Review

Alright, let's dive into Molly Tuttle's fourth studio marvel, "City of Gold." Dropping in 2023, this album is an electrifying fusion of bluegrass and Americana. With her band Golden Highway in tow, Tuttle unveils 13 tracks that drag you through the dusty hills of California and the peaks of Yosemite like it's a scenic road trip blasted through your ears. Don't even get me started on the pristine production handled by Tuttle and dobro genius Jerry Douglas—every instrument sparkles under their polish and nuance.

The album's personal yet evocative songwriting draws from Tuttle's childhood memories and life on the road, making it a heartfelt narrative journey. Guest appearances by icons like Dave Matthews and Old Crow Medicine Show's Ketch Secor and Mason Via add even more star power. Tracks like "El Dorado" and "Next Rodeo" flaunt Tuttle's storytelling chops, while "San Joaquin" and "Yosemite" demonstrate her knack for crafting songs that feel both intensely personal and universally touching. Critically adored with a Metacritic score of 77 and a Grammy win for Best Bluegrass Album at the 66th Annual Grammy Awards, "City of Gold" isn't just an album; it's a musical tour de force that secures Tuttle's spot as a bluegrass heavyweight. - Chase
