Our Take

Ian Tyson's latest album, 'Carnero Vacquero', is a wild ride through the dusty trails of cowboy country. The Canadian folk legend, known for his work in the duo 'Ian & Sylvia', has crafted a collection of songs that are as rugged and raw as the landscape that inspired them.

From the soaring melodies of "Trail of Tears" to the foot-stomping energy of "Stampede", Tyson's songwriting is as sharp as a spur and as tender as a rawhide saddle. His weathered voice carries the weight of years spent on the open range, and his stories of love, loss, and longing will strike a chord with anyone who's ever felt the pull of the prairie.

But what really sets 'Carnero Vacquero' apart is its sonic landscape. Producer Red Elk has layered the tracks with twangy guitars, lonesome harmonicas, and the occasional howl of a distant coyote. The result is a sound that is both timeless and timely, a blend of classic country and modern Americana that will have you reaching for your Stetson and your Spotify playlist.

So saddle up, grab your lasso, and prepare to be taken on a musical journey like no other. Ian Tyson's 'Carnero Vacquero' is a triumph of storytelling, songcraft, and sheer cowboy cool. Giddy up, partner - this one's a keeper. Hay ho, let's go!
