The Best Southern Albums of 2019

Mandolin Orange | Tides of a Teardrop
On their third album, the Chapel Hill, North Carolina, duo of Andrew Marlin and Emily Frantz continues to lean into fuller instrumentation—without abandoning their bluegrass roots. “Golden Embers,” the album’s opener, is a study in restraint, ambling along with intimate harmonies before giving way to a lush, full-band sound. Fans of Mandolin Orange’s 2016 breakout single “Wildfire” will be drawn to new song “The Wolves,” a narrative about overcoming obstacles to find joy, set to glittering strings.
Essential Tracks: “Golden Embers,” “The Wolves”
