Watershed by Kristina Stykos

This latest production, produced at Stykos’ solar and wind powered Pepperbox studio, paints landscapes inspired by her time out west - and tells stories of the heart. Featuring her strong guitar playing and raspy alto, her punchy new sound brings with it a supporting cast of all-stars from the East Coast roots scene, including rocker Bow Thayer and Mark Spencer of Son Volt: “A road-weary work filled with laments on life, love and longing … rooted in dusty, straightforward country-rock … [Stykos] long ago earned her reputation as one of the state’s finest lyricists. But never has she sounded so focused or refined, combining the straightforward prose of a blue-collar bard with deeply poetic sensitivity. ” Dan Bolles, Seven Days.
