Following a massive tour announcement at the top of 2018, Becca Mancaripremieres a live video of her song "Dirty Dishes" from her recently released debut album Good Woman. Refinery29 interviewed Becca about her breakthrough album and said, "Mancari's solo music is too busy luxuriating in sound to classify itself. In 'Dirty Dishes,' the refrain slingshots like a country song, but the scoring wanders like classic rock."
This week, Becca Mancari and her band have also announced a new run of tour dates with Joseph that will bring them to Boston, New York City and more. Earlier this year, Mancari announced tours with The Lone Bellow, The Weeks, and Bermuda Triangle, her band with Alabama Shakes' Brittany Howard and singer-songwriter Jesse Lafser. Find a full list of tour dates below.
Good Woman is now available for purchase and streaming via all major retailers.
Mancari is the most recent subject of The FADER's "Another Country" series, which focuses on "the folk, country and bluegrass artists that often go unsung around these parts, with an emphasis on new approaches to a classic American sound."
The song "Golden" was included on NPR Music's All Songs Considered: The Year In Music 2017 podcast by Ann Powers who said, "Becca's album, Good Woman, expresses her reality as a queer woman, as a daughter of a Puerto Rican mother, as someone whose trying to remake Americana music to have a bigger sound. But also, it takes us into a new sonic space for Americana music, and this is what I truly love about it."
Rolling Stone Country included the album on their list of 40 Best Country and Americana Albums of 2017 list and said, "It's heavy on the hazy folk-rock atmospherics of Mazzy Star or Beck's Sea Change, but occasionally allows the sunlight to stream in, as with the breezy strums and pedal steel on 'Summertime Mama.'"
UPROXX placed the album at #14 on their Best Country Albums of 2017 list and called it, "...an enjoyably slippery album, bounding at one moment and musing the next, and everything is buffed to gleam from all angles."
The Bluegrass Situation included the album in their BGS Class of 2017: Albums list and said, "Just as Good Woman expands and contracts across terrains, Mancari crosses sonic bounds with her dream-like reflections, making her one of the most significant songwriters to come out of Nashville this year."
