Six Mile Bridge "Wide Open Space"
RelaxRecords, 2019
This has an easy-going group folk vibe at the heart of the music. There are a lot of stringed instruments at work along with some keys. This was recorded in Ireland and Germany and there are Irish and continental styles at work here, along with a touch of North America and Africa on occasion. It is a nice mix of styles and some of the songs stand out enough for further listening. It is always good to hear a group effort that is more interested in a more classic folk style rather than go with a safer indie folk-rock approach. And for that reason, this record is worth a spin.
