"I Want It All Right Now" was produced by Grammy-winning producer John Congleton. They will be embarking on a North American stadium/arena tour with pop superstar P!nk.�Los Angeles' Grouplove blend a quirky, '90s-style indie rock sensibility with a spirited, arena-ready roar. It's a sound they debuted on 2011's Never Trust a Happy Song, which spawned the number one Billboard Alternative Songs Chart hit "Tongue Tied." They have continued to straddle mainstream and indie success, playing festivals around the globe and remaining Top 20 Billboard Alternative chart regulars with albums like 2013's Spreading Rumours and 2020's Healer. In March 2021, Grouplove returned with their surprise fifth album, This Is This.

Lukas Nelson & Promise of the Real are back with Sticks and Stones, releasing 7/14 via 6ACE Records / Thirty Tigers.

As Milky Chance prepare to share the idiosyncratic and inventive alt-pop songs that populate their new album Living In A Haze, they proudly boast over 10 million monthly Spotify listeners, an enviable touring resume (including stops at Coachella and Lollapalooza), and an upcoming schedule of world-trotting 2023 dates featuring the biggest shows of their career. Over the past decade, they've proven themselves to be, in their own low-key way, one of the biggest bands in the world. Their runaway hit debut "Stolen Dance" - which recently surpassed over 1 billion streams on Spotify - gifted Rehbein and Dausch with a platform far beyond what the duo could have imagined. They capitalized on that momentum with their 2014 debut Sadnecessary, which broke them as a global streaming and touring act, and followed that up with 2017's Blossom and 2019's Mind The Moon, which found them taking advantage of new resources to collaborate with heroes like Jack Johnson and Ladysmith Black Mambazo. On their independent debut Living In A Haze, Milky Chance thrive on writing the tightest, most groove-forward alt-pop songs imaginable - and then going back and distorting each sound into it's wildest iteration. Recorded at Jazzanova Recording Studios in Berlin with production help from DECCO, Jonas Holle, Tobias Kuhn, and Dennis Neuer as well as guest appearances from Fatoumata Diawara and Charlotte Cardin, Living In A Haze applies the band's endless musical curiosity to the propulsive logic of the best club music while delivering masterful songcraft. There are sublime moments throughout: Album opener and lead single "Living In A Haze" is an economical haymaker of a track that unfolds with an enigmatic logic, going from elegiac triplet guitar figure to a tight, post-Strokes rhythmic feel that provides the ideal musical metaphor to accompany Rehbein's dreamy delivery. Afrobeat rhythms power both "Flicker In The Dark" and "Feeling For You" - on the first providing a canvas on which to liberally splatter earthy acoustic textures and a cartoonishly colorful guitar solo, on the second lending a swiveling counterpoint to a narcotized vocal. And on "History Of Yesterday," Milky Chance marry a UKG shuffle with sunny atmospherics and cascades of reverberating piano to propel the band's breeziest chorus to date. Living In A Haze vibrates with possibility and passion - it's a thrilling juncture for band as they look forward to a heavy touring schedule in 2023 and beyond.

Over the past 20 years, The New Pornographers have proven themselves one of the most excellent bands in indie rock. They've constantly offered new sonic surprises with every album, and Continue as a Guest is their greatest leap to date. The group's ninth album and first for Merge establishes them alongside modern luminaries like Yo La Tengo and Superchunk when it comes to their ability to evolve while still retaining what made them so special in the first place. A dazzling and intriguing collection of songs that are truly built to last, Continue as a Guest finds bandleader A.C. Newman and his compatriots Neko Case, Kathryn Calder, John Collins, Todd Fancey, and Joe Seiders exploring fresh territory and shattering the barriers of their collective comfort zone.

Recorded at the band's show at the world-famous Wembley Stadium on 6th July 2019, The Who performed many of their greatest hits as well as songs from their acclaimed recent studio album with the help of the Isobel Griffiths Ltd Orchestra, which gave a new perspective to some of their best-loved material.

