Wildwood Kin – Turning Tides
I played with Wildwood Kin a few years ago and thought they were great – they create interesting sounds, they're always swapping instruments, they've got a good blend of voices. They sit outside folk, but you still hear their interest in it in their music. I thought I'd pick a few recent folk-rock-inspired records I've loved from recent years, so that's why this is here!
