Hello Sunshine: A Tribute to Relatively Clean Rivers

The tireless blogger Raven Sings The Blues has rounded up a posse of today’s cosmic country torchbearers for Hello Sunshine, tasking them with reworking cuts from Relatively Clean Rivers’ lone LP—a half-remembered relic that teeters between ‘60s psych sprawl and the brittle twang of folk’s backroads. The record’s rarity only amps its lore, but this crew strips away the bootleg grit, bottling its golden Cali spirit for a tribute that funnels every buck to Music Cares, a lifeline for artists impacted by L.A.’s wildfire.
