Radhika Vekaria’s Warriors of Light reminds me that iconoclasts are still on the scene. Mavericks who follow their occasionally wayward Muse wherever she may lead. This one-of-a-kind singer/songwriter and performer’s latest collection disdains facile entertainment. Instead, I […]
You can rightly refer to Lord of the Strings as an outfit of bluegrass all-stars. The combination of respected talents Dennis Parker, Tony Wray, newcomer Matt Leadbetter, and Tim Crouch isn’t an uneasy melding of […]
The High Plains Drifters have released their latest single, titled Summer Girl (Redux). The entire production value, along with the accompanying music video, reeks of delicious trash art meets underground experimental. The High Plains Drifters […]
Tidalwave Road’s The Bonfire Sessions is the debut of a quartet that’s certain to become one of the most formidable units in the bluegrass genre. The band first formed in 2012 and has spent considerable time refining […]

Pangaea’s version of “Come Together” filters The Beatles working in hard-edged rock mode through a jazz fusion consciousness. It comes out great and, most importantly, distinct. You won’t hear a whiff of this Georgia septet […]
Chris Chitsey is working hard to save true country music from the forces of big city commerciality that would see it butchered and sold off to the pop music market, and in his new single “Every […]
With over two millennia worth of songwriters to stack up against, to say it isn’t easy to make a fun, original Gospel album might just be the understatement of the year. Nevertheless, Mark D. Conklin […]
Ambitiousness doesn’t always equate to magic in or out of the studio, but Vicious Kitty does a pretty awesome job reminding us all of the power of hard work in their heavy-handed new album Vicious Kitty. A […]
Streaking in Tongues’ Einstein’s Napkin is unlike any instrumental collection you’ll hear in 2024. Michigan’s Ronnie and Elliott Ferguson are a father and son duo, respectively, who have crafted fifteen deceptively ambitious tunes that only rarely break […]
Rhythm can make or break a crossover track like Old Man Jack’s “Stone Cold.” In a situation where artists decide to tackle a composition as multifaceted as this particular release from the acclaimed underground blues-rock […]
