Lorraine Jordan & Carolina Road have released their latest project, Truegrass Again. Let’s dive right in.
The title cut “Truegrass Again” is a song that has a good bit of “swing and sass” to it, musically and lyrically. You’ll have to listen to understand what I’m talking about, but it is a great pick for a title cut. “I Don’t Want To Loose You” is an up-tempo love song that features all three vocalists. Incredible picking, incredible vocals and a catchy lyric. Your typical bluegrass song, needed on every project.
“Preaching, Praying, Singing” is a “visual” song that should take the hearts of all bluegrass fans back to the days of outdoor singings. Great melody and deliverance, vocally. “I Hear Angels Calling Your Name” is a mid-tempo ballad with a heart-warming lyric that will encourage the listener about the hope of Heaven. Although, a little “out of place” from the other songs, this is one of the best features on the project and would make a great radio pick.
Most bluegrass albums tend to be overly done, but this one is perfect. Song selection, picking, mix, everything. Well done, LJCR!
