Freight Train Love awarded Vintage Folk Album of the Year (2015) by the Rural Roots Music Commission

Freight Train Love

Hilary Scott writes, “We were honored again this year by the Rural Roots Music Commission.  We were awarded the “Vintage Folk Album of the Year” for Freight Train Love.  We feel particularly touched by the term vintage as we do hope the album stands the test of time, and the album does, to me, have a more traditional sound than my previous work.  Thanks to all who were involved in the project, and thank you RRMC, and Bob Everhart of the National Traditional Country Music Association, for the honor!”

“Didn’t Make It Alive” makes semifinals in UK Songwriting Contest

We just learned that Hilary Scott and Michael ONeill’s song, “Didn’t Make It Alive” (track 10 on the Freight Train Love album) has been selected as a semi-finalist in the Country division.

All Semi Finalist are considered for finalist positions. Winners and Finalists will be announced in December. Songs selected as Semi Finalists are in the top 20 per cent (one in five) of all entries as rated by the judges. In other words, most songs, four out of five songs entered in the contest this year, did NOT make it through to this stage. If a song is chosen as a Semi Finalist it will continue to the higher judging stages and has the chance to reach the Finals and may even be a Winner.

We’ll keep you posted!!

“Freight Train Love” reviewed by Jay Minkin in “No Depression”

Jay Minkin, in his review of Freight Train Love, says:

“I didn’t know about this St. Louis-based singer-songwriter who has recorded ten other albums over the last dozen years, until a copy of her album from KG Music Press showed up in my mailbox. It sat until last week on a cold, rainy afternoon I decided to pop the disc into my car’s CD changer for the commute home and it was as if the clouds parted for a ray of sunshine.”
