Miranda Easten – Concrete & Honey (13th Floor Album Review)
Miranda Easten has released Concrete & Honey an album that, as the title indicates, collects some sweet sounds made possible by an artist willing to put in the hard yards.
Holly Arrowsmith – Blue Dreams (Leather Jacket Records)
Holly Arrowsmith albums come to us at a snail’s pace. This is Holly’s third long player…that’s three albums since her debut back in 2015.
