The Delines - Colfax

Fakta Picture Edward Hopper's Nighthawks painting - the bright interior, the couple, the singleton, the dark outside. The Delines album is the soundtrack for that. Dark, late night country soul - this is Willy Vlautin's (Richmond Fontaine) finest yet. The debut album from The Delines, "Colfax" is a stunning and timeless collection of songs with the intimacy of a midnight confessional. Like a beat-up Dusty Springfield after too many long nights working a dreary after-hours bar, Colfax has the skid row heart of Tom Waits, the street-tough weariness of early Rickie Lee Jones, and the cool, laid back sound of Mazzy Star.
