Short story:

Jeb Loy Nichols releases a new album, The Country Hustle, on City Country City Records in the UK.

Full article:

Nichols’ three-decade career curve must be one of the longest and most gradual in the music business, but it begins to seem as if this Wales-based American might have found a niche in which he can thrive. It’s probably his eclectic tastes - running from soul to country-blues and reggae-dub - that have made it hard for him to find a market, but his last few albums have all displayed a laid-back consistency that suggest a technologically hip J.J. Cale or a modern-day Al Green. Cuts like You Got In, Never Too Much and Regret are ingeniously understated, subtly detailed, always innovative and lush enough to become late night staples in any discerning home.
