Americana literary songsmith Karen Jonas's sixth LP, The Restless is a dark alt-country exploration of vulnerability. Each song is a confession that lands somewhere between nostalg ia and doom. This mix of playful longing and earnest heartbreak crescendos into B-side opener "Rock the Boat," which leaves Jonas prepared to walk straight into a river. The Restless is a visceral experience: you can feel the "lace and velvet" and taste "the bite of bourbon" on your lover's tongue. Show more
