<p>Nancy Atlas and her band of Journeymen have been dominating the East End Music scene or Long Island for quite some time. Known for her raw, live performances and stellar songwriting Nancy and her band, The Nancy Atlas Project, have opened for almost everyone under the sun. To name a few: Elvis Costello, Lucinda Williams, Toots and the Maytals, Jimmy Buffett, Crosby, Stills and Nash… the list goes on and on. The reason is simple. When people want a solid act to open their show and get the crowd warmed up, they call  Nancy and her boys because they know they will deliver. Every time.<br />Nancy grew up with gypsy blood in Commack, NY. Eager to get the buck out of dodge she spent her entire college years abroad at both Cambridge University in England and Richmond College in London and Florence.  She majored in art history, fine art, drinking lots of wine and talking shit. There was a serious recession going on the year she graduated college so instead of becoming a mad advertising executive she walked down to Portabello Road, London, bought a guitar for 60 quid and never looked back. It was pouring buckets of English rain that day so they gave her a black plastic bag to cover her guitar as it didn’t come with a case. Nothing, it is said, can stop true desire.<br />Nancy now lives in Montauk, New York with her husband Thomas and her two sons, Cash and Levon, and her daughter Tallulah. When she is not writing a song or on stage rocking out, she can be found clamming with her kids, surfing with her kids, walking with her kids, reading with her kids or <a href="http://nancyatlas.com/?page_id&#61;285">cartooning</a> for her kids. On rainy days she lazily traces tour maps of Europe with her right hand while sipping her beloved PG Tibs English Tea and smiling out into the East End Mist.</p><blockquote></blockquote>

<p>When you hear Annie Trezza it&#39;s often hard to believe that all that sound comes out of one person. With groovy guitar riffs, 60&#39;s inspired melodies, and transportive lyrics, she projects an energy well beyond her size. Upon listening to Dylan and Beatles records on repeat at a young age, she felt compelled to pick up a guitar and start writing her own tunes at age 14. She spends her summers playing all around her home in Montauk, NY. In the off-season when she&#39;s not chasing the waves she&#39;s writing new music, and continuing to play anywhere in the world she finds herself. Between her distinctive voice and her poetic lyrics, it&#39;s hard not to get a little carried away when listening to any of her tunes. And that&#39;s okay because that&#39;s exactly what they&#39;re meant to do. With an album to follow, her EP Blue Suitcase #2 was released December 2019.</p>

<p>“We can argue politics and policies, but, at the end of the day, we are bound together beyond these,” shares Americana singer-songwriter Inda Eaton. “I do what I do to connect—music has this great disarming quality—it leads to vulnerability quickly as people lay down their shields.”</p><p>In a career that spans 8 albums in 20 years, and a blur of endless tours, for her latest album, <em>Shelter In Place</em>, Inda opted for once to stay put. The 11-song record was literally tracked in the Springs, New York-based artist’s backyard. In the stillness of the album writing process, she sifted through her scrapbook of travels, and created a Huck Finn-spirited collection of story-rich heartland rock songs brimming with adventure, and personal reflection.</p><p>Inda’s warm humor, free-spirited emotionality, and literate flair make her songs feel as comfy as a favorite pair of jeans. Inda’s vocals have a whiskey and honey-tinged raspy quality that’s both stirring and soothing. Her stories and musings feel instantly resonate. Inda’s songwriting spans fist-pumping anthemics and bucolic balladeering, and it embraces a wide swath of influences, including country, classic rock, folk, and pop.</p><p>Inda’s music has been a global passport, taking her through Latin America, Australia, and Germany in her early years. There, she became something of a charming troubadour, winning over audiences with her quick wit, affable onstage connectivity, and her ability to fuse rousing hooks within a downhome roots-rock sensibility. These formative experiences have served her well in building an engaged following in the U.S.</p><p>Inda has toured in various configurations throughout America, both as a captivating solo performer and a powerful bandleader with a trusted posse of ace musicians. Select live highlights include opening for noted names like John Hiatt, Blues Traveler, Earl Scruggs, Hootie and the Blowfish, LeAnn Rimes, Shemekia Copeland, and Molly Hatchet. Additional performance highlights include tours for American Society of Young Musicians and VH1’s Save the Music Program.