Best
Small Label and Independent CDs of 2008
2008
was another very active year in Americana music. Many established
artists released new CDs, while lots of up and coming Americana artists
tried to carve out their own niche is this increasingly crowded musical
genre. Here are a few Americana CDs which crossed our desk in 2008 which
we think deserve special recognition for fans who may have missed them.
Check the link for our list of some of the best small label and
independent CDs of this past year.

James McMurty's "We Can't Make It Here"
(JamesMcMurtry.com)
Just
before the 2004 Presidential Election, James McMurtry gave away a free
download of his state of the union anthem, "We Can't Make It
Here." The song struck a chord with the public and went on to win
Song of the Year at the Americana Music Honors and Awards. On the brink of
the 2008 election, McMurtry is giving away a previously unreleased live
version of "We Can't Make It Here" from his 2008 concert at
Southpaw in Brooklyn, NY.
