Kasey Chambers is one of my favourite Australian artists. Her first three solo albums hold a very special place within my collection and are albums I constantly find myself going back to. Kasey’s new album Rattlin’ Bones, with her husband Shane Nicholson, heralds a welcome return to her country roots. The album covers bluegrass, folk ballads, hillbilly and contemporary country. Their vocals complement each other and the song writing is excellent – nearly all are co-written by Kasey and Shane. Standout tracks include Once In A While, Monkey on a Wire, Wildflower and The Devil’s Inside My Head. I saw Kasey and Shane perform the entire album recently at The Corner and it was a joyous occasion. Rattlin’ Bones marks a period of renewal and regeneration for Kasey Chambers.
