featuring the very best of americana, alt.country and roots music
December 8, 2024
Scott Foley, purveyor of dust
This time of year we're used to the relative dregs. We (almost) never present anything in our ROUTES-casts that we can't stand behind. It's just during the holidays we have to dig a bit deeper to find new stuff. This week, however, has been a gift and a present, a playlist overflowing with excellent music. There will be no settling this Episode. Even as we throw furniture on the fire to keep warm while we stay up late preparing our end-of-year assessments. Next on the docket is our favorite songs list, which we'll debut on Friday, December 13 (hint: we're already very close to finishing this).
