Local troubadour Jordie Lane has teamed up with now Melbourne-based Canadian songstress Tracy McNeil to deliver one of the more beautiful albums of recent times. Although recorded in Brunswick, a rich stream of Americana roots and bluegrass runs through the album, evoking such luminaries as Gillian Welch and David Rawlings (particularly the haunting Lost), Flying Burrito Brothers and Emmylou Harris. The main attraction of Fireside Bellows, though, is the heavenly blend of Lane and McNeil’s harmonies, which make this album a must have for any relaxin’ evening.
