Known to alternative music fans as the leader of the 'psychobilly' band Tiger Army, Nick 13 has been talking about making a solo country music record for many years. Read on to find out how the recording turned out.

Brian Wright is an up and coming singer/songwriter signed to Sugar Hill Records. Check out this music video for a song from the upcoming House On Fire album. 

When you get to the lauded level that the Nitty Gritty Dirt Band has gotten to, it's easy to 'coast' with new releases that don't really have any difference from what's found in past recordings.  Thankfully, the NGDB isn't that kind of band.

Here's the 2nd single from Joey+Rory's debut album "The Life Of A Song."

At the suggestion of friends, Joey+Rory decided to enter CMT's "Can You Duet" despite never really actively singing together.  The husband-and-wife team wound up in the Top 3 of the show and gained a lot of loyal fans in the process. "The Life Of A Song" is their debut album and it showcases the suparstar vocals of Joey paired with her husband's wonderful songwriting.  It sounds perfect but do they have the songs to break through?

Coming virtually out of nowhere with a compelling, made-for-TV love story, Joey + Rory have proven that talent rises to the top.  Proof of that is this single which is Roughstock's 28th favorite single of the year.  Not bad for a duo that really didn't perform as one before 2008.

Have you ever just met someone and felt like you were long-time friends with them? That's what it felt like when I recently met Joey Martin and Rory Feek, the husband and wife duo known as Joey+Rory. In the first part of a two-part interview, we learn about the reasons behind trying out for the show "Can You Duet." 

In part two of the Roughstock Interview, Joey discusses their album, how her relationship with Rory was formed and briefly about another passion, cooking and baking.

Rattlin’ Bones, the new album from Kasey Chambers and her husband Shane Nicholson is a quite reminder of how good a country album can be when it is stripped back to its purist and most simple form.   Rootsy, almost bluegrass, instrumentation permeates the entire release giving it an Appalachian feel that is accentuated by an abundance of minor key ballads.

The big news for Duhks fans, prior to the release of this album, was that lead singer Jess Havey and drummer Scott Senior left the band and were replaced by Sarah and Christian Dugas respectively.  With that cast change can longtime fans expect more of the same or a profound difference?