This release is available as a 2-CD + Blu-Ray containing an Atmos mix of the entire album and a 3-LP black vinyl edition. Both are housed in a trifold sleeve with an extensive booklet containing multiple photos from rehearsals, backstage, and the show.

During the 1980 spring/summer tour, Frank Zappa played a set at his favorite NYC nightclub - the famous Mudd Club. Zappa adored the place and ever wrote a song dedicated to it.

Puscifer - Existential Reckoning Re-Wired (INDIE EX)

�I felt a Funeral, in my Brain� is a rare duet in Andrew Bird�s deep discography. He and Phoebe Bridgers join forces to share a haunting reimagination of the Emily Dickinson poem, �I felt a Funeral, in my Brain.� Sparse and spectral, the arrangement pairs chilling, swelling shrieks of strings with the slight strum of guitar, as Bird and Bridgers trade verses and soar in harmony over Dickinson�s words. And paired with a B-Side rarity, "The Twistable, Turnable Man Returns", Andrew's tribute to the Shel Silverstein poem.

With over 12 billion global streams, 4 billion official YouTube views, more than 53 million followers across social media platforms, and 27 million videos posted on socials using her music, Melanie Martinez reemerges with a spellbinding new trailer heralding the arrival of her hugely anticipated new album, PORTALS.�
�
Martinez lifted the curtain on PORTALS earlier this week with an instantly viral TikTok video confirming the death of her notorious alter-ego �Cry Baby,� last seen considering whether to walk into the light at the beguiling conclusion of 2019�s internationally acclaimed full-length film, K-12. Today�s exclusive trailer � directed by Martinez and streaming now - now sees the appearance of a mysterious egg from which an enigmatic figure emerges.�
�
�Portals screams death is life is death is life is death is life. A continuous loop. A circle.� � MELANIE MARTINEZ
�
PORTALS marks the 27-year-old NYC-born singer-songwriter-filmmaker�s first full-length release in nearly four years following her 2 billion-streaming, RIAA Gold-certified second album, K-12, which proved a sensation upon its September 2019 release, entering the Billboard 200 at #3 � Martinez�s highest chart placement thus far � with further debuts at #1 on the Alternative album chart, and #1 on the Soundtrack album chart.

In a time when the popular choice is to chase the double yellow line down the road to country radio, Boy Named Banjo thrives on its fringes. The Nashville-raised five-piece is a fusion of contemporary country, Americana and folk-rock stacked on a foundation of bluegrass. The band, which has been together in some iteration since members were in high school, includes Barton Davies (banjo), Ford Garrard (bass/standing bass), Sam McCullough (drums) Willard Logan (mandolin, acoustic/electric guitar) and William Reames (acoustic guitar/harmonica). Reames and Logan played in a middle school garage rock band together, but it wasn't until Reames met Davies in high school that Boy Named Banjo started taking shape. Garrard and McCullough joined later and together the five guys comprise the band Boy Named Banjo that we know today. Boy Named Banjo has crafted a sound that incorporates an energetic blend of country, bluegrass, alt-rock, and folk-pop telling their stories through an honest, emotional, roots-driven perspective. In April 2020, Boy Named Banjo signed a record deal with Mercury Records Nashville and released their debut EP, Circles, the following year. Boy Named Banjo spent 2022 on the road playing some of country music�s largest festivals including Dierks Bentley�s Seven Peaks and Country Jam, Kip Moore�s Fire on Wheels Tour, they made their CMA Fest debut playing at the Ascend Amphitheatre Nighttime Concert, and played a sold-out hometown show at Nashville�s Brooklyn Bowl. The band most recently released the tracks �Heart In Motion� and �Heart Attack,� and is currently prepping its next project to be released in spring of this year.

