That Sea, the Gambler has introduced a lot of people to Gregory Alan Isakov, and The Stable Song is easily one of his most beloved recordings, whether in its original rustic setting or the later orchestral version. Here are three tracks that branch naturally from its reflective, open-road folk sound. Does the gentle, rolling fingerpicking draw you in most, or are you hoping for more of the expansive, cinematic string arrangements?
TrackRoot melody
Wayside/Back in Time
Gillian Welch
Recorded for her 2003 album Soul Journey, this track shares an easy-paced acoustic roll and bittersweet lyrical lilt that feels cut from the very same cloth.
TrackIntimate chamber-folk
Beggar in the Morning
The Barr Brothers
From their 2011 self-titled debut, this piece pairs delicate acoustic picking with subtle percussion and harp textures, matching the hushed, handcrafted warmth of Isakov's work.
TrackWeathered narrative folk
Northbound 35
Jeffrey Foucault
Featured on his 2004 album Stripping Cane, it combines sparse acoustic rhythm and weeping pedal steel to capture an evocative, solitary highway atmosphere.
