Best Americana Album in Nashville 2026: Allison Russell, ‘In the Hour of Chaos’
In the Hour of Chaos, Allison Russell’s third solo album, is a determinedly hopeful, colorful beam of light in a world that sorely needs it. For this 11-track record, Russell gathered an impressive lineup of guests — including Norah Jones, Joy Oladokun, Brittney Spencer and Kashus Culpepper — who melt into her beautiful, empowering ensemble. The songsmith weaves brilliant threads of joy through the stories, and the rich and powerful harmonies wrap around you and lift you up. In the Hour of Chaos is an ode to community and song as a powerful force against oppression.
