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.

Listen to new music from the Mavericks, win a copy of the disc
**NOTE: This contest is now closed and winners have been chosen. Congratulations to Rhonda Hunter and Kat Keith, and thanks to everyone who entered!
The Mavericks have the kind of story that would probably not even be possible in the musical landscape of 2013. For one thing, the troupe formed after singer-songwriter Raul Malo met Robert Reynolds at a record store (remember those?). They discovered they had a similar taste in music and were quite capable of…

Just noticed you still have some back-issues for sale. I was an original subscriber and am missing only a couple of issues I think. Have been meaning to track the missing issues down for years. I think I will break them out this weekend and see what I need. Hope you still have copies in your archives.
Loved that MAG but I love your 'lectric edition just as much. Keep on keeping on.

RP N10 said… Is there a way to stop people posting auto start videos. There's one starts up now when I go to the ND home page. Took me a while to work out where it was coming from as it drowned out the music I was listening to at the same time. Probably one of those street team things. Thanks

Ronald L Shelton said… I would like to get the word out about the 2012 Oak Grove Folk Music Festival (www.oakgrovefestival.com) on 8/3/12, 8/4/12 & 8/5/12 at the Oak Grove Theater in Verona, VA.
Featured acts include:
John McCuthceon
The Steel Wheels
Tracy Grammer
Sierra Hull & Highway 111
Michael Reno Harrell
Chamomile and Whiskey
This festival, going on for 33 years, is the best small festival you never heard of and would be a good excuse to visit the Shenandoah Valley and Staunton, VA. (www.visitstaunton.com). Come find out why Smithsonian magazine listed Staunton as a top ten small town in the country!

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!

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!