</p><p>Inda has been a fixture on the CMJ alternative charts, earned an AFIM “Best Independent Album” nomination, and garnered critical industry acclaim in publications such as <em>Billboard </em>and <em>Relix.</em></p><p>Through it all, her DIY flag has flown majestically. She has her own music publishing company, Skin to the Wind Productions, and Inda has self-produced or co-produced many of her albums.</p><p>In 2010, Inda formally committed to sharing music with younger generations in school music programs with what has become <a href="http://ideastoinspire.org/">Ideas to Inspire™</a>, an arts-fostering organization that works to provide students with creative experiences through music, storytelling and self-expression. When not touring in support of her albums, Inda and her bandmates can be found traveling from one k-12 classroom to another supporting i2i programs across the country.</p><p>For album 8, however, Inda put the brakes on to ponder her winding path, thus far. “The road is a muse for me—the best way to ground ideas for me is a road trip. This album is kind of the shelter to process the trips I’ve been on,” she details.</p><p>Besides geographic travels, <em>Shelter In Place</em> is rife with coming of age themes couched in loss. Also threaded throughout the album is Inda’s multi-layered take on America. Inda was born in California and raised in Wyoming and Arizona, so one could say she deeply feels the heart of the heartland. She’s also a gay woman who married in 2011.</p><p>“I do come from the heartland, and identify so much as an American—it feels like anything is possible here. We are the best chance for hope,” Inda says.  “I just get upset when we can’t get along.”</p>

<p>TAKE 3…OUR HISTORY <br />Lucas Magnozzi started taking guitar lessons with guitarist and musical mentor  Bill Fowkes in 2022. Lucas was 13 and the guitar lessons, over time, turned into jam sessions. Lucas went from being Bill&#39;s guitar student to Bill&#39;s musical partner and future bandmate.</p><p>After 1 year of lessons and a lot of hard work, Lucas was ready for his first gig. In April, 2024 Lucas and Bill performed an acoustic set at a local art gallery. It was a hit! They continued to play gigs at farmers markets, graduation parties, birthday parties, and barbecues.</p><p>In mid 2024, Lucas met Natalia Rahim at  East End Arts, a music and arts program sponsored by The East End Arts Council. There, Natalia and Lucas were members of two different bands. Lucas’ band had just won first place at the Southampton Battle of the Bands and Natalia’s band was runner-up.</p><p>Natalia, Bill and Lucas started rehearsing and TAKE 3 was formed. Natalia became an immediate addition, adding an angelic and wide ranging voice to the duo of Bill and Lucas. The band started performing at private parties, and music store events on the East End of Long Island.</p><p>TAKE 3 blends the guitar skills of 16 year old Lucas Magnozzi with the musicianship and musical experience of guitarist Bill Fowkes and the smooth and versatile voice of Natalia Rahim. TAKE 3 plays the songs that span many decades of rock n roll for a musical nite to remember.</p><p>The magic behind TAKE 3 is that the band reinterprets rock n roll songs that you have heard countless times. The arrangements are for two acoustic guitars and a female voice. The songs incorporate bass lines, jazz chords, lead playing and innovative vocals and harmonies. The net effect is that the interplay between the guitars and vocals is very prominent. The three musician format makes the songs transparent, light and musical….all the while still keeping the groove. Because if it doesn’t groove, they don’t play it!</p>

<p>Cat Clyde’s 3rd album is a wonder of deeply felt songwriting, a record that finds the Canadian singer-songwriter marveling at what’s around her while considering her own place within it all. With ten songs on the album, Down Rounder possesses an intimate and personal feel, transporting the listener to the recording studio as she performs these hair-raising tunes with confidence and passion. It’s a strong step forward as a songwriter and musician, as well as an immensely satisfying record for anyone looking to connect the loose threads between themselves and the outside world.