On his 2019 LP Nashlantis, Chris Gantry draws up his time in Nashville’s Seventies scene of outlaws and poets, reflecting on a “gypsy life” writing alongside Kris Kristofferson and Shel Silverstein while penning songs for everyone from Johnny Cash to Glen Campbell. Released on indie paragon Drag City and featuring contributions from Bill Callahan and Edith Frost, the album plays as an ode to a bygone era with echoes of wild-eyed inspiration, but also showcases Gantry’s still-sharp songwriting from a perch of having lived through it. —441513
