This week's PBS Feature Album is the debut self-titled album by Australian based Americana duo Minor Gold (Tracy McNeil & Dan Parsons).
Minor Gold captures the duo at their finest, weaving masterful harmonies around stripped-back, organic arrangements that draw on everything from '70s west-coast pop and Bleecker St. steeped folk to the power-ballad and Polaroid romance of the '80s. Through this superb collection of songs, Minor Gold display a spellbinding musical connection, reflecting the comfort and ease experienced as the album washes over you.
With all three of their debut singles added to national high rotation on ABC Radio's 'Double J' - a 20+ date debut North American album tour, with four shows supporting the Teskey Brothers in the US and Canada, an 'official showcase' at AmericanaFEST in September, it is fair to say Minor Gold have hit the ground running.
Tune in all this week to hear tracks from Minor Gold, and PBS Members have the chance to win a copy of the album on CD simply email your name and membership number to before midnight Sunday August 20.
