The 1964 solo debut record from Doc Watson didn't just define guitar flat-picking for his generation and those to come (check "Black Mountain Rag"), but it also straddled American music traditions with amazing aplomb. Just try classifying this record: is it folk? Country? Bluegrass? The truth is, it's all of those things, and more. It's hilarious ("Intoxicated Rat"), mournful ("Little Omie Wise"), defiantly joyful ("Sittin' on Top of the World"), starkly existential ("Country Blues"), and even goofy ("Born About Six Thousand Years Ago"). But most of all, it's Doc Watson, the first and perhaps most lasting salvo from an American music giant. And, as such, it's one of the fundamental albums of American roots music, and a profound and deeply enjoyable listening experience. We at Real Gone Music are proud to bring you this all-time classic in it's original mono, pressed in deep river blue vinyl at Gotta Groove Records.

Twelve years in the making, a new record by Portland's idiosyncratic master of ultra modern folk music Dragging An Ox Through Water. Old school electronic oscillations and blips meet solid guitar playing and singing. The lyrics alone are worth the price of admission. Nothing obvious is ever said and every word gleans with layers of meaning. Dragging An Ox Through Water is Brian Mumfords' cult long running art music project. Beloved in Portland. Willfully underground. The real stuff. A modern masterpiece.

He returned home to Muscle Shoals lick his wounds and craft his third album, with producers Ben Tanner (Alabama Shakes) and John Paul White (The Civil Wars) at the helm. "This record is about me getting honest with myself," says Dylan. "I had to let the guilt about the past go and find a new truth within myself. This time, I felt like I really had something to say".

Elizabeth Ziman is the singer-songwriter and creative force behind Elizabeth and The Catapult, known for her piano-driven compositions, sharp emotional insight,and disarming honesty, and who has built a career on songs that balance wit and vulnerability with striking precision. She's toured with the likes of Sara Bareillesand Kishi Bash i ; collaborated with with Esperanza Spalding, Gillian Welch, Blake Mills and Ben Folds; scored, with Paul Brill; and her songs have been featured innational television campaigns for Google, Amazon, Sky TV, and So You Think You Can Dance.Responsible Friend is an album about the ways in which we show up for one another. What does it mean to be a responsible friend to be there for someone you lovewithout trying to save them? The first lesson I learned about caregiving, says Elizabeth, is that I need to put on my own oxygen mask before I can help anyoneelse. The next lesson (and the one you won't find in an airline seat-back) was that no matter how much I wanted to, I couldn't take away anyones pain. I wasntthere to fix anyone. I just had to accept them on their own terms. That philosophy runs throughout the album, with songs about a family members passing, a friendliving with long COVID, and the shared burden of a society steeped in conflict and injustice. I realized that everyone I knew, including myself, was being asked toprocess an enormous amount of grief at an alarming pace, she says. Writing these songs became my way to surrender to those experiences and slow down enough tobe fully present for the people in my life.Some of the songs on Responsible Friend are joyful dedications; others feel more like letters Elizabeth wasnt sure she wanted to send. Taken together, it's a recordabout slowing down in a world that keeps accelerating. It's a commitment to friends, family, and self, at a time when everyone seems to be carrying more than they canreasonably hold. With Responsible Friend, Elizabeth Ziman delivers a record that feels both intimate and expansive, an unflinching reflection on care, grief, and thestuff it takes to keep showing up.

"I Love You Always No Matter What Happens" is the hotly anticipated debut LP release from New Orleans-based siren and songwriter Gina Leslie, a follow-up to her beloved 2022 EP "No, You're Crying." Through 10 songs, Leslie explores the depths of her inner world and leaves it all on the table, wrapped in luscious soundscapes, gorgeous harmonies, and tender, insightful songwriting. Floating between country and jazz, this album encapsulates many sonic worlds with a range of tones and emotions. Recorded alongside co-producer and multi-instrumentalist Nat Smith at his home studio in Nashville, this raw and expressive album is like a hug to the wounded child within-an olive branch, a white flag. "I Love You Always No Matter What Happens" is not only a mantra to the self, but a call to reclaim self-acceptance in a society hell-bent on telling us we aren't good enough. Jump in, the water's warm.

