Dawn Landes/ ‘Meet Me At The River’/ Yep Roc Records
Landes’ decade-plus career includes sound engineering for Philip Glass, recording a French yé-yé album and collaborating with Sufjan Stevens, Norah Jones and Andrew Bird. Her latest album, however, is her boldest turn yet – a spontaneous yet fruitful collaboration with the formerly retired Nashville legend Fred Foster (Roy Orbison, Dolly Parton, Kris Kristofferson). Moving to Nashville last year, Landes uses her adopted home’s rich history of music and tradition to fuel her songs of heartbreak (“Why They Name Whiskey After Men”), wanderlust (“Traveling”) and her poignant take on Jimmy Driftwood’s political “What Is The Color Of The Soul of Man.”
