Willy Tea Taylor & The Fellership, Alt Country, There is no question that Willy Tea Taylor's life as a singer/songwriter was predetermined - his role realized the moment he wrote his first song. In it for the song, the hang, and the sounds he draws from his little, tenor guitar, Willy drew his inspiration from grainy videos he watched of the true visionaries of his genre: Steve Earle, Rodney Crowell, Steve Young and Guy Clark, sitting around Clark's little kitchen table loaded down with ash trays full of butts and half-smoked cigarettes, food, and booze on one Christmas Eve in 1975. Those guys, swapping songs without pretense, was what lit Willy Tea's fire. Ever since, that's been his passion - finding that hang and curating relationships through musical friendships that get him to his version of that night.

There's nothing like the primal tribal rock & roll transfiguration of a Reverend Horton Heat show. Jim becomes a slicked-back 1950s rock & roll shaman channeling Screamin' Jay Hawkins through Buddy Holly, while Jimbo incinerates the StandUp Bass. And then there are the "Heatettes." Those foxy rockabilly chicks dressed in poodle-skirts and cowboy boots slamming the night away.

Within the opening bars of SWMRS second LP comes a sea change. You think you're in familiar rock territory with the Oakland-formed quartet when suddenly an electronic beat kicks in that throws you for a loop. The same thing happens throughout the ten tracks that make up Berkeley's On Fire -- the band's most urgent, electrifying and groundbreaking record to date. "We started having conversations about how to make something brand new within the genre of rock," says co-frontman and songwriter Cole Becker. "That's what we talked about every single day." One of rock music's biggest challenges is overcoming the understanding that it's a genre heavily indebted to its own sense of history.

Brad Mehldau says, "It is a dream come true to play with Christian in this duo setting. Playing with Christian, especially in this configuration, is both joyful and daunting all at once.

Baby Man, the new album by Fruit Bats, is like nothing else in Grammy-nominated songwriter Eric D. Johnson's catalog. Little in the arc of his career--including Fruit Bats' evolution from home recording project to rollicking roadshow, his solo output, and his work with Bonny Light Horseman. There are no Fruit Bats albums like Baby Man. None until this point have demanded this kind of attention. It's a linchpin in Johnson's career, one that not only opens Fruit Bats up to a thrilling future but recontextualizes his past, arguing that he is one of his generation's great singer-songwriters and will be for some time to come.

"My brother and I have a lot of respect for bluegrass," explains guitarist/singer Ben Morrison, "but it was never in our blood. We were raised on California rock and folk and country music, so when we got our hands on some traditional acoustic instruments growing up, thatÕs just the energy and the attitude we naturally channeled. A fan started calling our sound Golden Grass, and the phrase just felt right."

When you mention the word "Reggae", there are certain names that immediately spring to mind like Bob Marley, Peter Tosh and Third World to name a few, but another artist that is firmly on the tip of people's tongues is Luciano. Born on the paradise island of Jamaica, as a youth he was heavily influenced and drawn to Bob Marley's positive "One Love Movement". As he got older and embarked on his own professional singing career, Luciano himself began to influence the lives of others around the world with his own spiritual interpretation of the movement. Since then, he has reigned as the "King Of Conscious Reggae Music" and is now one of the most iconic figures representing roots reggae today.

Different Thinking Tour 2025: Different Talking, the sixth and, so far, best album by NYC indie-rock four-piece Frankie Cosmos, seems to exist across time and space, as we all kind of do. It's a collection of fragments and memories, remembered places, and reinterpreted feelings that adds up to a lucent, humming whole: a sturdy, worldly indie-rock record about aging and the passage of time that nonetheless manages to feel sharply current. Frankie Cosmos lead singer, guitarist, and songwriter Greta Kline has long been heralded as one of contemporary indie music's most deft and most necessary writers, but on Different Talking, her lyrics soften out slightly, the wry cynicism that defined recent records now giving way to an acknowledgment of the awesome, and necessary, fallibility of the human brain and heart.