The Valley of Vision is a 27-minute, breakthrough salvo of six songs that finds the band re-inspired once again, & is accompanied by an album length film shot in VR + 3D computed radiography technology. Andy Hull was inspired to start writing the record while rummaging around in his suitcase looking for his lyric notebook & instead found�The Valley of Vision, a 1975 book of old Puritan prayers his mom had given to him the previous Christmas. Capital Karma is the first new music from the project.

Pushing forward with the intensely self-aware truth-telling he�s always brought to his music, Ruston Kelly immersed himself in the making of The Weakness: a blisteringly honest, but profoundly hopeful album that reveals our potential to create strength and beauty from painful experiences. �I hope this music helps people become the hero of their own lives by understanding their own weaknesses, and I hope it helps them to see that tragedy doesn�t have to be the period at the end of the sentence.�

Available on 2LP 180G black vinyl.

A Wednesday song is a quilt. A short story collection, a half-memory,�a patchwork of portraits of the American south, disparate moments�that somehow make sense as a whole. Karly Hartzman, the songwriter/vocalist/guitarist at the helm of the project, is a story collector as�much as she is a storyteller: a scholar of people and one-liners. Rat�Saw God, the Asheville quintet�s new and best record, is ekphrastic but�autobiographical and above all, deeply empathetic. Across the album�s ten�tracks Hartzman, guitarist MJ Lenderman, bassist Margo Shultz, drummer�Alan Miller, and lap/pedal steel player Xandy Chelmis build a shrine to�minutiae. Half-funny, half-tragic dispatches from North Carolina unfurling�somewhere between the wailing skuzz of Nineties shoegaze and classic�country twang, that distorted lap steel and Hartzman�s voice slicing�through the din.

Rat Saw God is an album about riding a bike down a suburban stretch�in Greensboro while listening to My Bloody Valentine for the first time on�an iPod Nano, past a creek that runs through the neighborhood riddled�with broken glass bottles and condoms, a front yard filled with broken�and rusted car parts, a lonely and dilapidated house reclaimed by kudzu.�Four Lokos and rodeo clowns and a kid who burns down a corn field.�Roadside monuments, church marquees, poppers and vodka in a plastic�water bottle, the shit you get away with at Jewish summer camp, strange�sentimental family heirlooms at the thrift stores. The way the South hums�alive all night in the summers and into fall, the sound of high school�football games, the halo effect from the lights polluting the darkness. It�s�not really bright enough to see in front of you, but in that stretch of inky�void � somehow � you see everything.

The songs on Rat Saw God don�t recount epics, just the everyday.�They�re true, they�re real life, blurry and chaotic and strange � which is�in-line with Hartzman�s own ethos: �Everyone�s story is worthy,� she says,�plainly. �Literally every life story is worth writing down, because people�are so fascinating.�

For nearly five decades, Dungeons & Dragons has inspired generations of creative people to make movies, novels and, yes, music. Now that relationship is even more distinct with the release today of an album of music created by cutting-edge bands and musical acts all inspired by Spelljammer: Adventures in Space. The far-out storytelling in the world�s greatest roleplaying game�s latest offering is fertile ground for composing some of the most original songs you�ll hear this year from bands like Magic Sword, Shabazz Palaces and OSEES. Spelljams features a double LP�s worth of tracks from artists all produced by Chris Funk, guitarist from The Decemberists who plays D&D with many folks in the music scene in Portland, Oregon. Chris Perkins, story architect at D&D and lead designer of Spelljammer, worked with Funk to bring the Flash Gordon-esque soundtrack to life.

72 seasons. The first 18 years of our lives that form our true or false selves. The concept that we were told �who we are� by our parents. A possible pigeonholing around what kind of personality we are. I think the most interesting part of this is the continued study of those core beliefs and how it affects our perception of the world today. Much of our adult experience is reenactment or reaction to these childhood experiences. Prisoners of childhood or breaking free of those bondages we carry.�

-James Hetfield

Produced by Sean Ono Lennon and mixed by Dave Fridmann (Beach House, Spoon, The Flaming Lips) , Temples fourth full-length album takes place in an impossibly utopic island dreamed up by the four band members. With its resplendent collage of psychedelia, krautrock and time-bending dream-pop, Exotico brings that world to life in crystalline detail, all while exploring an entire spectrum of existential themes: impermanence, mortality, our connection with nature and the wild immensity of the mind.