"Goldford's soul music is rooted in truth. On his breakout EP "Orange Blossoms," his raw, unvarnished songs are a balance of introspection and catharsis, grappling with heartbreak, healing, and the quiet revelations that come with growth. After spending a decade in corporate America, the St. Louis native (now based in Los Angeles) turned to music as a means of survival following a devastating personal loss. "I was more afraid of dying with regret than I was of failing," he says of his decision to finally choose the path at 30, a choice that set his entire trajectory in motion. That initial fearlessness has since fueled extraordinary momentum. Goldford has rapidly become one of the most compelling emerging voices in contemporary music.

First press on vinyl! Have A Great Life, the 2019 album from Harley Poe.This Horror Folk Punk album is cheerfully morbid, with songs that all border on grotesque, creepy, or melancholy paired with upbeat music. A slight edge of classic horror in metaphors about life & love. -K. McLaughlinBest of 2019: Harley Poe is a controversial group in the Folk Punk scene, due to their lack of filter when it comes to lyrical content. For me, I see the artist using certain metaphors as a sardonic view on the world, and the writer's inner demons, while others feel as though their use of said metaphors can be a trigger. Either way, this album, absent of most of the "problem" lyrics, has Harley Poe right back where they are comfortable: Horror mixed with Folk Punk and Sarcasm. The intro guitar to "Eat Shit and Die" really takes the cake for me, musically, and the washboard compliments it so well, which blend together for a perfect base for Joe's intelligent, yet controversial, lyrics to blend into my favorite track of the album. -David Wilkins, Punk News50 Best Records of 2019: When it comes to quality folk punk bands there's not a lot to find anymore, especially with artists like AJJ (Andrew Jackson Jihad) and Against Me! Shifting their focus from the genre. Perhaps that's why this album sounds so refreshing? It's not that the group is doing something new for them, it's still catchy, mostly up-tempo tracks focused done on acoustic instruments and focused on dark subject matter. Even though the style has been done before, there's still something to be said about how great dark themes played over music backed by instruments like a kazoo or a glockenspiel can deeply impact the listener and even serve as a type of therapy. -Medium

Falling Backwards' is the debut album from Him & Earl via Wah Wah 45s, serving up a mystic brew of desert blues, English folk, Americana, and stirring southern soul, with tentacles stretching out into psychedelia and prog, across 11 hot and hazy tracks. Singer-songwriter Olly Him and DJ, producer, and composer Wyndham Earl both have deeply-dug roots in the south coast of England; with the former making his name as a solo artist before exploring his soulful folk/prog sound with a number of live acts, and the latter collaborating on albums and sharing stages with Bonobo, Khruangbin, Alice Russell, and TM Juke, having remixes released by Tru Thoughts and Mr Bongo Records, and releasing his solo projects on his Time Spun imprint. The pair first met in 2015 when Wyndham produced some songs for now defunct hypnotic Afro-folk outfit Creatures Of The Deep, of which Olly was a founder member. They instantly clicked, but after the group broke up it was a few years before serendipity brought them back together; a chance encounter at a gig saw them begin hatching plans to make a full album under the name Him & Earl with Olly writing the songs and Wyndham arranging and producing the project. After so long floating in the creative ether, the connective power of these songs has been strikingly immediate. The debut Him & Earl live show in early 2026, before any tracks had even come out, blew Olly and Wyndham's expectations out of the water as their five-piece band found themselves toe-to-toe with a sellout crowd - a sweaty room full of happy music fans, on an otherwise bleak January night, throwing shapes to live percussion showdowns, losing themselves in psychedelic guitar and bass wig-outs, and singing along to choruses they'd never heard a note of before. Since then, the first two singles 'Bottled Up' and 'Away' have had high profile airplay from the likes of BBC 6 Music's Huw Stephens and Cerys Matthews, and Radio X's John Kennedy, adding to widespread tastemaker and specialist support around the world, as excitement builds for the album. The LP's introspective and philosophical lyrics are brought to life by a sonorous yet strangely uplifting sound palette that morphs by stealth into a darkly propulsive, psychedelic and bluesy trip. Opening song 'Away' taps straight into a key theme of the record - journeying, in both a physical and mental sense, and the quest to move on and embrace the unknown - and it's sunny guitars, trumpet and violin barely even hint at the tumultuous sonic adventure that's set to unfold. A stronger indication comes in the title track,'Falling Backwards', as it's elegant web of staccato finger-picked hook, fluid piano melodies and strings unfurls into a six-minute exploration of what Olly describes as 'going through every day normality while feeling close to chaos and like things could fall apart at any moment when there is a myriad of di?erent things holding everything together and if one thing goes wrong everything can fall apart around it.

