A few different tangents this week. 80's and 90's alt ladies like tanya Donnely and Michelle Shocked. Some cartoonish hillbilly vibes like Eastbound Jesus, literally a song about a dude 'wrastlin' a bear' English lads playing the blues, Stevie Ray too, calssic Ribert Earle keen and a doozy from James McMurtry. As well as a decent chunk of awesome NZ tunes including a couple that are brand new from Miles Calder and Adam Hattaway and the Haunters.
