The first installment for 2026 of Listening Sessions' new-music picks
Brilliant stuff - as ever I'm falling behind on keeping up with music coming out this year. Added all of these to my list to listen to over the next few weeks
Thank you and happy listening!
Liked the Anthony D'Alessandro track a lot.
It's a good album that evokes a certain era of jazz in an accomplished way. I like it a lot!
I’m definitely going to check out Emily Scott Robinson. Cheers!
Let me know what you think - I've loved everything I've heard by her!
Listening to Emily Scott Robinson now based on this post. There are some 1970s elements in here, a little bit of Lynn Anderson/Barbara Mandrell.
I agree - I also hear echoes of Dolly Parton, Emmylou Harris, Dottie West in her music.
Oh, wow, haven't heard Dottie West in a long while. Putting her on now.
