The Austin Chronicle is an independent, locally owned and operated alternative newsweekly that reflects the heart and soul of Austin, Texas.
This Boston transplant’s sophomore effort hearkens influences like Ryan Adams (“April Fool”), and infers an appreciation for Gram Parsons (“Angel From Liberty”). It’s country rock with an ache, one that doesn’t fade, yet never proves debilitating. Infectious enough to deny cliche, its clean production by Buckley proves more and more inviting over time, like a Buckingham-Nicks deep LP cut.
