Dustbowl Revival - Enemy

LCM Song Of The Day: ‘Enemy’ - Dustbowl Revival

The highly addictive ‘Enemy’ is one of my favourite tracks from the excellent new album ‘Is It You, Is It Me’ by California based Dustbowl Revival. I loved this live last year in London and the album version certainly don’t disappoint. A toe-tapping sing-a-long with rich big hook brass arrangements and great vocals from Liz

Dustbowl Revival has always been about pushing the boundaries of what American roots music can be. In many ways, they could have continued creating joyful, booty-shaking songs and cut-to-heart folk-rock ballads that lift up their transcendent live shows - and mining new energetic material from the place where folk music, funk and soul meet.

But the band’s newest album, Is It You, Is It Me, coming January 31 via their own Medium Expectations label and Nashville’s Thirty Tigers, is something different entirely. Produced by Sam Kassirer [Lake Street Dive, Josh Ritter, David Ramirez] and engineered by Brian Joseph [Bon Iver, Local Natives, Sufjan Stevens], it represents the latest stage in a band that never stops evolving and refuses to stand still.
