Ben Kweller – Mean to Me Spin dropped this yesterday, and I’m so excited to finally get to hear more music from one of my favorite artists Ben Kweller. I feel like I’ve been listening to him for multiple decades, and its pretty wild that he’s on his

Diamond Rugs – Gimme A Beer Lately I have not been able to resist all things John McCauley who seems to be fronting another band, Diamond Rugs, an indie rock supergroup(another one!) featuring Robbie Crowell (Deer Tick), Ian Saint Pé (The Black Lips), Steve Berlin (Los Lobos), Hardy Morris (Dead

Barna Howard

New Music | Barna Howard - Promise I Won't Laugh

Barna Howard – Promise I Wont Laugh Missouri’s Barna Howard  weaves gentle narrative on his “Promise I Won’t Laugh,” single debut that I’m finding to be one damn beautiful song.  You can hear his influences as he seems to wear them on his sleeve here (Young, Van Zandt

Atlas Genius

New Music | Atlas Genius - Trojans

Australia’s Atlas Genius sounds quite a bit similar to Phoenix, and their first single “Trojans,” a power pop sound with a driving bassline, shimmering guitars and and extremely catchy hook. It’s an aptly named song as it disguises itself, finds its way into your ears and deep into

Big Deal

New Music | Big Deal - Chair

Big Deal – Chair Check out this wonderfully intimate, lo-fi pop song from London’s boy-girl pop duo Big Deal.  The song feels so sugary sweet, and the lack of percussion makes it feel as though they are only singing for one another. They’ve got an album coming up, Lights

Buxton

New Music | Buxton - Boy of Nine

Buxton – Boy Of Nine Houston seems to be a hotbed for talent these days, and Buxton is one that has caught my ear with their eccentrically lush harmonies pounding rhythm & prickly banjo plucking.  Its a newgrass sound that is reminding me of quite a bit like Joe Strummer’s

Nada Surf – Waiting For Something Dropping very soon, Nada Surf is releasing a second single off their upcoming album, The Stars Are Indifferent To Astronomy is out 1/24 on Barsuk.  The single in question is “Waiting For Something,” which feels quite like vintage Nada Surf, a sterling, sparkling, powerpop

Peasant

Damien DeRose, the talented singer and songwriter behind Peasant, is about to release his third album, Bound for Glory, on 4/17.  The first taste we’re getting is new track “The Flask,” which feels a bit Elliott Smith with its whispy vocals that seem to float along with the

Kingsley Flood – Black Boots Kingsley Flood – I Don’t Wanna Go Home Our friends Kingsley Flood released their Colder Still EP yesterday, one that has been on regular replay here in my library and for good reason.  Colder Still is a 6 song EP that ramps up the energy and

Justin Townes Earle

New Music | Justin Townes Earle - Nothing's Gonna Change...

Justin Townes Earle – Nothing’s Gonna Change The Way You Feel About Me Now What can I say about this guy that hasn’t already been said ad nauseum.  Happily, I received word that he’d be releasing another album, and over the weekend, I think everyone had the opportunity
