For more than a decade, California trio the Devil Makes Three made do with two guitars and an upright bass, expanding their lineup as needed for the band’s raucous live shows. On Chains Are Broken, the group brings their touring drummer, Stefan Amidon, into the studio for an uptempo, energetic set of modern bluegrass and country. While the band’s bread and butter is forward-leaning stompers like “Pray for Rain” and “Need to Lose,” even when the proceedings slow down on the shuffling, twangy “All Is Quiet,” the band maintains a sense of direction, haunting though it may be.
Chains Are Broken is out now.
