PICK OF THE WEEK: John Moreland – Swallow Hill – Sunday, March 6th
Singer-songwriter John Moreland may have recently turned thirty, but judging solely by the number of releases to his credit, the maturity of his songwriting, and the road-weary tone of his voice, one might think he’s been on this planet far, far longer. Moreland’s songs flirt with country and blues, but at their heart they embody the essence of the folk tradition.
