Giving us a hat-trick of cracking Americana-flavoured posts today are longstanding MM faves Strand Of Oaks (aka Timothy Showalter) and a track from forthcoming album HEAL, which will see a release on the 24th June via Dead Oceans.

However, Goshen ’97 is a pretty radical departure from the introspective, occasionally surreal, and unique folk tales that defined his previous releases. This time we have a full-on, incendiary, ballsy roots-rocker with screaming guitars, relentless percussion and it even features a certain J Macsis playing along…

We absolutely love it. Pre-order from Rough Trade here.