Last year�s Big Time brought Angel Olsen to a deeper, truer sense�of self than ever before. Borne from the twin stars of grief and love,�the album delivered beautiful sense of certainty, the sure-footed sound�of an artist fully, finally at home with herself. But within that wisdom�comes the realization that there is no finish line, no destination or static�end point to life while you�re living it, and Forever Means collects songs�from the Big Time sessions that hold this common theme. They are, in�Olsen�s words, �in search of something else.�

�I was somewhere traveling,� says Olsen, �stopped for a few days and�wandering the city, and I was thinking �what does �forever� really mean?�What are the things I�m seeking in friendship or love, and how can��forever� be attainable if we�re always changing?�� Sitting with the reality�of that entropy, Olsen realized �maybe the secret to ongoing love is to�embrace change as part of love itself, that forever must have something�to do with playing, looking, constantly searching things out for yourself,�never letting yourself think you�re finished learning or exploring.�

Forever, says Olsen, �remains curious while trying also to be kind�and honest.�

All this packs into the four precious songs that comprise Forever�Means, songs from Olsen�s roads traveled and the ones ahead.��Nothing�s free / like breaking free� Olsen sings, comfortable with the�costs of her clarity, her heart and voice fixed on the present, the future,�the not-yet-known and the beautifully unknowable.

Kristian Matsson has never remained in one place for very long. Having spent much of the�last decade touring around the world as The Tallest Man on Earth, Matsson has captivated�audiences using, as The New York Times describes, �every inch of his long guitar cord to�roam the stage: darting around, crouching, stretching, hip-twitching, perching briefly and�jittering away...Mr. Matsson is a guitar-slinger rooted in folk, and his songs are troubadour�ballads at heart.�

Now, Matsson returns as The Tallest Man on Earth with Henry St., his sixth studio album�following 2012�s There�s No Leaving Now, full of �vivid imagery, clever turns-of-phrase,�and devastating, world-weary observations� (Under The Radar) and 2015�s Dark Bird Is A�Home, his �most personal record... surreal and dreamlike� (Pitchfork). Henry St. notably�marks the first time he recorded an album in a band setting. �My entire career I�ve been�a DIY person��mostly fueled by the feeling that I didn�t know what I was doing, so I�d just�do everything myself.� But now, longing for the energy that�s only released when creating�together with others, Matsson invited his friends to come and play.

Nick Sanborn (of Sylvan Esso) produced Henry St., which includes contributions from Ryan�Gustafson (of The Dead Tongues) on guitar, lap steel and ukulele, TJ Maiani on drums, CJ�Camerieri (of Bon Iver) on trumpet and French horn, Phil Cook on piano and organ, Rob�Moose (of Bon Iver, yMusic) on strings and Adam Schatz on saxophone.

A gorgeous and gripping portrait of Fenne�s last two years, Big�Picture was pieced together in an effort to self-soothe. Tracked live in�co-producer Brad Cook�s North Carolina studio, the album delineates�the phases of love and becomes a map of comfort vs claustrophobia.

