It's quietly been quite a good year for Americana/Roots records. Amanda Shires released a fantastic album. But the one I want to tell you all about is Life Ain't That Long by Rich Krueger. It's his debut album, he's a 58 year old neonatal doctor from Chicago who happens to be a fantastic songwriter.

Nice tune, but just once I'd like to hear one of these guys play a chord that can't be found within the first three pages of the Mel Bay Beginner Guitar Method Vol. 1

she knows a lot of chords
You are right about the chords but it'd be better if she would not sing.

I made it about twenty seconds into that one

she's great but she already has two threads of her own! (for Big Thief and solo work)

I have never heard of this person but that's some of the most insufferable singing I have heard in a long time. Sorry.

tbf that's by some distance as out-there/incantative as her vocals get, stuff like "cradle" and "womb" are more representative
