Grant-Lee Phillips - Remember This

Grant-Lee Phillips lost in the music as he performs his recent single "Remember This".

The single is taken from the forthcoming album "All That You Can Dream", which is due out on 20th May 2022. Like many artists, Phillips turned to song-writing when his touring schedule was paused indefinitely during the pandemic.

He explains: “I found respite in the process when I could do little else. It became a sort of meditation on this time in my life and the events that we’ve collectively experienced. We’ve experienced some staggering events over the past several years or so. When people speak of those things, it’s not enough to simply highlight or underline the headlines of the day. The aim is to tap into the feelings that we share that are trapped beneath our skin—and figure out how we expel those feelings by talking about them. I found that the circumstances of being off the road and left to reflect on what this time feels like, produced a different kind of song. In some ways, that freed me up to write and record the kind of song that was personal and executed as though it were for an audience of myself alone. That’s freeing.”

In a nod to this lyrical elegance, "All That You Can Dream's" music is ornate but spare. Phillips wrote and arranged the album's songs on guitar or piano, adding a basic rhythmic and vocal framework. To flesh out the music's contours, he then enlisted a pair of trusted previous collaborators, the Los Angeles-based bassist Jennifer Condos and drummer Jay Bellerose. "They were going stir-crazy themselves and welcomed the idea of a long-distance recording project," Phillips says. Bellerose set up drums in his living room, Condos served as engineer, and the duo laid down rhythm tracks to songs Phillips had sent over, as if the three musicians were all in the same room.

It’s a sensitive, introspective collection of songs that reflect the uncertainties and anxieties of the world we’re currently living in. Look out for the album and, in the meantime, enjoy this and try to catch him live, see all the dates below.

Today's tune "Remember This", taken from the upcoming album "All That You Can Dream".

Amythyst Kiah - Fancy Drones (Fracture Me)

The Tennessee singer-songwriter Amythyst Kiah did share a Live Performance Video of the tune “Fancy Drones (Fracture Me)” released September 30, 2021 by Rounder Records.

“Fancy Drones (Fracture Me)", is one of the standout tracks from her acclaimed Rounder Records debut "Wary + Strange".

“This song started as a poem,” says Amythyst. “First World modern society allows us so much access to technology, material possessions, medication for our ailments, supplements to make up for a poor diet. All of this convenience because we are convinced that being workaholics makes us who we are. We become cogs in a large machine. It’s a tale as old as time and we are all susceptible to it. This is just another blues song that laments that tale in a fresh way.”

"Wary + Strange" was released in June via Rounder Records, earning Amythyst glowing features and reviews with The New York Times, NPR Morning Edition, Pitchfork, and Rolling Stone, plus performances on Jimmy Kimmel Live! and CBS This Morning: Saturday.

Enjoy!

Natural Child - Out In The Country

Hailing from Nashville, Tennessee, NATURAL CHILD are a trio whose good and greasy style is informed by Southern rock, vintage country-rock, laid-back Laurel Canyon sounds, '70s-style boogie, a dash of hard rock, and most likely a careful balance of liquor and bong hits (the bookmark icon for the band's official blog is a tiny pot leaf, and their lyrics often confirm their fondness for recreational marijuana).

NATURAL CHILD were formed in 2009 by bassist Wez Traylor and drummer Zack Martin, who had just left another Nashville-based band, the TURBO FRUITS. Singer and guitarist Seth Murray previously played in THE HORRIBLY WRONG while living in Bloomington, Indiana.

NATURAL CHILD released their first 7" within months of their first practice, and in their first two years, they managed to play over 200 shows per annum. In 2010, NATURAL CHILD brought out a cassette-only EP, "Bodyswitchers". In 2012, they signed on with the respected California indie Burger Records, releasing two records that same year, "For The Love Of The Game" and "Hard In Heaven". Followed by 2014 "Dancin' With Wolves", 2016 "Okey Dokey" and the self titled "Natural Child" in 2020.

Today's tune "Out In The Country" taken from the album "Dancin' With Wolves", the Video is made for Rollo & Grady Sessions on May 14, 2013. Directed by Conrad Heinz & Josh Ball of Ender Productions. Audio Capture, Mix & Master - Jarrett Bostich.

