Friday, March 1st was a pretty special night for the Music Savage gang as we got to spend an evening with two Newport Folk Festival alumni in downtown Boston. Two of our favorite Anti- Records artists shared some shows together for a few days and we were lucky enough on this chilly night to have them stop in our area to warm our hearts and souls with brilliant music for a few hours at City Winery. First up this evening was Asheville, North Carolina-based musician Christopher Paul Stelling whose fourth studio album (the second for ANTI-), Itinerant Arias, was released…

This week’s WFMO X Music Savage Show “Song of the Week” spotlight shines down on Southern California and focuses on the ridiculously catchy new song “I Wanna Keep Yr Dog” from illuminati hotties, the Los Angeles band fronted by Sarah Tudzin. It’s the first new music released since their highly acclaimed 2018 debut album Kiss Yr Frenemies. The new single is a high-octane, indie-pop jam that blasts off the instant you press play, taking you on a three minute tear through fuzzed-out guitar riffs and sixties style hooks. Tie it all together with swinging Doo-wop drums and you have yourself a song that will…

Last Monday, February 25th us winter-weary Boston folks got a much needed southern heatwave in the form of a rocking whirlwind of a trio known as Liz Cooper & The Stampede.

Cooper expertly controlled the stage with her guitar prowess, while Grant Prettyman, (bass), and Ryan Usher(drums) kept the rock n’ roll storm swirling around the jam-packed venue. Liz and the boys kicked…
