Bare Bones’ self-titled sophmore EP. is a stunning nod to the group’s alt- country roots. Vocals are layered over a dripping violin, a weary steel guitar and a locked in rythm section, taking one back to a time that once was.

Check out the irresistible Hope & Feather, which gallops along on the back of perfectly judged fiddle and drums and calls to mind The Builders & The Butchers and Elliott Brood, or even the long forgotten (and criminally underrated) British heroes of the hoedown, the mighty Cropdusters.
