Episode 265: Two great male voices in new Americana. Cruz Contreras has been a key player in the East Tennessee music scene for twenty years, steering accomplished roots projects Robinella and the CCstringband and the Black Lillies. In 2019 he wrote and recorded his first solo album only to see the pandemic upend his plans for its big rollout. He made good use of the lost years, getting married, having a son and moving to a new place. But at last he thought it was time to release Cosmico. And I catch up with Logan Ledger who's back with his second album Golden State, a lush western-tinged album of melancholy but gorgeous songs. Both interviews took place on the same day during AmericanaFest 2023.
