The wait for the latest and final installment of Colin Stetson's New History Warfare series is over. You can go to NPR now and stream the album titled To See More Light in its entirety. NPR observes: "Not one for airy pauses, Stetson infuses his solo records with an unsettling rumble, while still making room for alternately grandiose and guttural moments that awe and unnerve."
Preservation Hall Jazz Band was founded in 1961 to promote traditional New Orleans jazz in all its authenticity. Legendary players like Del McCoury Band, Steve Earle, Warren Haynes, The Edge, Charlie Musselwhite, Buddy Miller & Patty Griffin, Robert Plant, Dirty Dozen Brass Band and Tao Seeger, all rooted in the formative jazz years, were its original stars.

Punk rock...'70s country...Southern rock...jam band...and the utterly unclassifiable. Real Gone Music has once again leapfrogged all genres and eras with its June 4 line-up. Leading off are two titles from a true American original, Mason Williams, he of "Classical Gas" fame. RGM's two titles offer that famous tune along with more of Williams' ahead-of-their-time postmodern takes on pop music. Then the label vaults forward several decades and up several notches in attitude with the Surf Punks' sophomore release, Locals Only, produced with band founder Dennis Dragon's full involvement.
Hard-touring funk/rock/boogie trio The Get Right Band has released its highly anticipated debut album. Shake brings the group’s signature high-energy dance party to this amped up rock n’ roll CD. The disc features stripped down but creatively layered and produced performances of the band’s original tunes.
“The Get Right Band is a three-piece with the musical energy and power of The Police,” says legendary Lynyrd Skynyrd drummer Artimus Pyle, whose son Chris Pyle mans the drums for the group.
The setting for this all-day indie music party is two unique and gorgeous locations – a horse track during the day and the famous Stahlwerk night club after the sun sets – but most importantly, the annual Open Source Festival (OSF) attracts thousands of club music fans every year.
