Radiation City
Sometimes it’s just best to go your separate ways when a relationship isn’t working out. But sometimes, sticking it out just a bit longer can bring forth some interesting results. As is the case with Radiation City’s founding couple, Cameron Spies and Lizzy Ellison who as their
The Great American Canyon Band
The Great American Canyon band’s music has always dipped into the ethereal, a vast soundscape littered with reverb, space, and a light-as-a-feather vocal track. “Crash” is the first song off of the Baltimore husband and wife duo’s debut LP “Only You Remain”, which comes out February 19, 2016
South of France
This new track from Denver, CO’s romantic dream-pop duo South Of France is one that’s been jumping out at me lately. It has a deluge of reverb-soaked harmonies, huge bombastic chunky basslines, that’s filled out with drums, synths and some lovely “oooooooohs.” When the song hits it’
Kevin Devine
Brand new tune from Kevin Devine off of a split vinyl single he did with Cymbals Eat Guitars. Feast your ears on “Magic Magnet,” an up and down rocker, that would seemlingly fit in well with his 2013 record, Bubblegum. The limited run ep’s are available on Bad Timing
585
Thursday night was a special night out for me, my first since my child was born, and one that I’d been waiting for since the day this concert was announced. For months since a fantastic set at Newport Folk Festival, I’d pined over seeing Rateliff and the Nightsweats
Josh Ritter
Ritter preaches us stories in the style of, “messianic oracular honky-tonk.” Upbeat rock, haunting songs of murderers, promiscuous teens, and sinners abound. It’s an adventurous, folk-rock album with a shiny veneer that hides behind it darker almost apocalyptic feelings with a humorous tone. Buy, Stream, Download now. * Reminds us
Son Little
The first thing you notice on Son Little’s “Lay Down,” is a golden, buttery smooth vocals pairing with harmony that’s just as sweet. The song just seems to exist on another plane, it breezes by before you know it, a fleeting intimate moment between two lovers. The vocals,
Big Scary
Hardly a band to be nailed down by style, Australia’s Big Scary duo of Tom Iansek and Jo Syme crafted this quirky pop song, Organism, that’s got a dance vibe with little stabs from the deep end of a saxophone. In my head it’s reminiscent of a
Yuck
As soon as you press play, and the distortion kicks in, the fuzz blows into your ears, there’s a pop connection on this new track from Brit rockers, Yuck. I don’t think Yuck is being held back at all from losing their former frontman, “Hold Me Closer,” is
The Afternoon Edition
Really really loving the sounds coming from New York’s The Afternoon Edition, and their new single “Canyon Lights.” The band consists of brothers, Connor and Shane Noetzel, and friend Bryan Gallio, who are modernizing a sound honed from Americana forebears The Byrds or the Band, and rolling in more
Rayland Baxter
Although this tune debuted on NPR last week, it caught my ears again and I felt like I had to share it. It may be one of the best songs we hear this year, with it’s songwriting wit, it’s honeyed melodies, and its ability to slow down time
tyler lyle
Georgia born singer songwriter and pal of ours, Tyler Lyle has been on a mission as of late. He got his new record funded on pledge music, has been churning out content to keep us all interested and now has finally dropped the first single from his upcoming record, The
