Nashville trio Brian Lee & His Orchestra play slow songs with gospel and soul lurking in the background. Band leader Brian Lee claims that the music on Vol. 1 is "written with the driver on the road and the early morning cup of black coffee in mind". So what you get are soulful pop songs that tap you on the shoulder, telling you that life is not so bad after all.
If you like acoustic Neil Young downloading this free album is a no-brainer. Chalk up another band to watch for your Americana list. Brian Lee & His Orchestra play the kind music you are likely to hear when the Coen Brothers need a wide shot that zooms in ever so slowly. And be sure to put it on your portable MP3 thingy when you plan a long train trip.