Though its creation took place amid personal and global turmoil, the�ruminative yet candid Big Picture is Fenne�s most cohesive, resolute�work to date, both lyrically and sonically. �This isn�t a sad album ��it�s about as uplifting as my way of doing things will allow,� she says.��These songs explore worry and doubt and letting go, but those�themes are framed brightly.� With confidence and quiet strength, each�track provides an insight into Fenne�s ever-changing view of love and,�ultimately, its redefinition � love as a process, not something to be�lost and found.�

While the album was written alone in Fenne�s Bristol flat � a fact�intentionally reflected in its compact sonic quality � Big Picture was�transformed from a solitary venture into a unifying collaboration during�the recording process when she was joined by her touring band, Melina�Dutere of Jay Som (mixing), Christian Lee Hutson (guitar and co�production), and Katy Kirby (vocals).�

Notably, these 10 songs are Fenne�s first and only to have been�written over the course of a relationship; 2018�s On Hold and 2020�s�BREACH both confront the pain of retrospection, saying goodbye to a�love that�s gone. Big Picture does the exact opposite � rooted firmly�in the present, it traces the narrative of two people trying their hardest�not to implode, together.

Feist will release Multitudes � the 11-time Juno Award-winning artist�s sixth full-length album and first release since 2017�s critically acclaimed Pleasure � on April 14, 2023 via Interscope Records. Multitudes took shape soon after the birth of Feist�s daughter and the sudden death of her father. Amid meditations on mortality, connection and the frenetic state of the human condition, Multitudes ultimately radiates an ineffable sense of hope. Indie Exclusive Clear LP.

A River Running to Your Heart represents the fullest realization of Johnson's creative vision to date. It's a sonically diverse effort that largely explores the importance of what it means to be home, both physically and spiritually. Self-produced by Johnson-a first for Fruit Bats-with Jeremy Harris at Panoramic House just north of San Francisco, A River Running to Your Heart is Fruit Bats' tenth full-length release. The album finds the project in the middle of a people-powered climb leading to the biggest shows, loudest accolades, and most enthusiastic new fans in Fruit Bats history! It's hard to pinpoint a single reason for this mid-career resurgence. But after two decades of making music, hard-earned emotional maturity has clearly seeped into Johnson's already inviting songs, resulting in a sound that's connected with audiences like no other previous version of the band.

The 8 Mile Deluxe Edition 4LP (180g) is the Official soundtrack to the (Eminem) semi-autobiographical film of the same name; originally released on October 29, 2002. The album debuted at number one on the Billboard 200, and eventually became the fifth best-selling album in the US in 2002. Certified 6x platinum by the Recording Industry Association of America (RIAA). Apart from tracks by Eminem himself, the album also features hard-hitting tracks with Jay-Z, Macy Gray, Boomkat and more..."

The Wood Brothers have learned to trust their hearts. For the better part of two decades, they've cemented their reputation as freethinking songwriters, road warriors, and community builders, creating a catalog of diverse music and a loyal audience who�ve grown alongside them through the years. That evolution continues with Heart is the Hero, the band's eighth studio album. Recorded analog to 16-track tape, this latest effort finds its three creators embracing the chemistry of their acclaimed live shows by capturing their performances in real-time direct from the studio floor with nary a computer in sight. An acoustic-driven album that electrifies, Heart is the Hero is stocked with songs that target not only the heart, but the head and hips, too.

"We love records that come from the era of less tracks and more care," explains co-founder Oliver Wood. "When you use a computer during the tracking process, you have an infinite number of tracks at your disposal, which implies that nothing is permanent, and everything can be fixed. Tape gives you limitations that force you to be creative and intentional. You don't look at the music on a screen; you listen to it, and you learn to focus on the feeling of the performance.��

Throughout Heart is the Hero, those performances are matched by the visceral storytelling and songwriting chops that have turned The Wood Brothers into Grammy-nominated leaders of American roots music, even as their music reaches far beyond the genre's borders. The stripped-down swagger of "Pilgrim'' underscores Oliver's reminder to slow down and experience each moment as an interactive observer, rather than a passive tourist. A similar theme anchors �Between the Beats," where Oliver draws upon a meditation technique � maintaining one's focus on the space between heartbeats � to reach a new level of presence. The gentle sway of country soul gem �Rollin� On,� featuring horns by Matt Glassmeyer and Roy Agee, expounds on the time-honored tradition of love as the guiding light through darkness, while �Mean Man World" finds Chris Wood singing about his responsibilities as a father whose young daughter is poised to inherit an uncertain future. "Line Those Pockets'' is a universal call for mercy and understanding over materialism. "Everybody's just trying to be happy, so put your money away; line those pockets with grace," the band sings in three-part harmony during the song's chorus, which emphasizes compassion over cash as the world's true currency. Together, these songs offer a snapshot of a spirited, independent-minded group at the peak of its powers, always pushing forward and seeking to evolve beyond what�s come before.