</p><p>Work on Clyde’s follow-up to 2019’s spellbinding Hunters Trance began in her Quebec home studio in 2020, with plans to self-produce the record with her partner Strummer Jasson, in their cabin residence—recording was unexpectedly halted after an encroaching mold issue upended plans entirely. “It was difficult,” she recalls, “We were trudging forward, and it all fell apart. It was disappointing.” After moving out and returning back home, Clyde got in touch with producer Tony Berg. As the pair went through the finished material, they stripped back the songs once more, carefully digging into the details of everything. “I really learned a lot and enjoyed the experience,” Clyde recalls. “He gave me a lot of new tools and inspiration to connect more deeply to my songwriting and guitar playing.”</p><p>Berg’s schedule lined up with only a week’s notice in Los Angeles’ famed Sound City studios to lay down the entirety of Down Rounder in six days flat. “The musicians he brought in were really in tune with me right away,” she explains. “I feel I’ve really grown in my writing, and after struggling with collaboration in the past it felt good to really create with others while maintaining my own clear vision. I wanted these songs to have a live feel, because it was about capturing a moment to me.” Indeed, the record sounds both lively and lived-in, with Clyde’s malleable singing voice—spanning an appealing twang to a lovely, plaintive croon and anywhere in between—espousing an essential connection between our spiritual center and the natural world that surrounds us.</p><p>“Connecting with the natural environment around me inspired a lot of these songs, and sonically I feel like this record is very grounded as a result,” Clyde says while talking about the album’s thematic bend. “I wanted these songs to sound raw and rough, but also placed-together in a way that created—a simple beauty, like the changing seasons or a setting sun.” Keeping that bucolic perspective also drove the decision to include “I Feel It” and “The Gloom,” two songs whose recordings date back to the early Quebec sessions: “I wanted to still have that isolated perspective somewhere in the album, and those recordings still came together within the larger whole, too.”</p><p>The result is an album that stands as a crown jewel in a career that already includes millions of monthly streams across multiple platforms and placements on over 40 Spotify editorial playlists. On the expansive first single “Mystic Light,” Clyde takes on existential matters over chiming bells and an open-hearted melodic structure. “It’s a song about wanting to understand my journey and purpose,” she explains while talking about the song. “I’m exploring feelings of adriftness, asking for the mystery or magic of life to show her face so I can remember what it’s all for.”</p><p>Featuring lyrics that address the feeling of overstimulation and being emotionally overwhelmed, the bare and haunting second single “I Feel It” also marks the first time Clyde has played piano on recording. “I felt a bit nervous about playing the piano because I don’t see myself as a very strong player,” she states regarding the decision, “but it felt like it was just what the song needed.” And the driving third single “Papa Took My Totems” finds Clyde reflecting on the ravaging effects of colonialism, the state of the environment, and masculine-dominated society at large. “There’s a lot of sacredness that’s being destroyed in the world, and that’s difficult to deal with sometimes,” she explains. “Totems, to me, feel like places and things that are important and real, to witness the destruction of things like that is devastating”.</p><p>Over the breezy sway of the opening track and final single “Everywhere I Go,” Clyde ruminates on “letting go of things no longer needed, while keeping hold of things you hold true.” And Down Rounder indeed sounds like the work of someone who’s found themselves artistically and holistically, while extending a hand to any listener who wants to follow Clyde on her singular and thrilling path. But it’s also represents a bold leap forward for her as a nourishing and essential voice in todays musical landscape</p>