Welsh multi-instrumentalist and producer Huw Marc Bennett sinks his hands deep into the soil of South Wales, reimagining traditional melodies from the Morgannwg/Glamorgan region through an earth-toned palette of folk, jazz, and psychedelic roots. 'Heol Las' is ancient music seen through a modern prism; acoustic textures rubbing up against hypnotic grooves, field-worn stories refracted into new shapes. Every track on the album is either drawn directly from, or woven around, archival tunes of the region. Bennett's approach is reverent yet expansive, pulling history into the present while staying grounded in community, landscape, and lived culture. Bennett says, 'On this record there are versions, interpretations, and tunes influenced by cerddoriaeth werin, the folk music of Morgannwg; The place I was born, I was raised in, and revisit to feel grounded. The melodies you hear were given, found, and invented.'Tracklisting:A1. Carol Haf (Summer Carol)A2. y Fedwen (The Birch) A3. Can y Saer Maen (Stonemason's Song)A4.

Originally released in 2020, Japanese singer-songwriter and multi-instrumentalist Ichiko Aoba's seventh studio album, Windswept Adan, was a critically acclaimed masterpiece that firmly established her on the global stage. Marking a significant departure from her earlier, more solitary works, Aoba collaborated with composer Taro Umebayashi to craft a mesmerising and richly imaginative concept album that moves fluidly between ambient psych-folk, chamber classical, and jazz-inflected composition. Conceived as the soundtrack to an imaginary film, Windswept Adan follows a young girl exiled from her homeland to the mythic island of Adan - a lush, otherworldly place filled with strange creatures, abundant flora and fauna, and no spoken language. It's orchestral textures and vivid sound design create an immersive, cinematic world. The iconic cover art reflects the album's intricate world-building, brought to life by creative director Kodai Kobayashi following extensive research trips to the southern islands of Japan. This long-awaited reissue is pressed on black eco-mix vinyl, in an effort to be as sustainable as possible.

