Refugia Blues

Nick Shoulders' fifth album blends acoustic Southern roots with progressive songwriting. Recorded solo at the microphone, Refugia Blues explores climate, anthropology, and personal reflection through a distinctive voice rooted in country, Appalachian yodel, and field holler traditions. The album balances big ideas with intimate moments—weaving love songs, humor, and heavy insights into accessible yet lingering tracks. Raw and resolute, it's American country music reimagined.
