Brooklyn-based Americana singer-songwriter Moon Shine (aka Angie Glasscock) manages to tread a fine line on her debut LP, The Land in Between (released 11/11/22), an album that sounds fresh and effusive while reflecting a decided reverence for tradition. It’s a rich and varied combination of soulful ballads, upbeat Americana and unfettered exuberance, a rare dynamic for an artist who’s taking her first bow.

The first few songs Angie wrote leaned country, so it seemed natural that the band should be called “Moon Shine.” Though, there’s more to it than just that: “The Moon is a female symbol,” says Angie. “The name refers to women shining.”

The Land In Between was produced and mixed by Teddy Kumpel, guitarist for Joe Jackson, at Atomic Sound in Brooklyn, and together they assembled an impressive array of veteran A-list session players, including bassist Cat Popper, drummer Steve Williams, keyboard player Todd Caldwell, fiddler Charlie Burnham; with Mark Spencer on pedal steel, Michael Blake on tenor saxophone, Bruce Harris on trumpet and the late Don Heffington, playing drums on “I Tried to Keep on Loving You.”
