Roots singer-songwriter Billy Woodward is slated to release a new single “Heartworn Hopeless Highway” April 22 in anticipation for his upcoming LP The Boy From The Bay. Tinged in poignance, the track details an odyssey in which the listener can picture the character at hand sojourning through life as he oscillates between finding light or wallowing in the darkness.

Birmingham, Alabama-based outfit Bob Marston & the Credible Sources have released “Real Magic, Good People,” the second from their forthcoming debut full-length LP So Long, due out June 3rd. Marston was walking his dog at a local nature preserve, processing a difficult breakup, and the groove for “Real Magic, Good People” bubbled up through his soul.

SoCal singer/songwriter, Emmy-nominated TV writer-producer & novelist James Kahn’s seventh album, By the Risin’ of the Sea, turns our expectations of traditional sea shanties on their heads by confronting our modern environmental struggles. The album was a finalist in the International Acoustic Music Awards, and the music video of the title song has won several film festival awards, including Best Music Video at the Global Film and Music Festival.

Today, Andrew Pitrone shares a brand new single entitled "Locket."

Speaking on the new track, Andrew wrote:

Old Sea Brigade has returned today with his first new release of 2022, continuing a breakout stretch that's seen the Nashville songwriter praised for making "some of the best quarantine art" (Consequence) and as one of SPIN's "favorite musicians" of last year. On "Man Made By Delusion" (Nettwerk Music Group), he employs a pitch-perfect bluntness to capture those moments where nothing feels right....an awkward conversation, a bad glance in the mirror, those moods where even sunshine gets under your skin.

With a raucous drum fill and a swirl of chorus-affected guitars, Carolina’s favorite band Blue Dogs kick off their brand new single “That’s How I Knew”—their first studio-recorded music released since 2004’s Halos and Good Buys. And for fans of the long-running band, it’s only the first of lots more to come from an entire album of new music, Big Dreamers, set for release on June 3rd.

“The more I love, the less I trust in money / The more I get to know the soul of my fellow man,” sings New Orleans’s prodigal Americana son Andrew Duhon in the opening song of his new album Emerald Blue. Empowered by a wealth of songs crafted and collected throughout the great shutdown and inspired by adventures well-beyond his home in Orleans Parish, Duhon put his poetry in motion and nailed down eleven tunes representative of his view of the world in its current state; politically, socially, and personally.

One microphone, a Wurtlizer electric piano, and the acoustics of Lucy’s Meat Market were all Jeff Babko (keys) and Woody Mankowski (vocals, saxophone) needed to record and film Ebunctions’ new single “She Don’t Love Me” (out now). The studio just happens to be run by the band’s longtime friend and engineer Pete Min, who mixed their upcoming debut This Just In right in house.

Today, emerging artist and poet Ben Zaidi unveils two new tracks from his forthcoming debut album.
