Mixtape: Deep In The Valley

A few years back I started putting together mixes that mapped out a current wave of Cosmic Americana and alt-country that’s been solidifying lately and this year’s entry is another excellent round-up of faves. With some familiar names in tow and quite a few newcomers to the lineup this time, Deep In The Valley is a perfect companion to sunset hues and quiet contemplation. If the excellent hits keep coming, then this won’t be the last one, but for now sink into some of the past couple of years’ best alt-country.
