Shovels & Rope
There’s a whole lot of anticipation building for the new album, Little Seeds, and it goes without saying that we are pretty big fans of Shovels & Rope, so it’s my pleasure to be able to share with you the lovely video for the new single, “St. Anne’

Saturday at the Folk Fest… Remember our Friday Folk post where the discussion of cloning oneself so that you could catch all the acts came to life. Well Saturday’s lineup had me tossing and turning trying to figure out how to pull off something of this magnitude for perfect
Newport Folk Festival
The last look back on Newport Folk is always the hardest to write because that is when the reality of it being over truly sinks in. Everyone involved lives off the festival vibes for weeks, sharing stories, posting photos, and writing reviews to keep the internet flush with memories of

Friday at the Folk Fest… Really very hard to believe that we are already a week removed from the shear greatness that was NFF ’16 and all we have now are our memories to keep us going through the normal routine of our lives. Nothing wrong with that of course.
Regina Spektor
It’s been four long years since we have had new music from New York singer-songwriter Regina Spektor and the wait is finally over. Spektor’s upcoming album, Remember Us To Life, will be released September 30th via Sire/Warner Bros. Records and we have the lead off single, “Bleeding

It’s our favorite time of the year here at Music Savage. We anticipate Newport Folk Festival for three hundred and sixty two days… and here we are. Ready to run back n’ forth between stages in hopes of catching all of the bands on the list we have so
False Heads
UK trio False Heads have released another rock ass-kicking in the form of a new single titled, “Slew,” that pretty much shores up their status as the keepers of the British punk rock flame. You think that’s hyperbole? Go ahead and press play on that track up there to
Bo Rocha
I am a sucker for a song with heavy beats perfectly mixed together with an amazing voice. With that secret shared I will admit that when I pressed play on the latest single, “Enough For You,” from London-based musician/producer Bo Rocha, I simply had to post the track here
Pixies
Boston’s rock n’ roll scene changed a great deal back in 1986 when our beloved Pixies formed and began to build an alt-rock legacy with the release of their debut album, Surfer Rosa, two years later. We all know the tumultuous story behind the band’s history so there’
Courtney Barnett
Courtney Barnett likes to have fun in her videos and I believe fun videos make the world a better place, so here’s the Aussie rockers new one for her excellent song, “Elevator Operator,” from her smashing debut album Sometimes I Sit and Think, And Sometimes I Just Sit. It’
Maggie Rogers
Admittedly we are a bit behind the proverbial eight-ball here on this amazing song from recent NYU graduate Maggie Rogers but as the saying goes better late than never. “Alaska” has been described as a folk/dance hybrid, and it most certainly has that going on in abundance, and yet
Basement Revolver
Hamilton, Ontario trio Basement Revolver have released a great new single called “Words” off of their upcoming self-titled EP, out July 15th via Fear of Missing Out Records. The second track comes a few months after the band dropped their debut song, “Johnny,” which received quite a bit of well
