One day one....maybe. Seeing as my Fridays Covered section completely flopped recently, along with my job, I figure today to be as good as any to post a couple Royal City tracks, one of which happens to be...(insert suspense)...a cover. Royal City infuse folk & bluegrass with a bit of a twist, especially with their "Is This It" Spokes cover. Coming from Three Gut Records, "Under A Hollow Tree" is another fine example of what these guys are about. Refreshing.

Royal City - Is This It
Royal City - Under A Hollow Tree

Songs: Ohia is Jason Molina. "Two Blue Lights" is a delicate, short, soft song that I see as a perfect nightcap minus the bourbon. The female vocals make this track that much more enjoyable.