"Pressure" is 13 songs of the bands finest work, created in difficult times as a reflection of their emotions and bottling the moment. Featuring guest appearances from Rebecca Lovell of LARKIN POE and BLACKBERRY SMOKES Charlie Starr.

Today's tune "Holdin’ My Breath" ft. Charlie Starr from BLACKBERRY SMOKE. Taken from the new album "Pressure", released 23 October 2020

Justin Townes Earle - Saint Of Lost Causes


Justin Townes Earle (born January 4, 1982) is an American singer-songwriter and musician. He is a son of alternative country artist Steve Earle and is named after Townes Van Zandt.

Earle grew up in South Nashville, Tennessee, with his mother, Carol Ann Hunter Earle. His father, Steve Earle, gave him his middle name in honor of his own mentor, singer and songwriter Townes van Zandt. At the age of two he was left by his father with his mother, but returned to live with his father after Steve got clean in 1994. He dropped out of school, occasionally touring with and working for his father, eventually moving to eastern Tennessee with other songwriters. Like his father, Earle battled addiction beginning in his early teens.


Today's tune is the title tune of the album "The Saint of Lost Causes", released by New West Records on May 24, 2019. The Video is filmed live at The Current Day Party at Barracuda in Austin, Texas, during the 2019 SXSW music festival.

Whitechapel - When A Demon Defiles A Witch


Since their 2007 debut, "The Somatic Defilement", The Knoxville metal titans WHITECHAPELs output has been mired in darkness, but they have never inhabited blacker territory than where we find them on 7th full-length, "The Valley".

The band is named after the WHITECHAPEL district in East London, England, referencing the series of murders committed by Jack the Ripper.

On November 2, 2018 the band announced their seventh studio album "The Valley" will be released on March 29th, 2019 via Metal Blade Records and the first song "Brimstone" was released. It has also been reported Navene Koperweis from Entheos has tracked drums for the upcoming album. The song solidifies a change in their once-deathcore sound to a more melodic metal sound.

On February 20, 2019 the band released a music video for the song "When a Demon Defiles a Witch", see it below.




"The Valley" of the title relates to the part of Hardin Valley, west of Knoxville, Tennessee, where Bozeman grew up. To track this powerful collection, the band once again teamed up with producer Mark Lewis (CANNIBAL CORPSE, THE BLACK DAHLIA MURDER) whose commitment to creating the best possible record reflects that of the musicians involved and mixed by David Castillo, mastered by Ted Jensen

Today's tune "When a Demon Defiles a Witch" taken from "The Valley." Video is Directed by Mathis Arnell, enjoy!

The Dead Deads - Nothing Will Be Fine


The Nashville, Tennessee, alternative rockers THE DEAD DEADS releases an EP 2017, where today's tune was included, a video was made for "Nothing Will Be Fine". A tune were they have created a sound and a culture that is part heritage, part science fiction, and all ROCK. Heads bang as metal and grunge riffs are beaten into submission by relentless, often bombastic rhythms. Sixties harmonies, brutal growls and finely crafted wordplay force unexpected stops and odd time signatures into undeniable hooks creating a new brand of drum-driven rock–brutal, silly and sublime.

THE DEAD DEADS are very influenced by the sound of bands from 90’s, like THE PIXIES and SONIC YOUTH, to a more modern metal acts like MASTODON and BARONESS and the punkish and grunge roots of NOFX, WEEZER, NIRVANA. Very interesting mix of music.

They have been very busy touring over the years. And in 2017 got off to a crazy start with another trip on ShipRocked, direct support for NONPOINT and a run with ALTER BRIDGE and at the same time they released the latest EP, produced by Matt Mahaffey. They are currently writing for the third studio record, and will finish the year out with SEETHERs "Poison the Parish" tour after two shows with SKID ROW.

