Lilly Winwood’s new album Talking Walls beautifully captures a tumultuous period over the last couple of years; universally and, especially, personally. Like a lot of her performing songwriter compatriots, Winwood found herself working hard to pay the bills during that uncertain time in the music industry. “I’d be working in a restaurant all day and then at night, come 3 a.m., I’d be pulling half-written songs out of my apron,” she recalls. But through it all, Winwood never stopped writing.

The Indiana blues-rock outfit The Cold Stares have unveiled “Nothing But The Blues” and “The Ghost,” two new singles that reflect a new era of songwriting for the band. Both featuring characters fueled by desperate longings - for hope, for purpose, for comfort – “Nothing But The Blues” is an epic anthem that wrestles with hard times in a down-and-out town, while “The Ghost” channels the redemptive fervor of a Sunday morning tent revival.
