For a good cause, check out Dear Companion (Sub Pop), an album written and performed by Ben Sollee and Daniel Martin Moore and produced by/featuring Jim James (of My Morning Jacket and Monsters Of Folk). A portion of the proceeds from the record, out February 16, will benefit Appalachian Voices, an organization devoted to ending mountaintop-removal coal mining. All three musicians hail from Kentucky, which shouldn’t surprise you after you listen to the bluegrass-y “Something, Somewhere, Sometime.”
