2019 . The Small Glories make their US debut with Assiniboine & The Red, an album that celebrates the Canadian Prairies.

The duo's onstage chemistry and humor complements their energetic live performances and buoyant, Americana-inflected folk songs. Luft and Edwards' exuberant harmonies bring to mind such duos as the Civil Wars and Shovels & Rope, but with a Northern spin. The album's songs are all inspired by places, from InchAlberta,Inch the opener, to Winnipeg,Inch a spirited celebration of their hometown. Inch

What It Is - Hayes Carll - On What It Is, the Houston, TX troubadour Hayes Carll is leaving the past behind. InchI want to dig in so this life doesn't just pass me by. The more engaged I am the more meaning it all has. I want that to be reflected in the work,Inch Carll says. The new album covers a broad range of topics both timely and constant; the desire to bridge the country's political divide, the ups and downs of relationships, and the challenge to stay present in your life as it goes by. What It Is continues the artistic risk-taking initiated by 2016's Lovers and Leavers; his voice is strong and assured, and his songwriting as truthful as ever.
