Other than being much more attractive than myself, Justin Rutledge has a new album out called “The Early Widows”. This album is something I was really looking forward to. The album is chock full of Justin’s signature delicate vocals over numerous ballads with just a bit of twang for good measure. Ever since his fantastic track “Alberta Breeze” from his Man Descending album from a couple of years back, I can’t get enough of this guy. I know the die hard fans will go to an earlier album “The Devil On a Bench in Stanley Park”, which was pretty darn great but Man Descending is a closer musical partner to his latest release. Current favourite track is “Carry On”, “Islands” or even “All Around This World” – each one molasses slow, beautiful vocals and the exact type of song I think of when Justin Rutledge comes to mind.
Enjoy the lead off single and video for “Be A Man” below!

p.s. I know I am a week late with this, but I just had to make sure something made it on Slowcoustic for the new album!

Before I even read your opening line Sandy, I must admit a little ‘hello!’ escaped my lips as I checked out that press photo up there! An admiring check-that-out kinda hello, that is.
Course, the music’s good too. Ahem.
