Gillian Welch, Where Art Thou?

Oh man, I totally had this weird dream last night about a new Gillian Welch album (no shit, I actually dream about stuff like that). Alas, no such album exists today. However, the rumblings are that there will be one in 2006. I should hope so, since it's been three years since Soul Journey. Welch and David Rawlings have trimmed back their touring schedule for the moment, so hopefully that is an indication that the final touches are being put on a new masterpiece.

I'm only human, after all. The world needs a new Gillian Welch album now!

Incidentally, Rawlings did find time to produce Old Crow Medicine Show's sophomore album, due on August 29.
