North Americans

Good morning.

Today we’re listening to North Americans, an ambient country duo based in Los Angeles. We first featured them in 2021. The band consists of pedal steel guitarist Barry Walker and acoustic guitarist Patrick McDermott. Like SUSS, Chuck Johnson, and Corntuth, North Americans combine Americana instruments with ambient templates. We’re playing the duo’s brand new album, Long Cool World, which they premiered on a Twitch livestream of the game American Truck Simulator. We’re also re-upping their 2020 record, Roped In. Both LPs came out on Third Man Records.
