Nelons - The Americana Sessions (2017)

The word "Americana" is a genre-trawling word these days. It can be used to encompass anything from country to alternative rock to folk to rock to bluegrass to old time Gospel music. And this is how the Nelons are giving definition to this nebulous word here too. "The Americana Sessions" is a hotchpotch of 9 cross-genre covers ranging from Glen Campbell's "Gentle on My Mind" to Vanessa Williams' "Colors of the Wind" to Simon and Garfunkel's "Bridge Over Troubled Waters" to Merle Haggard's "Mama Tried" to Sonya Isaacs' oft forgotten gem "Battlefield." And to satisfy those who prefer original songs, producer Jason Clark, Reba Rambo-McGuire and Donny McGuire have crafted the new song "Daddy and Sons."
