It takes a certain type of song to slot into the Sunday morning doze. Noise and general eclecticism, which at other times is our stock in trade, taks a backseat and instead the thrills become drowzy and comforting on ears looking for solace. And LA’s Johnny Ruby has a formula that fills the gap seamlessly, for ‘Graceland Smile’ is a honky-tonk without the baggage. His voice, deep yet warm sets the tone and the alt country chords wrap it up like a morning lullaby. The Sister Ruby Band have but one EP to their name but debut LP ‘In Cold Blood’ is just around the corner. Praise the dawnin’ of a new talent. KD
