From the recent Grammy successes of Jon Batiste and Lost Bayou Ramblers to the explosion of Chapel Hart onto the national stage and the rising chatter around emerging artists Lilli Lewis and Joy Clark, the Americana music of New Orleans-based and  Louisiana-born performers is commanding attention. The Crescent City is exporting  more than the funk and jazz music it’s known for, and the birthplace of America’s music  is ripe with unique Americana voices.

Jay Silence Band just announced their latest single release, “Singer in The Band.” Available to download and stream now on all music platforms! Singer in The Band” was written by Jay Silence and co-produced by Chris Wright at  Violet Studios in Boulder, Colorado. The song is about a light-hearted perspective on how musicians and significant others don’t always see eye to eye and past failed relationships.

If you reach Appalachian singer, songwriter and multi-instrumentalist Martha Spencer, it’ll be from the top of her mountain in Virginia, likely when she’s out walking in the woods. Spencer grew up nestled into hills as old as time. Raised in mountain music (she grew up in the famed Whitetop Mountain Band, which dates back to the 1940s), Spencer channels the old sounds, but she can just as easily create new sounds from her worldly travels.

2020/2021. More than 18 months without being able to do a concert. This space of time, this imposed “pause”, was used to prepare a new album, a group album, like Magma hadn’t done for a long time.

Following the creation of a new line-up in 2020, Magma once again offered to musicians to bring compositions, Christian Vander having never made the deliberate choice to be Magma’s sole composer. But de facto, none of the dozens of musicians who participated in this adventure had offered a new song for decades!

Have you been craving the sounds of old-school country? Think Dolly and The Hag. Loretta and Waylon. Maybe you grew up listening to your Mom’s old Joan Baez vinyls? Or maybe, you tired of the commercial sounds of tight jeans and compensating cowboy hats and stopped searching for the perfect radio station long ago. Back when Randy Travis disappeared from the airwaves. If that’s you, then Francesca Brown is the place to be.
