, 10-song masterpiece that’s wistful and melancholy. With acoustic instrumentation and a haunting pedal steel, the music elicits warmth and emotion, providing a wonderful backdrop for Talvik’s sweet and stunning vocals.
Singer-songwriter Jeff Crosby is premiering his new song “Laramie” exclusively for readers of The Boot. Press play below to listen to the song, which Crosby calls “almost too personal.”
Like all great Americana songs, “Laramie” finds its origins in a relationship gone bad. As its title might indicate, it takes both sonic and lyrical inspiration from the sparse vibes of Wyoming’s capital city. “I stayed in Laramie with an ex-girlfriend, and we got a cheap hotel, went out on the town, hit a bunch of dive bars in the freezing cold,” Crosby tells The Boot. “When we split up, I found myself wishing we could go back there. I guess the idea is that, when you really love someone, it doesn’t really matter where you are, as long as you’re together.”
