Song Recommendation: “Desert Sky” by Ask Carol (2025)

A tune so dusty, well-worn and nostalgic in its spaghetti western meets Calexico vibes that it’s kind of hard to believe it’s as recent as it is. Starting with strummed guitar before layering in the lap steel and wistful vocals, the song then shuffles into an easy lope as it vibes along, evoking images of vast orange sunsets against a harsh darkening landscape.
