It’s an audio feast for Americana lovers.
It’s an audio feast for Americana lovers.
Here are five new collections to warm your rootsy hearts. There’s not a loser in the bunch.
In fact, I can’t even decide which one is the Disc of the Day. I will tell you this: The Malcolm
Holcombe and Walter Hyatt CDs are going into heavy rotation at my house at once. And Dutch Henry is definitely staying near the stereo, too.

—This four-piece Michigan pop/rock band is now being promoted, publicized and managed out of Nashville. This is the lead off track and title tune to a fantastically melodic collection. It is the kind of sound that once you’ve heard it, you can’t wait to play it for somebody else.
Infectious and energetic and just plain fun. They’re aiming for Americana acceptance, particularly with tracks like the snarky "44 Days," but I see no reason why mainstream pop shouldn’t have a shot at this too.

VINTAGE GUITAR PLAYER MAGAZINE HAD THIS TO SAY ABOUT DUTCH HENRY:
Dutch Henry writes the kind of Pop-Rock that while never being completely out of fashion, probably won't be Top 40 any time soon. The title cut is a bouncy pop piece, much like many of the songs here, and calls to mind the Beatles or Beach Boys. Sure, other bands do the same thing, but not as well. The song has a unique lyric about outer space, and the guitars by John Merchant and Greg Miller are suitably trippy. Throughout this disc, guitars form and dominate the songs in part because Merchant and Miller sound joined at the hip. "Smile" is a great example, with its melodic, intertwining guitars. "Aron Gordon" is oddly sweet country-pop that calls to mind the likes of NRBQ, with plenty of hot country playing. "Lonely You" is a hugely quirky pop song and its solo, filled with hints of jazz, mixes marvelously with the Beach Boys-style background vocals that highlight the song.
This Michigan band has all the tools needed in this day and age: they write great songs, the musicians are top-notch, and they play music that sticks in the head - JH
