While many of us have enjoyed the Cohen Brother’s take on classic country radio with “You Are My Sunshine” and “Man of Constant Sorrow” providing the soundtrack to an already glorious movie, but how many of you get the Pappy O’Daniel’s Flour Hour and Fine Farina ad stuck in your head?

Tulsa Songwriter Travis Linville To Release New EP Sounds Of The Street with Nashville Session Aces/Samantha Crain Cowrites Song and Video for ”Brokenhearted #1” Out Today In 2019, while waiting for his JD McPherson-produced album I’m Still Here to move toward release (now coming in 2021), Tulsa songwriter Travis Linville found his idle hands penning songs left and right. Finding a window to enter the studio between solo tours, and dates as a sideman for Hayes Carll, Linville recorded a new EP, Sounds of the Street, in an October 2019 session at The Butcher Shoppe, the Nashville studio owned by the late John Prine and David Ferguson. And as a sad coda to the session, pandemic induced fates intervened, and The Butcher Shoppe closed shortly thereafter, making Linville’s record one of the last recorded there.  Sounds of the Street will be released on October 9, 2020.
