Rolling Stone has published its list of the 50 Best Albums of 2015, and among them are two Nonesuch Records releases: The Arcs' debut album, Yours, Dreamily, which the magazine calls "a riveting extension of the Black Keys' progressive-blues aesthetic," and Tomorrow Is My Turn, the solo debut album from Rhiannon Giddens, whom Rolling Stone calls "a rare voice bound for glory."
Rolling Stone has published its list of the 50 Best Albums of 2015, and among them are two Nonesuch Records releases: The Arcs' debut album, Yours, Dreamily, and Rhiannon Giddens's solo debut album, Tomorrow Is My Turn.
The Arcs' debut album, Yours, Dreamily, features 13 tracks written and recorded collaboratively by the band—Dan Auerbach of the Black Keys, Leon Michels, Richard Swift, Homer Steinweiss, and Nick Movshon—with the musicians playing a large array of roles both vocally and instrumentally; also on the album are Kenny Vaughan and Mariachi Flor de Toloache. Rolling Stone calls the album "a riveting extension of the Keys' progressive-blues aesthetic."
Rhiannon Giddens, a founding member of the Carolina Chocolate Drops, released her solo debut album, Tomorrow Is My Turn, in February. "Giddens' singular union of country-church fire, concentrated hurt and operatic poise is especially compelling in the earthy restraint of T Bone Burnett's production," says Rolling Stone, calling her "a rare voice bound for glory." As previously noted, the album has also made Mojo's list of the Top 10 Folk Albums and Top 10 Americana Albums of the year.
