The Silos - Tennessee Fire

[bandcampsnoop]

11/8/23.

I've been a fan of Sophomore Lounge for years. From Bill Direen to Huevos, Ryan Davis' label (originally in Louisville, now in Jeffersonville, Indiana) has been releasing diverse sounds for going on 20 years.

It seems appropriate that the label's breakout release would feature Davis (also in State Champion) himself under the name Ryan Davis & the Roadhouse Band. Pitchfork reviewed it on November 3rd and gave it an impressive 7.9. This LP brings to mind Wilco, The Jayhawks, Son Volt and The Silos. One of the fans who bought this wrote, "David Berman was right when he called Ryan our [Louisville's] best living lyricist."

Joan Shelley is a guest vocalist. Check out her split single with Myriam Gendron on No Quarter.

Apparently running brings out thoughts I never knew I had because the thought of Kensi FaceTiming Deeks instead of calling him in the Silos came to me out of nowhere. It would’ve been even more gut wrenching.
