…Just 24, Natalie Del Carmen has already released two albums, a couple of singles, and an EP. She hails from Los Angeles, where she returned to after gaining a Bachelor’s degree in Music (with a songwriting focus) from the famed Berklee College of Music in Boston.

Few artists are as closely tied to the foundation of country music as Willie Nelson. Before the outlaw movement, before the braids and bandanas, Nelson was a Nashville songwriter absorbing the work of Hank Williams, Ernest Tubb, and Merle Travis.
Album release dates are usually arbitrary, utilitarian business decisions, devoid of any tangible meaning. But once in a great while, an artist releases an album on or near a date that dovetails perfectly with the album’s theme. Such is the case with
