Tinariwen Announce Hoggar

There’s never a bad day when a new track from Tinariwen arrives in your inbox, particularly if it arrives with news of a record on the horizon. This go round, they’ve taken their sound and added a vocalist, Sulafa Elyas, who is living in exile in France; I love the approach as it feels like it broadens the appeal of the group as it stretches faintly into pop…its also an important aspect of the Tuareg musical history. Their vibes feel familial, always feeling like you’re journeying with the group, actively participating in their work. Hoggar is out March 13th via Wedge.

Rob I Miller (Blues Lawyer) Announces Debut LP

Rob I Miller is no stranger on these ATH pages, but for the most part, he’s worked in various other projects like Blues Lawyer. But, today, Rob gets his own spot, as he’s just announced his solo debut, Companion Piece. You can hear some lineage to other Miller acts, like the fuzziness on the edges, but admittedly, there’s this huge, almost arena-rock riff work going on in the distance; it’s like you’re hearing a stadium show echo from a mile away, building this sort of constant reverberation. Then Rob comes in with his effortless cool and lays it atop the whole thing, letting his voice almost cruise with the top down as the wall of noise builds behind him. Companion Piece is out on May 12th via Vacant Stare.
