Wish you could be here? Well, we've got you covered!

Today, Virginia’s breakout improvisational rock titans Kendall Street Company invite listeners to embark on a journey of extraterrestrial proportions with the release of a heady new single “The Space Race” from their forthcoming double LP project The Year The Earth Stood Still. A colossal 17-track collection, the bilateral release includes an instrumental pop-ambience album Ninurta, which drops Friday, June 11th, and a narrative-driven companion Inertia coming later this fall.

The Golden Hour, set for June 11 release, demonstrates what happens when musical masters of two different generations venture fearlessly off their regular career paths, hightail it into a live-in-the-studio session with a powerhouse ensemble, and create a momentum-shifting project that puts them on fresh creative trajectories.

Colorado-based jamgrass pioneers, Leftover Salmon, announce a July 4 celebration as only this band can deliver: July 2-4, 2021 at The Surf Hotel in beautiful Buena Vista, CO.

Today, platinum-selling singer, songwriter, musician, and producer David Shaw has released his debut self-titled solo album via his own imprint Yokoko Records in partnership with C3 Records.

Jackie & The Racket’s single is the latest installment from the reliably great Dutch Records single series.  Jackie and company recently moved to Nashville, and hopefully soon the good folks of Tennessee will get a chance to see their live show, which they are known for. On their latest release Jackie & The Racket combine country, southern rock and added a dash of psychedelia. It’s under the surface, but it’s not your average country bar band….not at all.

Fantasy Records will release Tedeschi Trucks Band’s Layla Revisited (Live At LOCKN'), a one-off live recording of the seminal Derek & The Dominos album Layla and Other Assorted Love Songs, performed in its entirety with special guest Trey Anastasio.

Colorado-based band Tenth Mountain Division is pushing the sound found in the mountains in bold new directions with their high-energy electro-acoustic sound. With Producer Tim Carbone (Railroad Earth) at the helm, the band recorded their third studio album, Butte La Rose, with engineer Todd Divel (Hard Working Americans, Fruition) at Silo Sound Studio.

Midnight North, the Bay Area roots and folk act, is the latest in a series of artists to join the newly formed Americana Vibes.