Love Forever, our 2025 set of demos from Grammy-winning singer-songwriter Jackie DeShannon, set collector hearts a-flutter all over the world with it's collection of introspective, folk rock-flavored tunes drawn from her unreleased recordings for Metric Music Publishing. Now, we're one-upping ourselves with Girl of Yesterday-Acoustic Folk Demos, a collection of COMPLETELY UNRELEASED acoustic folk demos from Jackie, taken from the same rich source of material. Folk music came naturally to Jackie. She got her start singing gospel at home and in church as a child in her native Kentucky, and then singing country songs in her teens on her own weekly radio show. And her first, self-titled album for Liberty in 1963 consisted entirely of folk repertoire. But that album only featured folk songs written by other artists. Girl of Yesterday-Acoustic Folk Demos, on the other hand, presents a dozen tunes, all penned by Jackie for an album distributed by Metric in 1964. Accompanied only by her own accomplished fingerpicked acoustic guitar, DeShannon delivered a stunning set of heart-rendingly sung, haunting music imbued with the doubt, confusion, and excitement of finding adult identity. Although grounded in acoustic folk, it looked forward to both folk-rock and the singer-songwriter era in it's lyrical maturity and melodic complexity. Only 500 to 1000 copies were pressed in November 1964, it's availability limited to various A&R personnel and other music industry staff who made decisions with recording artists looking for material. With Girl of Yesterday-Acoustic Folk Demos, this remarkable material finally gains the exposure it deserves. Among the highlights are a couple of songs that were soon covered by famous artists. Certainly the most renowned is "Don't Doubt Yourself, Babe," given a Bo Diddley beat by The Byrds (Jackie was a huge Byrds booster and fan) on their Top Ten 1965 debut album Mr. Tambourine Man, though it was titled "It's Gonna Be All Right" on her far folkier arrangement on the original Metric Music demo LP. And Marianne Faithfull covered the superbly bittersweet "With You in Mind" on her 1967 album Love in a Mist. We also hear the first appearance of "Splendor in the Grass," later a 1966 DeShannon single given backing by The Byrds. Richie Unterberger's notes feature candid recollections from Jackie about the motivations behind the songs and the vibrant, mid-'60s LA scene from which they emerged. Remastered by Mike Milchner at Sonic Vision and featuring photos from Jackie's private collection, Girl of Yesterday-Acoustic Folk Demos is available in a beige vinyl edition or on compact disc. A missing and utterly charming chapter in both Jackie's own evolution and the progression of American folk and pop to more sophisticated forms.

How does an artist follow a critically-acclaimed breakthrough record like Southeastern? For Jason Isbell, the answer was Something More Than Free. With songs like "24 Frames," "Flagship," and "Children of Children," the 2015 album found Isbell tackling the subjects he knows best: the dignity of work, the difficulty of love, the friction between the present and the past. Something More Than Free further established the North Alabama native as a bonafide songwriter, and also netted him his first two Grammy Awards, for Americana Album of the Year, and for American Roots Song of the Year ("24 Frames.")
10 years later, Something More Than Free has been re-mixed by the legendary Sylvia Massy (Prince, Johnny Cash, Tom Petty), breathing new life into these now classic songs in the Isbell canon. And as a cherry on top, the man has broken his normal rule and included a b-side here. "Should I Go Missing" is a bluesy jammer highlighted by Isbell's slide guitar playing. If we're lucky, it will become a staple at his upcoming live shows.

Black & White Splash Vinyl. Jobi Riccio is stepping into her next chapter with Face The Feeling, her forthcoming album on Yep Roc Records due May 15. An "Emerging Act of the Year" nominee from the Americana Music Association and a John Prine Songwriters Fellowship honoree, Riccio first broke through with her 2023 debut Whiplash, a coming-of-age record rooted in folk and country traditions. On Face The Feeling, she pushes far beyond those foundations, embracing a bolder, electric, indie-rock-driven sound that mirrors the album's emotional depth. Where Whiplash captured the restless search for escape, Face The Feeling finds Riccio choosing to stay, confronting grief, rage, self-doubt, desire, and devotion head-on. Written between Colorado and Nashville and co-produced with longtime collaborators Isaiah Beard and Jesse Timm, the album balances light and dark, restraint and release, as Riccio leans into discomfort as a path toward growth. Songs like "Pilar, NM," "Wildfire Season," and "Doesn't Matter" reveal an artist willing to sit inside complicated feelings rather than outrun them. Having performed at the Grand Ole Opry, made her national television debut on CBS Saturday Morning, and toured with Lucius, Jason Isbell, and Iron & Wine, Riccio arrives at Face The Feeling with clarity and confidence. The result is her most expansive work yet: a fearless excavation of self and a declaration of artistic evolution.
Tracklist:
A Little At A Time
The Ridge
Pilar, NM
Love Of The Song
Buzzkill

The result is Miller’s most ambitious work to date — a spacious, textured collection, blending road-worn storytelling, fuzzy atmospheres, and reflections on movement, memory, and change. Rooted in his West Virginia past yet shaped by constant travel, The Great Unknowing captures an artist trusting the process, embracing risk, and letting the groove lead the way.
