Check Out Quitter From Brother Bird
Towards the end of last year, Caroline Glaser, straight out of Nashville, released a stunning single under her recording name Brother Bird titled “Something Better,” which made it onto my list of top songs of the year. This year will bring the release of new album Another Year, and a lengthy tour, including some dates next week for SXSW here in Austin. Prior to the new album, Glaser just shared one last preview of her new material with this slow burning new single “quitter.” Though it is slow in build, it features an immaculate progression and yet another expertly written song in the Brother Bird cannon.
You can pre-order the new Brother Bird album, Another Year, right now via Easy Does It Records. It’s out on Friday.
It may not have been a week covered in big names, but there were tons of ridiculously quality tunes dropped this last week. We had tons of ATX stuff, from Daily Worker to Wet Dip to S.L. Houser to Voxtrot, so we were all over that. I fell in love with Dumb Things, which is the Aussie outfit opening up this week’s playlist. But, it’s probably a toss up for me whether the new track from The Witching Waves got more plays than that new Weakened Friends. A ripper of a week with some new names we hadn’t come across before like Amelia Coburn, so give the whole mix a Monday morning spin.
