No Depression has been serving the Americana, alt-country and roots music community since 1995.
Was it worth the wait for Wilco? The answer is on the way, guaranteed to arrive a lot sooner than the band’s next scheduled visit to Denver.

One of America’s finest and hardest-working alternative rock/country acts is back on the road this month, resuming their tour in support of their Grammy-nominated 2011 album month, resuming their tour in support of their Grammy-nominated 2011 album,…

"You're Gonna Miss Me" is Keven McAlester's mesmerizing and haunting documentary about Texas cult-artist Roky Erickson. Roky rose to fame with the 13th Floor Elevators when they took the single "You're Gonna Miss Me" (Americana connection? Check out the guy playing jug in the video!) onto the pop charts in 1966. Roky has been credited with coining the phrase…

1.0 – What are the plans for Magic Slim & The Teardrops in 2012?

There are some days in this life that are simply golden. Contacting veteran country rocker, Richie Furay, for an interview in 2007, led to a series of articles chronicling his continuing legacy over the last ten years. For this writer, being a witness to what followed has been like days of gold.
During a 2010 interview with Richie for a feature article in No Depression, he spoke with a hint of disappointment that old friends Neil…

The road to Nebraska is littered
with the ghosts of Americana and getting there demands a humble homage to the stoic wraiths of bearded plaid shirts to navigate its precise route, writes David Newbury for Neonfiller.
It’s rare for outsiders to succeed and unknown for the path to start from…

Not being from Brooklyn, or Texas, I hadn't heard of The Mastersons, Eleanor Whitmore and Chris Masterson. It was only after hearing them on Steve Earle's last tour where they brought IT as part of The Dukes and Dutchesses that I got turned on to their sound. Watching them perform with Steve, Kelly Looney, Will Rigby and Allison Moorer, I couldn't help but feel there was a rite of passage being witnessed, a coming up of a new generation of authentic roots rockers. Chris, a member of…

And Still I Rise
Heritage Blues Orchestra
Raisin’ Music
By Grant Britt
Heritage Blues Orchestra’s sound recalls the earthy, rootsy stomp of Ry Cooder’s ‘74 release, Paradise and Lunch, tempering it with a dash of Eric Bibb, giving it a unholy mix of back porch…

I first discovered Cheyenne Marie Mize through her six-song collaboration with Bonnie Prince Billy (Will Oldham) called Among The Gold. I enjoyed it so much that I began digging around online and realized that in addition to working with Mr. Oldham, Ms. Mize has also been prolifically teaming up with the likes of Ben Sollee, Daniel Martin Moore, and her partners in her band, Maiden Radio.
Last year Maiden Radio released their second album, Lullabies, via…

If Bob Wootton didn’t start out in life sounding like Johnny Cash, then thirty years spent playing lead guitar for the big man certainly left their mark. The guitar sound is instantly recognisable, of course, but the voice is so remarkably close to that of the man in black that you feel that Johnny could have taken a few nights off every now and then and the folks would…

Although it is actually two full years, it doesn’t seem 5 minutes since Tom Russell was playing this exact same venue to about 100 people yet tonight was a complete sell-out which bode well for Roots…
