(From all Music.com-Mark Deming) One of the most celebrated figures to rise from the Americana community in the 2010s and 2020s, Amanda Shires first earned a reputation as a world-class fiddler before was recognized as a gifted, imaginative 
vocalist and songwriter. Shires has contributed to projects with artists as diverse as Beck, John Prine, Blackberry Smoke, and Todd Snider, and she's a key member of Jason Isbell's band the 400 Unit as well as the all-female Americana supergroup the Highwomen. She's also pursued a successful solo career that's allowed her to explore her own diverse musical and lyrical ideas, from the alt country-influenced Carrying Lightning (2011) to the genre-spanning rock and pop showcase To the Sunset (2018). While most of her work has been built on a foundation of American roots music, Shires's very adaptable talent can also make room for vintage soul sounds, '60s-influenced pop, moody indie rock, and noisy goth-influenced epics on her ambitious 2022 LP Take It Like a Man.

Intocable established themselves as one of the most steadily popular and commercially successful regional Mexican acts of their day with recordings such as 1999's number one Contigo. Followed by a pair of chart-topping albums in 2003 -- Crossroads: Cruce de Caminos, and La Historia, established a 
pattern for the group. In all, nine of their albums peaked at either one or two on the Latin Albums chart and ten hit number one at Mexican Regional Albums. Between 1999's Contigo and 2016's Highway, they also placed ten albums in the Top 200. Intocable took pride in their devoted following, which allowed them to sell out massive arenas filled with tens of thousands of fans. They were among the few regional Mexican artists -- along with the aforementioned Tigres del Norte and Conjunto Primavera, as well as superstars like Marco Antonio Solís and Ana Bárbara -- who rivaled the popularity and cultural impact of Latin pop stars such as Paulina Rubio, Juanes, and Thalía. Granted, those pop stars enjoyed international adoration, whereas a regional Mexican act like Intocable, for reasons of cultural specificity, was geographically limited to Mexico and the United States. But within Mexican and Mexican-American strongholds, Intocable were as revered as any pop stars, and likely more respected. The band were critically acclaimed as well, with a long list of awards to its credit. For instance, they were regularly nominated for Premio Lo Nuestro and Latin Grammy awards, and they often won -- in 2005 they took home Latin Grammys for both Best Norteño Album (Diez) and Best Regional Mexican Song ("Aire"); 2013's En Peligro de Extincion spent 30 weeks in the Top Ten, and Highway, with its upbeat fusion of norteño and roots rock, won them an entirely new audience in 2016.
