Orleans is releasing their first and only Christmas album.  Subconsciously, the group—which is about to celebrate its 50th anniversary in 2022—must have been working on the holiday collection for decades.

Today, Texas singer/songwriter Thomas Csorba has released his new EP From The Jordan, produced by Beau Bedford (Texas Gentlemen). The EP has been hotly anticipated by many including Rolling Stone, KUTX, The Alternate Root, and Central Track who said “He may be a 20-something-year-old artist, but he’s really just an old soul at heart with his deep-rooted country style.”

As John & Yoko Ono Lennon’s paean for peace, “Imagine,” continues to celebrate its 50th anniversary, the iconic song has just been certified triple platinum by the RIAA for selling 3 million units in the U.S. The achievement comes on the eve of what would have been John’s 81st birthday this Saturday, October 9th.

Today, Kitchen Dwellers share their new song “Stand At Ease.” In collaboration with Backline, and in time for World Mental Health Day, October 10. No matter how silent the struggle with mental health may seem, its effects loom as loudly as an earthquake throughout the music industry. Without prejudice, even heroes sometimes succumb to its throes.

Of all the ways to deliver music to fans amidst a global pandemic, The Steel Wheels took a very clever—and quite intimate—approach. With their signature blend of Appalachian Americana stylings, The Steel Wheels’ primary songwriter Trent Wagler began crowdsourcing personal experiences of fans and forging them into songs in 2020.

Born out of the pandemic and due for release on October 15, The St Buryan Sessions will be the sixth solo album by award-winning multi-instrumentalist and singer/songwriter Sarah McQuaid, and is her most powerful and emotive offering yet.

A six-week, 21-date UK tour marks the album’s launch, and Sarah’s 2022 tour plans include the UK, Netherlands, Germany, Belgium, Denmark, Ireland and USA.

The inaugural High Ground Music & Arts Experience took place this past Saturday for a sold-out crowd just outside of Denver in the grassy amphitheater of Levitt Pavilion. Revelers enjoyed the natural beauty of the Colorado outdoors as they took part in the first-ever festival of its kind. Two stages of live chill electronic music were surrounded by the breathtaking Colorado landscape highlighted by art installations and vendors from across the Mile High City.
 

Sam Outlaw's new wave-inspired record 'Popular Mechanics' is due on November 12th, and today (10.8), he's sharing another preview of what to expect from the ambitious project with the release of "Sun Ain't Set." Written solely by Outlaw and produced by Cheyenne Medders, the song is a prime example of Outlaw's creative evolution.

Giraffe Aftermath, a reggae/rock outfit from Vancouver, BC, are set to release “Trying to Change”, a brand new single, on November 13th, 2021. The single sees the band returning from a hiatus of almost seven years. The song oozes with reflection and acceptance, admitting to our faults and shortcomings while committing to make proper adaptations moving forward.