Today's tune is the politically charged song "Nothing Will Be Fine" is taken from THE DEAD DEADS summer '17 EP. Video Credits: Produced by The Dead Deads and Erick Anderson Director of Photography: Erick Anderson Video Editor: Leticia Wolf Starring: THE DEAD DEADS, Keiffer Infantino and Marcus Mesto Recorded at West Light Studios in Franklin, TN

Place of Skulls - The Black is Never Far


Monday, time to introduce "Record Of The Week"

Busy times with a lot of work makes music listening suffer a bit, the pile of new records are growing again. So this week I pick an album that have a few years of playing time, an album that was in the pile of recommendations and now ended up as a "Record Of The Week"

"The Black is Never Far" is the third full-length album by PLACE OF SKULLS. The band is from Knoxville, Tennessee and was formed in 2000 by PENTAGRAM, ex-DEATH ROW, ex-CATHEDRAL, guitarist Victor Griffin. Griffin left PENTAGRAM in 1996 and during this time before starting the band, became a Christian. The name is a biblical reference to Golgotha. The band put out their debut album "Nailed", on Southern Lord Records in 2002. Many of these songs deal with Griffin's new found faith in Christianity. Four songs from the "Nailed" session were explicitly Christian and for this reason did not appear on the album. These were released as the "Love Through Blood" EP in 2005. Scott "Wino" Weinrich joined the band for their second album, "With Vision". This album was released by Southern Lord Records in 2003. Shortly after, Wino left the band to concentrate on THE HIDDEN HAND. In 2006 the band signed to Germany's Exile on Mainstream Records and released the album, "The Black Is Never Far". In 2010, the band released their fourth album, "As a Dog Returns".  2014 Griffin rejoined PENTAGRAM. June 17, 2016 the band released the album "In-Graved".


"The Black is Never Far" is a soulful rock album with music from a dark place, light doomish, light SABBATH riffing by guitar slinger and vocalist Victor Griffin. His vocals delivers husky, thick melodies that are filled with worldly destruction and as the album title indicates, the road to Hell is never more than a few missteps away. The album kicks of with real stoner chug "Prisoner's Creed", thick and heavy riffing. "Relentless" is another heavy rocker. "Sense of Divinity" is a heavy piece where SABBATH vein blows true the tune, great song work. "Darkest Hour" starts soft and beautifully before it erupts with SABBATH riffing, but keeps the calm , truly nice guitar work on this tune. "Interlude #1, #2, #3" are more like guitar picking intros. The half pace-acoustic tunes like the title track and the closer "Changed Heart" are very beautiful, melancholy with a sense of compassion. "Lookin' For a Reason" is a blusey one, with a guitar playing that is incredibly sensitive, moving, almost heartbreaking, brings a new meaning to the term of manly sorrow and sadness.

Sum: If you are up 2 some melancholy blues-doom, then "The Black is Never Far" is absolutely you're thing!

Today's tune "The Black Is Never Far" with Victor Griffin at Little Devil Tilburg 19-10-16

A Thousand Horses - Smoke


"Smoke" is a song by American country music group A THOUSAND HORSES. It is their debut release and the first from their album "Southernality".


The band formed in 2010 in Nashville, Tennessee. The band is composed of Michael Hobby (lead vocals), Bill Satcher (lead guitar), Zach Brown (guitar and vocals), and Graham Deloach (bass and vocals). Their first EP, A Thousand Horses, was released under Interscope Records in 2010. In 2014, the band signed with Republic Nashville of Big Machine Label Group and released its first single "Smoke", which set a record for the highest debut by a new act when it opened at number 28 on the Country Aircheck radio chart.

The song is a ballad in which the narrator compares his lover to the substance dependence of tobacco, referring to her as a "habit that I can't let go"

Giving it a "B+", Jim Casey of Country Weekly praised the song's Southern rock and blues influences, adding that "The forlorn lyrics are despairing, but frontman Michael Hobby's gritty vocals…drive the song into an endorphin-releasing euphoria."


Today's tune "Smoke" taken from the latest album "Southernality". The music video was directed by Peter Zavadil. In the video, the band performs the song live about an erotic dancer they are watching on stage. Joseph Hudak of Rolling Stone compared the video to that of "Girls, Girls, Girls" by MÖTLEY CRUE.
