The Memphis-based soul powerhouse Southern Avenue recently announced the release of their third full-length album BE THE LOVE YOU WANT along with the album’s feature track “Push Now.” Today, Southern Avenue share the official music video for the song; a light-hearted happy-go-lucky visual that showcases the band’s personality and incorporates family members from the entire Southern Avenue team.

Melbourne singer-songwriter Ernest Aines is on a roll, starting a string of releases bound for his debut album out early 2022. The first single is "So Far", Americana in style, a foot stomping tune about the pursuit of satisfaction in life. It sounds like a blend of the Eagles “Life in the Fast Lane” and Fleetwood Mac's “The Chain”, except it has a lot more banjo. The song was mixed by Grammy award winning Hugo Nicolson (engineer on Radiohead's “In Rainbows”).

After a slew of incredible singles, Anne Freeman has shared her new album, Keep It Close. The incredible singer-songwriter from Oxford, Mississippi invokes comparisons to Alvvays and Camera Obscura, but infuses their dreamy sounds with a unique twang all her own. She's a songwriter that captures millennial anxieties as deftly as she moves between power pop, blues and heartland rock

In her own words -

From the great Crack the Sky comes Joe Macre and his solo album, Bullet Train. Joe Macre is best known as the original bassist for the progressive rock band Crack the Sky, whose debut was voted album of the year in Rolling Stone Magazine in 1975 and is still considered one of the top fifty progressive rock albums of all time.

A desperado of modern culture, DEVORA, bridges outlaw country melodies with dark pop hooks drawing you into her surrealist western world.

The Westville Music Bowl in New Haven, CT was once again the hot spot in the Northeast for outstanding jam bands, as Pigeons Playing Ping Pong delivered a fiery evening of their signature psychedelic funk.

The Dagnasterpus has landed. The anticipated debut record from TREE ADAMS’ new groove powerhouse Dagnasterpus is now available on all major streaming platforms. The ten tracks feature nimble horns, grimy beats and gritty vocals. The self-titled album was released today by SIX DEGREES RECORDS.

Excitement lingered in the summer air as thousands of concert-goers lined up at Red Rocks Amphitheatre to see the legendary Austin-born and based Shakey Graves. The buzz and anticipation for a night filled with blues, folk, country, and rock and roll, was lighting up each attendee’s face. Being only his third show post-pandemic, many loyal fans and attendees were enthusiastic to welcome his music back to the stage.

While post-pandemic etiquette is on a lot of folk’s minds, John Hartford Memorial Festival goers are a little different. 2020 ticket holders were refunded if they wanted but so many gave up the cost of their tickets to donate to the organization that 2021 turned into a modest camp out complete with 12 bands for free. Miles of silence and long days of dreary COVID but the faithful keep coming back to Bean Blossom.
