Coyote Kolb
“Albedo” is a new track from Boston’s Coyote Kolb off their upcoming 2nd album United State, our 1/28. Albedo follows the dusty boots, dirty blues rock style that made me enjoy their previous effort Massachusett so much. We in town can look forward to the cd release party

Yukon Blonde
Yukon Blonde – Choices I really dig what Yukon Blonde is doing with their music. Its a west coast vibe, but with a cool Canadian breeze blowing over it. The cool harmonies, and chilled out solo on this track really tie well together. The Vancouver-based Yukon Blonde had debuted this track
Black Joe Lewis

Generationals
We all love lists, and we all love sarcasm. Though, I think its important to reflect upon the last year of music, I’m going to do so through the use of a list. It was a fantastic year full of awesome albums, and I’m going to count down
