Last Week’s Jams (4.29 – 5.3)

Leave a comment

Well, I somehow managed to break the streak! This week we only have 23 songs to offer instead of the customary 28 per that last four weeks! Alas, I was sick, so were my kids, and a few of the tunes weren’t streaming. So, what did we cover? The good stuff. I was blown away and waxing nostalgic with the new Royal Headache announcement and accompanying single. It was good to see acts like Oh Boland, Neutrals and Stephen’s Shore give me my pop goodies. Plus, Austin powerhouses Urban Heat and Font were out there backing up hype with great new singles. Oh, and did you catch out great Rock n’ Recipe feature with R.E. Seraphin? Well, there’s still plenty to digest below, so enjoy yourselves!

Richard Tripps Shares Blue Eyed Open Sky

When Richard Tripps set out to work on his new album, he admit to be fascinated by the lo-fi sounds of acts such as the Velvet Underground; the opening track off that new LP definitely would have made Lou and Co. proud. There’s this natural disregard for what we come to think as studio magic, inevitably making this tune feel more lively than anything you’re likely pulling from a studio master. It’s a quick-hitting ditty, never really going beyond the settled groove, but I love the fact that it feels both old school and fresh simultaneously, like he’s channeled my past listening habits and refashioned them for the present. Looks like Between the Morning will approach in much the same fashion, so keep a look out for its July 5th release via Perpetual Doom.

Richard Tripps Shares Missing Piece of Time; Drops New LP

Leave a comment

Sliding into Richard Tripps‘ new single felt like curling up on my couch with my family; there’s something so familiar and comforting, in both the voice and the light strum of the songwriting. That light-hearted strum fits perfectly with the weighted tones of Tripps’ voice, but when little pops of accompaniment rise here and there, the song begins to take hold of you emotionally. When you hit the chorus, Richard switches his tones to something a bit softer, with little bell notes and a forlorn guitar sliding into the background. It’s the sort of gentle pop that deserve more attention, so if you dig it, be sure to stream the whole new LP now; find it HERE.
