Our Take

Ah, MY DARLING CLEMENTINE & STEVE NIEVE have struck gold with their latest collaboration, Country Darkness. A match made in musical heaven, this album is a delightful blend of country twang and soulful melodies that will have you tapping your cowboy boots in no time.

From the very first track, "Long Haul," it's clear that My Darling Clementine's vocalist, Michael Weston King, and pianist Steve Nieve have a special chemistry that is a joy to listen to. King's smooth vocals effortlessly float over Nieve's beautifully intricate piano arrangements, creating a sound that is both timeless and fresh.

The standout track, "Good Year for the Roses," is a haunting ballad that showcases King's emotive storytelling and Nieve's impeccable musicianship. It's the kind of song that will stay with you long after the album has finished playing.

But it's not all slow-burners on Country Darkness. Tracks like "I Lose You" and "The Crooked Line" bring a lively energy to the album, with toe-tapping beats and catchy hooks that will have you hitting repeat.

Overall, My Darling Clementine & Steve Nieve have crafted a gem of an album with Country Darkness. It's a love letter to classic country music with a modern twist, and a testament to the enduring power of great musicians making great music together. Don't miss this one, folks. It's a keeper.