"There's still acoustic guitar, upright bass, and percussion on this album � things people use all the time � but we're always thinking, 'How can we make this sound like us, but not like something we've already done?'" Oliver says. "Sometimes, the only way to do that is to get weird.�

That sense of exploration pumps its way through Heart is the Hero like lifeblood. Arriving on the heels of 2019's Live at The Fillmore, 2020's Kingdom In My Mind, and Oliver Wood's solo album Always Smilin' � all of which were released on Honey Jar Records, the band's independent label� Heart is the Hero is bold, bright, and singularly creative, a fully realized collective effort ultimately greater than the sum of its parts. Perhaps that's to be expected from a group whose willingness to experiment has earned acclaim from Rolling Stone and NPR, as well as an annual touring schedule of sold-out music halls and theaters on both sides of the Atlantic. Ask The Wood Brothers, though, and they'll tell you to expect the unexpected.

"We are never satisfied if we are not searching for new musical recipes," says Jano Rix, nodding to the uncharted territory that Heart is the Hero covers. Chris Wood agrees, adding, "We are one of those bands that isn't easily categorized. We know what our strengths are, but we can�t help but push the envelope, as well. It�s too much fun."

�PERMANENT.RADIANT is the newest EP from the darkly cinematic duo ��� (Crosses) featuring Chino Moreno of Deftones on vocals and Shaun Lopez on production and instrumentation. This project features the previously released singles �Vivien� and �Sensation,� along with the once exclusive vinyl track �Day One.� Eerie synth arrangements and pulsating percussion culminate in a lush, sprawling soundscape captured throughout this collection of songs. Chino Moreno's lyrics and vocal textures combined with Shaun Lopez's immersive production and sound design create a world that will likely transport anyone who listens to places both familiar and new.�

Everything but the Girl return in 2023 with the new album Fuse, after a 24-year hiatus. Written and produced by Ben Watt and Tracey Thorn over the spring-summer of 2021, Fuse is a modern take on the lustrous electronic soul the band first pioneered in the mid-90s. Thorn's affecting and richly textured voice is once again up front in Watt's glimmering landscape of sub-bass, sharp beats, half-lit synths and empty space, and as before, the result is the sound of a band comfortable with being both sonically contemporary, yet agelessly themselves.

Transparent Violet Sparkle Vinyl. Enter Shikari are a rock band from St Albans, UK. In 2020, they released their sixth album - Nothing Is True & Everything Is Possible - which also gave them their sixth album to debut in the UK Album Chart top 5. Frequently collecting Best Live Artist awards, Enter Shikari's seventeen-year career thus far has seen them rise from teenagers touring the UK grassroots venues, to festival main stages and arena headliners worldwide.

When Paul Janeway learned he was going to be a father he decided to scribe his thoughts (joy, fear, confusion) as messages to his then-unborn daughter. Those letters became Angels in Science Fiction, the stunning fifth album from St. Paul & The Broken Bones. Produced by Matt Ross-Spang at the legendary Sam Phillips Recording Studio in Memphis, it finds the band stretching further out, building on the shadowy psychedelia and intricate, experimental R&B of 2022�s The Alien Coast. Indie Exclusive Black & White LP.

Guitar virtuosos Rodrigo y Gabriela have announced the follow-up to the GRAMMY-winning album Mettavolution. In Between Thoughts�A New World is the duo�s first full-length album in four years.

