After Janiva Magness added a 2016 Grammy nomination to her 27 Blues Music Award nominations-with seven wins, Janiva might have taken at least a short rest on her laurels. Instead, one of the preeminent voices in contemporary American roots music has raised the bar for herself. Magness' fourteenth album, Love Is An Army, is a brilliantly crafted bridge between the past and present, blending the echoes of classic soul and country music with timeless themes of love and the very contemporary sound of protest. Guests include Charlie Musselwhite, Cedric Burnside, Delbert McClinton, Courtney Hartman and Rusty Young of Poco.
