Nicki Bluhm's creative confdence and authentic vocals are front and center on 'Avondale Drive', her sophomore solo album and the follow up to her critically-acclaimed 2018 release 'To Rise You Gotta Fall'

The native San Franciscan who now calls Tennessee home possesses a gorgeously emotive voice and her clear-eyed perspective on life informs the 10 tracks on the new release.

Produced by Jesse Noah Wilson and recorded in East Nashville, the new album features a cast of musical luminaries including Oliver Wood, James Pennebaker, Jay Bellerose, Jen Condos, Erik Slick, Erin Rae, Karl Denson and AJ Croce. The album combines nostalgic country-rock with distinctly modern lyricism–an apt contrast for the process of studying one's past in order to make a better future. Stand out tracks include a duet with Oliver Wood on "Friends", the folksy "Juniper Woodsmoke, the refective "Learn to Love Myself and "Wheels Rolling," a windows-down, hit-the-gas banger that ends the album.

LP Blue Vinyl w/DL card Tracks: Learn To Love Myself / Love To Spare / Feel / Sweet Surrender / Juniper Woodsmoke / Friends (How To Do It) / Mother's Daughter / Fool's Gold / Leaving Me (Is The Loving Thing To Do) / Wheels Rolling
