In It to Win It - 2022 Year-End Favorite Lists!

  • Top 89 of 2022: Mike Pengra's top albums: Radio Heartland D.J. Mike Pengra lists In It to Win It among his favorite albums and local albums of the year!
  •  The Current's United States of Americana 2022 In Review: D.J. Bill DeVille says "On this USofA I played some of my favorites and some of the songs you heard a bunch in 2022. Artists like Erin Rae, Angel Olsen, Ian Noe, Nikki Lane, Becky Kapell and Paul Cauthen." Listen HERE!
  • Southern Minn Scene Sarah Selects: Best local albums of 2022: In It To Win It - Becky Kapell "Easy going Americana, from the same bookshelf as Lucinda Williams, Tift Merrit and Iris Dement, Becky Kapell has cemented herself as one of the names to know in the genre. Finding music later in life, Becky is not trying to impress anyone. Her simplistic lyrics and uncomplicated playing capture a laid back, no-nonsense-tells-it like-it-is spirit. For In It To Win It, she recorded the songs live with her veteran band improvising their parts as they went. The result is a sound that embodies the moment."
  • Best of 2022, Part 2 of 2: Radio Heartland D.J. Mike Pengra picks Idle Down as one of his favorite songs of the year on part 2 of his two-part "best of" episode pair, based on Mike’s favorites from 2022 including music from Mary Gauthier, Jake Blount, Kelley Smith, Lyle Lovett and more. Listen HERE!
  •   Idle Down nominated for the Top 89 Songs of 2022 on The Current

Minneapolis Star Tribune names "In It to Win It" one of the 10 best Minnesota albums of the year!

""Idle down / Don't go too fast" are fitting lyrics to hear from this steady-grooving Americana strummer, who didn't step out in the Twin Cities scene as a singer/songwriter until after she raised her kids. With a tight unit of twang vets behind her, including guitar master Paul Bergen, Kapell shows the cool confidence of middle age and a Lucinda Williams-style tender toughness in "Idle Down" and this seven-track mini-album's sizzling title track." -Chris Riemenschneider, Minneapolis Star Tribune
