The band also recently gave an NPR Tiny Desk Concert of songs from Magic Ship. The band performed Musgraves’s song "Slow Burn” for an Aquarium Drunkard Lagniappe Session, which you can hear here.Įarlier this week, the trio released its take on two John Denver tunes: “Take Me Home, Country Roads” and “Around and Around.” Mountain Man Sings John Denver is available to download and stream now, and the vinyl 7”, due June 7, is available to pre-order here.
