Joyer Share Glluu Video

Leave a comment

While the previous Joyer singles have seen the band dabbling in bits of shoegaze, it seems they’re new song has been influenced by a lot of the peers they’re about to tour with, like Wishy and Horse Jumper of Love. This one is a quiet bit of vocals and intricate guitar pieces, and while there’s a slight percussive bit, it hangs far in the distance, as the rhythm is mostly worked through by overlapping vocal harmonies. And, despite the pretty nature of the single, the group just can’t help themselves, peeling back the curtains for a wash of noise to close the tune out. Their new EP, I See Forward and Back, will be out next Friday via Hit the North.

Skirts Shares Run + Announces Tour

Leave a comment

Dallas-based Skirts last dropped us new music way back in 2021 with Great Big Wild Oak; it was a fairly quiet affair, mostly relying upon bedroom pop stylings from songwriter Alex Montenegro. But, with such an incredible batch of songs, the project began to hit the road, and with that, Montenegro felt more comfortable recording with her band. This tune definitely displays a fuller sound, whilst still holding to Alex’s personality; you’ll hear screaming guitars at the start, almost as i they’re embarking on a shoegaze rendition. But, those covers get pulled back, letting us glimpse the introspective craft of Montenegro. This single comes with the promise of new record for Double Double Whammy, as well as a solid tour out East through the later weeks of October.

Quivers Drop Oyster Cuts Title Track

Leave a comment

A few days our friends in Quivers released the title track to their exciting new record, Oyster Cuts. While their first single bombarded you with huge pop sensation, this track peels it back a bit, settling into more of a locked soothing sensation. It’s the rhythmic pulse that really makes the track successful, setting the foundation for a huge wash of synths to sweep in while Bella Quinlan belts out these ginormous pop notes. That budding atmosphere helps create this bit of pop haze, both hopeful and trepidatious; this ties into the theme of the lyrics wherein the narrator is moving away from personal hardship into something new, though still doubting a bit of the reality. Atop great new music, the band will also be embarking on a huge tour in the Fall, bringing their set to Austin in late October. Buy their new Oyster Cuts LP before its August 9th release date via Merge Records.

Aisha Burns Covers Gillian Welch + Tours with Torres

Leave a comment

Following her exceptional cover of Chris Isaak late last year, Aisha Burns announces some tour dates with Torres by sharing a new cover of Gillian Welch‘s “Look at Miss Ohio.” Impressively, Aisha’s voice doesn’t stray too far off from Welch’s original, which is a great reminder of just how much she’s come into her own through the years. For me, I love Burn’s honesty in her words about the song and its continued importance, expressing admiration for the protagonist “declaration of doing things in her own time, despite expectations.” It’s an admission that we can still expect growth and change from Burn’s work, and our job is to support and uplift where we can. Speaking of…look for Aisha on the road with Torres through the end of this month! Tune courtesy of Western Vinyl!

Lutalo Drops Push Back Baby Video

Leave a comment

Listening to Lutalo allows me to really digest my days; they create this mixture of soul and rock and smear it atop a pop canvas that leaves me with a sense of joyous bewilderment. Their lyrical content is always sharp, with this track hitting at capitalist greed and the systemic way it continues to run its course. But, you’d be forgiven if you miss that on the first run through (as I beg you to back) because the rhythmic bubbling is pure mental escapism. Not really sure where you’d file this, genre-wise, and perhaps that’s their best attribute, crafting tunes that speak, musically, for themself, with no need for identification. Keep an eye out for the Again EP, dropping via Winspear on August 25th, then hitting the road with Katy Kirby.

The Beths Drop Watching the Credits

Leave a comment

The Beths should theoretically be riding the high of the release and success of Expert in a Dying Field, but there’s no slowing down it seems, as today they’re sharing a fresh new anthemic pop song. In truth, the song’s a leftover hit from their last album, with Stokes writing about her love of learning about movies through reading their credits, though they tell the story through the director’s lens. Musically, it’s everything that you’d come to expect from the band, delivering hooks and rock wrapped into a tight little package that will surely get you singing with the band; there are many writing sing-a-long hooks like The Beths. Look for the band touring the world, including tons of US dates in the Summer/Fall…all date HERE. You can also check their brand new Tiny Desk Concert!

Taleen Kali Share Only Lovers Left Alive Video

Leave a comment

Taleen Kali will be hitting the road in just over a week, with an Austin date at Chess Club, so I wanted to make sure the band was on everyone’s radar, at least a wee bit. With an ode to vampire movies, feels drenched in sonic atmosphere, like the musical echoes of a cave filled with bats. I love how the vocals seem to kind of weave this magical spell, occasionally getting into the sultry vibe, but mostly operating with these pipes that feel like they could shatter your windows. If you dig it, stayed tuned to your local rags, as the band are spending the majority of October bringing you this song and more!

Broken Baby Drop Make Manager Video

Leave a comment

Sometimes you just need a straight rock tune to clear the cobwebs in your brain, something to clean the stress out. Well, if you’re in that boat, turn up this new track and video from Broken Baby; it’s a song that will draw some comparisons to Amyl/Sniffers, particularly in the way the vocals have that biting sharpness that seems to warn the listener to back up…though you could also hear it being a riotous performance in the live setting. Speaking of that live setting, the band have a nice little mini tour going on this week and next with our own ATX friends in Calliope Musicals, coming to Austin on the 16th.

Check Out Witness From Sour Widows

Bay area trio Sour Widows really made a name for themselves last year with the highly praised release of the four song EP Crossing Over. Now focused on an upcoming Fall tour, the band sent over a brand new single called “Witness” earlier today and it was just too good not to share with you all. This song can really take you on a musical and emotional journey through slow builds, super dramatic crescendos, and stunning harmonies packed into the nearly 6 minute song. The progression sort of reminds me of early Pedro songs with the deeply rewarding, intensely emotional builds after moments of melodic reservation. Ya dig.

Winter Shares New Single + Tours w/ Peel Dream Magazine

Leave a comment

After hearing everyone clamoring for Kate Bush lately, Samira Winter was like “Yo, hold my beer.” On this new Winter single, you get this cavernous brooding ground, something that feels like trudging through mud; it contrasts perfectly with the bright shimmering that is layered atop. It begins to swirl and mix, with more pronounced synth notes seeping through your speakers, all the while Samira’s voice just hangs in the air. It’s like this palpable mist, soothing all that ails you as the music spins through your earholes. This sort of dreaminess will definitely be on display when Winter takes hits the road with Peel Dream Magazine, plus we’re hoping we get a follow-up to Endless Space, sooner rather than later!
