The Tubs Announce Cotton Crown
While October isn’t quite over yet, we’re already starting to get a peek at what next year’s release schedule will look like, and the Tubs have another addition that you should keep your eyes upon. They open up the record with this new single, rushing through a slight jangle with a 90s alternative bent to it; the rush of energy allows the vocals to work their own magic, calmly sitting in the middle of the mix in crooner fashion, with some backing vocals layered in to bulk up the melodic feel. The nostalgia doesn’t feel dated here, with enough of a modern twist to make leave us thirsting for more! Cotton Crown will be out in March via Trouble in Mind.
In unforgivable blunders, I made a huge one by forgetting the release date of the new 
There was so much new music dropping last week that it was hard to keep track of it all, but I think with 22 new songs out there, we managed to do our part. Greg Mendez was a big winner, with a brand new EP we loved; I also definitely didn’t turn away from the fresh Innocence Mission, which maybe one of my favorite they’ve ever concocted. We had a premiere of a new Sunnsetter tune, and also hit up the latest from The Great Divides, so we’re kind of all over the place musically, making this playlist a journey of sorts. You can’t go wrong by pressing play below!
Fridays are always great days to just settle into your chair, couch, bed, whathaveyou, then just escape the world for a few hours. What better way than to stream some brand new music that’s dropped into the world? There’s a bunch of stuff out today, but I sort of handpicked what I’ve been enjoying and listening to the most, hoping you can latch onto a bit of that as well.
Throughout the string of stellar singles this season Club 8 have relied upon their electronic skillset to pump out hooks galore, but on their latest bop, the group are employing a more subtle piece, allowing the vocals to control the tune’s narrative. You’ll find moments in this track where they feel as if they’re nearing old school Camera Obscura methodology, operating with that high melody, with the backbeat just giving the song a bit of life and springiness. They always know how to come in at just the right time, bringing all the pieces together and leaving us with another enjoyable pop adventure.
