2015 was a pretty damn good year for music. From World to wonderful to “Who the Hell was that?!?”
Although there were tons of good albums out last year, these are my personal favorites. These are the ones that stuck out to me, & found their way into my player on more than one occasion. They are (in absolutely no particular order):
The Harvest Season Band – Let Your Love Burn Bright
Anderson East – Delilah
Chris Stapleton – Traveller
Lindi Ortega – Faded Gloryville
Unknown Mortal Orchestra – Multi-Love
Daniel Romano – If I’ve Only One Time Askin’
Pokey LaFarge – Something in the Water
JD McPherson – Let the Good Times Roll
Leon Bridges – Coming Home
Ryan Adams – Live at Carnegie Hall
Shovels & Rope – Busted Jukebox Vol. 1
Warsaw Afrobeat Orchestra – Wëndelu
Emmylou Harris & Rodney Crowell – The Traveling Kind
Nathaniel Rateliff & The Night Sweats – Nathaniel Rateliff & The Night Sweats
Jason James – Jason James

Hey Chris, you have some really good picks on here. I had a chance to see JD MCPherson last year in support of that album. It was an amazing show. I am in agreement with you on about half the albums. I have not listened to the others, but I will. Nice site btw.

I have yet to see him live. I will, though. I hear he puts on a good show. Thanks for the kind words, my friend. 2016 is looking pretty good for music so far, as well.
