About No Depression

This website was launched in Feb. 2009 as a way to continue more than a decade of No Depression's coverage and service to the Americana and roots music community.

However, long before this site was born, No Depression was launched as a quarterly print magazine covering alternative- country music in 1995. The publication was co-founded by Peter Blackstock and Grant Alden, who brought in Kyla Fairchild as a co-publisher shortly thereafter. Over the course of thirteen years, No Depression gradually grew into one of the nation's most prominent and broad-ranging bimonthly music publications until it ceased print operations in June 2008. Along the way, No Depression received Utne Reader Independent Press Awards for Arts & Literature coverage, and was cited as one of the nation's Top 20 magazines of any kind in 2004 by the Chicago Tribune.

Marty Stuart interview contest and free album stream of 'Nashville Volume 1: Tear the Woodpile Down'

**NOTE: This contest is now closed. We will announce the ten winners and share Marty's answers to your questions as soon as we receive them. Thank you to everyone who entered.

Everyone's always talking about how we can possibly distinguish between contemporary country music and whatever Americana/roots/alt-country/outlaw/indie music is. Marty Stuart summed it up pretty well when he said, "The most outlaw thing you can do in Nashville, Tennessee, today is play country…

No Depression's 2012 South by Southwest Showcase Lineup

Each year, the music industry and music fans gather in Austin, Tex., to celebrate music itself. Granted there's plenty of schmoozing and business happening, too, but for one short week live music is king across Austin - from clubs on 6th Street to parking lots in South Austin, and beyond.

Once again, we'll be joining the fray in 2012 with a No Depression Showcase at the Continental Club on Wednesday, Mar. 14

If you're heading to Austin for…

Happy to do our part to support you Kyla b/c you have done the heavy lifting keeping ND alive that in turn has become vital to supporting, educating and perpetuating  American roots music, which includes all of us in zydeco and Cajun music as well.  You do damn nice work Kyla. All the best for a joyful and healthy 2012!

Very cool

Just got a really nice email from Kyla thanking me for a modest donation. It's the least I can do and honestly we feel a certain level of resposibility to support such high quality work like ND. It's why we support the Blues Foundation, MusiCares, The Louisiana Cultural Economy Foundation and other orgs/NGO's that support blues/roots. I am an American Roots music artist. I will own this title 'til I die, so I better do my part now to make it count, so that I'll have no regrets later. Peace, love and zydeco y'all!

Known as “The Beehive Queen” for her outrageous, mile-high hairdo, Christine Ohlman is the current, long-time vocalist with the Saturday Night Live Band and rocks the house with her mix of blues and Americana.
