On today’s episode of Ambient Country, Bob Holmes of SUSS is joined by co-host Stelth Ulvang of The Lumineers and Heavy Gus. They discuss his recent contributions to the Across the Horizon music series, as well as music from his playlist including Marisa Anderson & Jim White, Dirty Three, Frail Talk, Nick Jaina, Slyne and the Family Stoned, Little Mazarn, Olivia Kaplan & Hand Habits, Mojave 3, and many more.
We’re listening to two records that Bob and Stelth discuss on the podcast. Dirty Three, an Australian band that plays a kind of jambient style, has been putting out records since the early ‘90s. We’re playing their latest LP, Love Changes Everything, which came out in June 2024. Scenic is another group that formed in the ‘90s, led by guitarist Bruce Licher who also started the punk band Savage Republic. Scenic’s 1995 LP, Incident at Cima, is a post-rock record whose minor-key, reverbed style evokes the ruggedness and gravitas of the open desert.

Have a great Wednesday.
Another great show. Thank you Bob!
I had forgotten about this band; interesting stuff, from noisy fuzz to delicate bowed tendrils. The first track is heavy and hard to ignore, while later tracks shift from haunting to euphoric to anxious and back again.
Is there anywhere that lists all the tracks in the episode? The show notes only mention two albums. I’m interested in some of the other bands featured as well.
I’ll be publishing a full playlist of all tracks soon.👍
Awesome! Thank you.
