Ferrell, Nefesh Mountain offer new music
Friday, January 31, 2025 – Sierra Ferrell released a deluxe edition of "Trail of Flowers" today. The well-received album contains two new songs, although both previously released in different recordings. "The Garden" is from the soundtrack of "The Hunger Games: The Ballad of Songbirds & Snakes." The other new song is the classic "Don't Let Your Deal Go Down," which she orginally released in 2021.
Nefesh Mountain, the band helmed by husband-and-wife Eric Lindberg and Doni Zasloff is out with "Beacons." The lengthy disc - 18 songs, 91 minutes - goes for more of an Americana sound, although the band also incorporates bluegrass into the mix. Helping out were Stuart Duncan on fiddle, Jerry Douglas on Dobro, Sam Bush on mandolin, Rob McCoury on banjo, Cody Kilby on guitar and Mark Schatz on bass. Zasloff has said this is the band's most personal album.

Sierra Ferrell is the Queen of Americana, having picked up multiple awards at their 2024 Americana awards show, but one has to question whether this Deluxe Edition of "Trail of Flowers" is really necessary. It's not as if it's in need of remastering, and it only includes two new songs, neither of which is truly new.
The first new song is Ferrell's slowed down take on the bluegrass standard "Don't Let Your Deal Go Down," imbued by her fiddle, Seth ...
Sierra Ferrell's songs will appeal to fans of Americana music, especially the more eclectic ones. Her "Long Time Coming" album incorporates plenty of different styles, so the term 'old timey' likely fits it best. For example, "At The End Of The Rainbow" – with its bluesy, woozy horn section – sounds like an early jazz era speakeasy number. With its steel guitar and fiddle, "Bells Of Every Chapel" is far more country-ish, however. ...
