Good stuff. I hadn't heard of them before. I like the Cracker/CvB vibe.

One of those bands that should have been big, but never quite got there.

Mark Knopfler and Emmylou Harris are the chocolate and peanut butter of vocals, so it's not surprising that they sound good together



The whole album is worth a listen.

I think I'm going to have to give that one a few more spins. I don't know why, I looked forward to it, really like both of them, but so far, this album just hasn't clicked.

Looking forward to listening to the new Buddy/Julie Miller album.

I like this one:

"They were basically like D&D min maxers, but instead of pissing off their DM, they destroyed the global economy. Also, instead of their DM making a level 7 paladin fight a beholder as punishment, he got a +3 sword of turning."

Hem is more on the neo-folk end of the alt-country spectrum, but they do some pretty good honky-tonk covers now and then



And some really heartbreaking originals
