Since first hearing North Carolina's Lonnie Walker on the recent Friends Records compilation, I've become quite infatuated with the quintet's manically bluesy, punk-country sound. Their 2009 debut These Times Old Times is a lean and sharp combination of ear-catching melodies and fiercely quick rhythms that will keep your feet busily tapping away. And no song succeeds more than the fidgety pluck of "Compass Comforts."Lonnie Walker - "Compass Comforts" (from These Times Old Times)
