Heart Like a Levee
Merge Records
life and death, art and family, beauty and darkness are unreconciled but writ-large for the North Carolinians as they ease down the road on yet another beautifully realised album.
Whilst these songs are hard-won for songwriter MC Taylor, by this point these guys make world-weary American gospel folk sound as easy as a hammock on dusty veranda on a warm summers evening. The supporting cast is a superior crew, with The Cook Brothers, Phil and Bradley from the band Megafan, drummer Matt McCaughan (Bon Iver), plus Tift Merritt on backup vocals. “lived-in and true to life…truly cuts like a knife” – rolling stone
