From North Carolina comes the debut release from Americana band, Yellow Feather, which features vocalist Casey Kristofferson (daughter of Kris Kristofferson) and band leader/principal songwriter Hunter Begley. Their new album titled "And Gold" includes a dozen tracks, beginning with the slow, country-blues of "If You Ain't Cheatin'," before they pick the tempo up with the thick, heavy stomp rhythm "Swallow You Down." The band reflects the early days of Ryan Adams' band, WhiskeyTown with the slow sway of "Sarah Accidentally," then deliver the country rock vibe of "Lucille." Yellow Feather simplify their sound with "Key Of C" and the acoustic ballad "Pirate's Love Song." They finish up their new album with country swing of "Couch Farm" and the back porch, banjo-infused "Lost All Direction."
