When our genius Crest Editor, Finn Gober, blessed me with the opportunity to do an album of the month, I nearly jumped out of my chair. But then the pressure hit. Choosing an album that would be good enough for the man whose music taste has no limits of excellence? How could I? After much contemplation, I bring to you “No Vacancy” by Treaty Oak Revival. With a modern day feel of 1970’s Bob Dylan scripture, Sam Canty’s acoustic, estimable vocals are angelic at worst and life-changing at best. Cuts like “Missed Call” offer genuinity through masterful storytelling, exploring themes of heartbreak and growth. The record offers an alternative to the great country albums of the past with modern hints of bluegrass and pure excellence.
