Editorial Reviews

"...some of the loveliest duetting since Emmylou took up with Gram."
Product Description
The simply titled country e.p. is a five-song collection for which singer/songwriters Anais Mitchell and Rachel Ries each penned two songs, as well as covering a tune by long-time comrade Louis Ledford. The relaxed, vintage production features musicians from the artists' respective Boston and Chicago communities and the vocal harmonies they worked out for their tours.
The e.p. is released in a unique format: a 7" vinyl record includes three of the tracks but comes with a CD version of all five. The 7" component was important to the artists. "We knew it wasn't the most rational or efficient way to put the recording out there," says Ries, "but we both felt there was something worthwhile about the tactile quality of vinyl and lacquer." Adds Mitchell, "Beauty is inefficient."

5.0 out of 5 stars
Amazing songs! Amazing voices and performances!,
This review is from: Country E.P. (Vinyl)
I was lucky enough to hear this EP. A friend of mine, Zach Berkman (his album Stumble is highly recommended if you like this EP) knows Rachel Ries and was raving about this recording.
It is truly a fantastic EP. The songs are so lyrically and melodically mature. What really kills me are their voices that weave in and out of the intricate melodies and complement each other perfectly. This is a heartbreakingly gorgeous record with truly wonderful songs.
