Back in 1995, when this album was released, the alternative country revolution was beginning to take hold, with bands like Uncle Tupelo and the Jayhawks stirring things up. Blue Mountain, a trio from Oxford, Mississippi was right on their tail with Dog Days, their brilliant debut. It's inspired by milestone albums like Harvest and Sweethearts of the Rodeo, with just enough rock edge to offset its beautiful country strumming, and enough romantic chemistry between husband and wife team Laurie Stirratt and Cary Hudson to feel heartwarming and cozy.