ALL HANDS_MAKE LIGHT is the recently minted duo of Ariel Engle (La Force, Patrick�Watson, Broken Social Scene) and Efrim Manuel Menuck (Godspeed You! Black�Emperor, Thee Silver Mt. Zion). Longtime friends, collaborators, and stalwarts of the�Montr�al post-punk community, this is their first full-fledged project together. AH_ML�weaves these two unique voices through lustrous tendrils of blown-out tones and�drones, expanding on Menuck�s eponymous modular and analog synth-based work of�recent years, now imbued with an additionally searing, soulful warmth and melodicism�through Engle�s singing.�Darling The Dawn�is a spellbinding album of preternaturally�genre-bending sonics and songwriting: a sort of electronic shoegaze suffused with�freak-folk, kosmische, darkwave and post-industrial, flowing from ambient minimalism�to pulsing maximalism, conjuring traditionals sung in the haze of earliest light�accompanied by overdriven circuit boards powered with ungrounded wires.

Stephen Stills is an unyielding force of nature.��

The amount of music pouring out of this man could�ve fueled a half-dozen bands. Following the June�1971 release of his second solo album, Stephen Stills 2, he announced his first solo tour designed to�showcase all aspects of the ever-growing artist. Fans who were lucky enough to catch his historic debut�trek, dubbed �The Memphis Horns Tour,� were treated to the balladeer, the raving troubadour, the�acoustic bluesman, the soul driver, and by far the most passionate music maker offering his goods across�the better auditoriums and arenas that summer.��

This previously unissued live album, with performances hand-picked by Stills from his personal archives,�was recorded on August 20 and 21, 1971 at The Berkeley Community Theater. This 3,500-seat venue�made this one of the most unique and intimate stops on the tour that included his iconic concert at New�York�s Madison Square Garden. In many ways, these Northern California shows in Berkeley sound as if�Stills is leaving it all on the stage during a hometown gig.�

In addition to The Memphis Horns, Stills is backed by a loyal cast of friends, including his usual steady�rhythm section�drummer Dallas Taylor and bassist Calvin �Fuzzy� Samuels�along with keyboardist�Paul Harris, guitarist Steve Fromholz, and percussionist Joe Lala. Guesting on both nights of these�recordings was David Crosby, singing on his own nautical classic �The Lee Shore,� and the Stills-penned��You Don�t Have To Cry,� a Crosby, Stills & Nash favorite.�

The music on these grooves�timeless and era-defining performances� �Word Game,� �Love The One�You�re With,� �Sugar Babe,� �Cherokee,� among others, hasn�t aged a day since they were captured on�tape. This album, rather than being an artifact from a bygone era, sparkles and stimulates. It cajoles you�into thinking, feeling and�most importantly�moving. This is music that�s been unearthed because it�s�simply too good not to be blasting out of cars and exploding from apartment windows and onto the�streets.��

Stephen Stills Live At Berkeley 1971 is a cornucopia of priceless sound�and all of it bears the�distinct and loving fingerprint of Stephen Stills.

�Howie Edelson,�New York City,�December 2022

�I was finally able to trust myself fully,� says Indigo De�Souza of making her masterful third album�All�of This Will End.�Across 11 its songs, the LP�is a raw and radically optimistic work�that grapples with mortality, the rejuvenation that community brings, and the�importance of centering yourself now. These tracks come from the most resonant�moments of her life: childhood memories, collecting herself in parking lots,�the ecstatic trips spent wandering Appalachian mountains and southern swamps�with friends, and the times she had to stand up for�herself. �All of This Will End�feels more true to�me than anything ever has,� she says.