<p><span style="font-weight:400">With her enchanted voice and evocative songwriting, Leslie Mendelson has won the hearts and minds of both an adoring fanbase and fellow artists alike. No less than Jackson Browne has declared, “Leslie&#39;s melodies are timeless. They reach me way back in my youth somewhere. I hear traces of Burt Bacharach and Carole King, and hooks and passages that remind me of the pop songs I grew up hearing on the radio,” while The Wallflowers frontman Jakob Dylan shares: “Voices like Leslie’s can get away with almost anything. Along with being a great songwriter, this leaves her with few if any peers.” </span></p><p><span style="font-weight:400">A Grammy Award-nominated artist, Mendelson returns this summer with her fourth studio album, </span><em><span style="font-weight:400">After The Party</span></em><span style="font-weight:400">. For this latest effort, she collaborates with not one, but three producers: the legendary Peter Asher (James Taylor, Linda Ronstadt, Bonnie Raitt), the young, in-demand Tyler Chester (Madison Cunningham, Sara Bareilles, Sara Watkins) and her longtime songwriting partner, three-time Grammy Award-winner, Steve McEwan. Recorded at Jackson Browne’s studio Grove Masters in Santa Monica, CA, she was joined by an ace band featuring guitarists Waddy Wachtel and John Jorgenson, bassists Leland Sklar and Derrick Anderson, and drummers Jim Keltner and Abe Rounds. </span></p><p><span style="font-weight:400">“Collaboration was so important to me with these songs. My previous album, </span><em><span style="font-weight:400">If You Can’t Say Anything Nice…</span></em><span style="font-weight:400"> looked inward and was often colored by the dark socio-political climate circa 2018 and 2019 when it was written. Throw in the pandemic during which it was released, and it just became really clear that I needed to have fun making music again,” explains Mendelson. “When the opportunity presented itself to have both Tyler and Peter produce me, along with Steve who’s been with me since the very beginning of my career, it felt as if the stars had aligned and were demanding that I indulge in the joy of creating with all of these musical geniuses who wanted to work together.” </span></p><p><span style="font-weight:400">Throughout </span><em><span style="font-weight:400">After The Party</span></em><span style="font-weight:400">’s ten tracks, Mendelson crafts a distinctive folk-rock, pop-Americana flavor, evoking the sounds of Laurel Canyon, but with the downtown grit and sharp wit of Brooklyn, the city she has called home for over two decades now. There’s a refreshing realness and effortless musicality that feels both nostalgic and new on songs like “Rock And Roll On The Radio,” “Signs Of Life,” and “I Know A Lot Of People.” The album’s first single “Other Girls” is an intoxicating twist of aural voyeurism mixed with a healthy dose of sexual openness. Its chorus suggestively musing, &#34;I like it, I said I like it when you talk about other girls.” </span></p><p><span style="font-weight:400">&#34;‘Other Girls,&#39; is about women empowering women,” says Mendelson. “Who doesn’t love women?! It’s also another way of looking at conventional relationships and indulging in fantasy. A bit of commentary on the ever-changing world we live in.” </span></p><p><span style="font-weight:400">Other standout tracks, “Have a Little Heart,” &#34;The Good Life” and the title track offer warm musings on a life worth living and a newfound appreciation for the little things.</span><span style="font-weight:400"><br /></span><span style="font-weight:400"><br /></span><span style="font-weight:400">“I would love for this record to connect,” said Mendelson. “I think there’s something in there to speak to people. There are personal moments, there are moments of fun, where you can turn it up loud and sing along, and there are moments of reflection. This record is an emotional journey, and I hope that people can take it with me.”</span></p><p><span style="font-weight:400">“Leslie is one of these very rare singers who can combine elegant precision with the soul and emotional resonance of a deeply moving writer and performer,” concludes producer, Peter Asher. &#34;She has a remarkable voice and one we need to hear.” </span></p><p><br /><br /></p>

<p>Hudson Freeman is a brooklyn-based Lofi-folk artist, inspired and forged by the DIY<br />midwest. The 27-year-old Freeman continues to record and perform songs equal-parts<br />resonant, reflective, and poignant. He has quickly emerged as one of indie&#39;s most<br />enthralling new voices. His recent full-length, is a Folk Artist, helped solidify his<br />presence as the kind of songwriter unafraid to tackle life&#39;s most draining contradictions:<br />modern identity, digital disconnection, and faith.