Bill’s singular take on a folk rock confessional song with a country title, “The Man I’m Supposed to Be” goes past the point of genre boundaries, as Bill explores the feels of a life that was... (read more)

Land ho! In March 2026, The Dirty Three are crossing the ocean to embark on what will be an immensely-anticipated North American tour. These shows will be the trio’s first in the U.S. since 2012, following the release of their celebrated album, Love Changes Everything, last year. Their impassioned live performances stir up a volcanic force each time: plunging into an explosive free fall in one moment, then morphing into a divine pool of emotions in an effortless flow. Like witnessing any supernatural phenomenon, it's... (read more)

Tashi Dorji turns to the electric guitar for his third Drag City album, low clouds hang, this land is on fire, out January 30. After the furious acoustic improvisations that drove the previous two — Stateless and we will be wherever the fires are lit — his electric guitar now sets up a greater shock: a disarmingly gentle musical drift. Today, the first single "gathering" releases with a music video by Robert Beatty.

When asked why he turned the knob down from 11... (read more)

Geologist is the nom-de-théâtre of Brian Weitz, whose pursuits have been an active part of the music underground since he was 15, playing and working in alignment with an organic ensemble of friends that would one day choose to call what they were doing Animal Collective. Can I Get a Pack of Camel Lights?, the first-ever proper Geologist solo album — due out January 30 — is Brian’s pursuit of a musical answer to the not-oft-enuf-ast question: what if, back in...

Jim White's new album Inner Day is out tomorrow! Ahead of the game, Jim releases the gorgeous instrumental track "Two Ruffys" today with a new music video directed by Anna White.

"Two Ruffys" scores a feverish sense of disconnection, seeking to make sense of the isolation that life and death invariably brings. Named for a place down the road from his late father’s home, Jim’s song combines two pieces written in the wake, meditating on two states – an ambient weave... (read more)

Step inside! Anthony Moore's scorched-earth cabaret presents a new single today: "It's Fear." AKA & Friends’ long tones and drones, slow oscillation and scrape of strings are unto a pagan liturgy of electro-acoustic wonders, as Anthony, his image flickering like a hologram mixed with haunting Bowie-esque flashes, intones cautionary future-tales. As the sounds of the song-ritual unfurl, the earth below you grows hot. Is it the music, or...?

"The lyrics of 'It's Fear' came to me in a dream,... (read more)

Glyders pull up today with new tour dates and a new single/video on the sweeter side! "Moon Eyes" goes both electric and acoustic to highlight the wistful track, its formal rock ‘n roll elegance recalling the inevitable progression of classic missives like “Lookin' Out My Back Door” and “When I Paint My Masterpiece.” Glyders’ down home musings about time and fate ("Think I'm gonna go back home / hold some hands and bring my favorite songs") play out with moonlit romance, a lovely acoustic...

Off his upcoming new album Traveling Light, Rafael Toral unpacks a stunning new single today: “Solitude.” This Duke Ellington number has received many unique treatments over a near-century — from jazzers including Thelonious Monk, Marc Ribot, Matthew Shipp and Mary Halvorson — though this version owes the most to Billie Holiday’s matchless vulnerability. Commencing with an almost sacred air, as if reflecting upon ages of consciousness from a great height, Toral lingers along a reconfigured melodic path, his guitar refining the... (read more)