In many ways,�All of�This Will End�has become a personal motto for Indigo. �Every day I wake up�with the thought that this could be the end,� she says. �You could look at it�as a sad thing, or you could look at it�as a really precious thing: Today I'm�alive and at some point, I will not be in this body anymore. But for now, I can�do so much with being alive.� There�s a peacefulness in acceptance throughout.�As she sings on�the title track, �I�m only loving only moving through and�trying my best / Sometimes it�s not enough but I�m still real and I forgive.��She describes the experience of writing this song as �magic,� as if everything�about it from the words and melody had felt timeless and intangible and that�she was just writing it down. Like the hues of reds and oranges that her mother�painted on the LP cover,�All of This Will�End�marks a�warmer and unmistakably audacious era for her. It�s a statement�about fearlessly moving forward from the past into a gratitude-filled present,�feeling it all every step of the way, and choosing to embody loving�awareness.

Renowned singer, songwriter, musician, artist and best-selling author Josh Ritter will release his anticipated new album, Spectral Lines, April 28 via Thirty Tigers.

Produced by Ritter�s longtime collaborator Sam Kassirer (Lake Street Dive, Langhorne Slim), Spectral Lines finds Ritter expanding beyond the bounds of his previous work to create a record both atmospheric and profound. Dedicated to the memory of his mother, Ritter searches for commonality across these ten seamless tracks by exploring life�s most universal ideas�love, devotion and what it means to be connected, to both each other and to ourselves.

�I think it�s important for us to share some of our most basic and common experiences with each other, however we can. That�s what we really, really need right now. I know we have common experiences, and it�s important to telegraph those back because they don�t have to be lonely experiences.� - Josh Ritter

One of today�s most thoughtful and prolific voices, Ritter has released ten studio albums including 2019�s widely acclaimed, Fever Breaks, of which NPR Music praised, �He remains a hydrant of ideas while embodying an endless capacity for empathy and indignation, often within a single song.� In addition to his work as a musician, Ritter is also a national best-selling author, having released two novels to date: 2011�s Bright�s Passage and 2021�s The Great Glorious Goddamn of It All, for which the film rights have recently been optioned for development. Released to critical attention, Stephen King wrote in The New York Times Book Review that Bright�s Passage �shines with a compressed lyricism that recalls Ray Bradbury in his prime�This is the work of a gifted novelist.�

In celebration of the new record, Ritter and his band, the Royal City Band, will return to the road in spring �23 with headline shows at Chicago�s Thalia Hall, Nashville�s historic Ryman Auditorium, Washington, DC�s Lincoln Theatre, Philadelphia�s Keswick Theatre, Boston�s House of Blues and New York�s Beacon Theatre among others.

In addition to Ritter (vocals, acoustic guitar, electric guitar) and Kassirer (piano, organ, mellotron, synthesizers, drums), Spectral Lines also features Jocie Adams (clarinet, synthesizers, background vocals), Matt Douglas (woodwinds), Zachariah Hickman (upright bass, electric bass), Rich Hinman (electric guitar, pedal steel), Shane Leonard (drums, percussion, acoustic guitar, electric guitar, bass), Kevin O�Connell (drums, percussion, electric bass, electric guitar) and Dietrich Strause (acoustic guitar, electric guitar).�

The Sun is the fourth studio record from Joseph (sisters Natalie, Meegan and Allison Closner) and the follow-up to Good Luck, Kid (2019). It builds on its predecessor�s cinematic pop, bringing a thrilling new energy into each of the albums ten elegantly sculpted tracks. Joseph worked with acclaimed producers Tucker Martine (My Morning Jacket, First Aid Kit) and Christian �Leggy� Langdon (Amos Lee, BANKS) to build an irresistibly vibrant sound ranging from moody grandeur to pure anthemic glory.

Nigerian-American musician, songwriter and producer Joy Oladokun announces her new album, Proof of Life, out April 28, 2023 on Amigo/Verve Forecast/Republic Records. Her third original full-length album vividly captures the human experience with a profound simplicity, celebrating the little details and simple pleasures of being alive, while giving voice to some of life�s most complex experiences in a way only she can. The album boasts feats from Chris Stapleton, Noah Kahan, Mt. Joy and more.
