The Magnolia Sessions is a special new series which launched in early September 2020, which sees a new album released the first week of each month. All three records in the series to date – albums by Matt Heckler, Jason Dea West, and Johno Leeroy – have instantly caught the attention of the scene’s passionate fans and have reached the Billboard Bluegrass Charts. The series showcases bluegrass, dark country, and folk singer/songwriter acts in an intimate outdoor setting at the Anti-Corporate Music/Black Matter Mastering headquarters in Nashville, Tennessee. Each installment features a different artist, some with additional guest musicians, who performs a live album of sorts, recorded outdoors by a large magnolia tree, as originally seen in Lost Dog Street Band’s “September Doves” video for GemsOnVHS several years ago.
