Three genre-bending new indie folk tunes

Westhead – “Benji”-The crooning sincerity of the lead vocal here reminds me of Rayland Baxter. I mean that as high praise. In fact, the whole composition reminds me of some really remarkable modern folk writers. By the time the strings enter the track, …

Three unconventional yet fantastic examples of indie rock in early 2021 (with a song of the year candidate)

Morningbird – “Who knew”-Honestly, it’s early doors on 2021 but Morningbird might be my favorite band making new music right now. This song absolutely shreds. It’s got a psych rock energy to it at times, but the vocals and overall mix is absolutely …

Three Americana tracks to add to your old time music playlist

Kyle McKearney – “Devil water”-This is a remarkable narrative folk song about… well, probably not actually water. It’s got a gentle storytelling style and an amazing vocal. The two work together for a style that we just don’t hear enough on the radio …

Three engaging new pop tunes to get you moving

Pete and Sarah – “Take me back”-I don’t typically feature music with 80s style synth energy, but this one hit me right. I dig the layered vocal harmonies on this one. The lyrical concept of reunifying after a split is actually really inspiring, …

Three new Americana tracks to make you nostalgic

Under the Rocks – “Palm of your hand”-They just don’t make bluegrass like they used to… well, they do. Here it is! Under the Rocks make old fashioned bluegrass. This one has a nice porch-sitting sing-along charm to it. The banjo, the vocals, …

Three indie folk tracks to jump start your week

Dylan Dunlap – “Soldier on”-Sometimes I think the term “inspirational” is overused, but I really do find Dunlap’s composition here to be inspirational. It’s the kind of composition that combines incredible harmonies with this sense of perserverance. Reflect a bit on where you’ve …

S. E. Webster – “How long”-I dig the easy going energy here. I appreciate the way the track throws back to a folk rock era from the 60s. Some might even consider this classic rock. I definitely appreciate the experimental layers that shake …

Three different takes on modern rock music for your exploration

Juliper Sky – “Another life”-This is one of the most lush arrangements of a rock song I’ve ever heard. The layers of synth and guitars are absolutely wild. There’s a resonance on the vocals here that fill the room with energy. It’s not …