<br />Born to Evangelical missionaries, Hudson started writing songs upon a radical break at<br />the age of thirteen when his family suddenly moved from the suburbs of Dallas to The<br />Kingdom of Eswatini. The profound influence of indie big-hitters like Sufjan Stevens and<br />Bon Iver as well as college years spent in Springfield, Missouri made a do-it-yourself<br />midwesterner out of Hudson. Now, his new song &#34;If You Know Me&#34; has recently started<br />drawing in attention from the masses, catapulting Freeman into a wider spotlight than<br />ever. It&#39;s a moody blend of bedroom pop, folk, slowcore, and post-emo, stitched<br />together by a singular guitar riff and mantra-style lyrics, confirming Hudson&#39;s undeniable<br />knack for melody.</p><div><div><div><div><div> </div><div> </div><div>lots of hands:</div><div> </div></div></div></div></div><div><div><div><p>into a pretty room — lots of hands’ debut on Fire Talk Records — exists in the tear-stained early mornings of adolescence, just as the sun makes its first appearance over the horizon and thoughts of the night before begin to subside. A collage of reworked demos, freewheeling session standouts, and swatches of instrumental electronics, into a pretty room emerges as lots of hands’ most thoughtful work to-date. Solemn yet hopeful, into a pretty room occupies the space between moments of tragedy and triumph, offering a touching rumination on grief and loss, growing up and letting go.</p><p>Billy Woodhouse and Elliot Dryden, the core duo behind lots of hands, first connected in a Newcastle school music program at age 16. At that point, Woodhouse had been tinkering with lots of hands as a solo musical outlet, self-releasing music on Soundcloud and quietly beginning work on 2020’s mistake. Shortly before that record’s release, Dryden properly joined lots of hands, an effort which was quickly thwarted by global circumstances outside of anyone’s purview. Separated by geography and global chaos, Woodhouse and Dryden began work on lots of hands remotely, exchanging demos online to craft what would become 2021’s largely instrumental there’s someone in this room just like you, and 2023’s cult favorite fantasy. into a pretty room marks the duo’s first truly collaborative effort, with Dryden often trekking the vast northern English countryside to write and record in Woodhouse’s bedroom studio.</p><p>Between pints of beer and rounds of Fortnite, the two slowly chipped away at into a pretty room, whose name is lifted from a pair of demos recorded and released in a short span across November of 2023. The earnest tenderness of these tracks — “into a pretty room” and “the rain”, which appear newly re-recorded for the album — served as guiding light while the duo self-engineered the remainder of into a pretty room. Alongside these newly recorded songs appear Dryden’s unearthed demos, mined and reworked by Woodhouse. Lead single “game of zeroes” puts Dryden front and center on a Hank Williams-inspired ode to coming up short. &#34;I play a game of zeroes,&#34; he sings atop acoustic guitar, piano and digital frills, &#34;Everyone but me will always win.&#34; Elsewhere, “masquerade” interrogates defense mechanisms through electronic-speckled indie folk that is both jaded and joyful.</p><p>Dryden’s tracks appear alongside Woodhouse’s own songs, which span from touching instrumentals written for family, meant to help usher them through a chapter of monumental loss, to whispered ballads sung with loved ones. “All of my friends agree, you’re in my head,” Woodhouse intones alongside close collaborator and former roommate Mage Tears, “in my head with me.” On the understated late album stunner, “run your mouth,” he imagines a lost one as “a bunch of stars,” and ends the song fixated on “thoughts and memories of us.” Woodhouse’s contributions across into a pretty room ache with loss, but settle gracefully into sparkling ambient sonics that propel the record on its trajectory of self-discovery and acceptance. “Death is just a word, the feelings a reminder of past nights in the cold,” he filters through pitch corrected vocals on “the rain,” before sighing a resigned “oh well.”</p><p>These individually conceived tracks passed back and forth between the duo, as they ventured into their first moments of writing in the same place at the same time. “backseat 30” is the duo’s first joint venture, and the most immediate song in their discography, transforming youthful anxieties into an explosive anthem. &#34;I don&#39;t wanna waste my life up,&#34; Woodhouse manifests atop layers of twangy and kinetic instrumentation, &#34;hitting the backseat 30, talking with the dogs and the birdies, getting my nails all dirty.&#34; Early album centerpiece, “barnyard,” marks another proper collaboration on the record, with Woodhouse and Dryden’s vocals intertwining and reflecting a quiet sadness as looped guitars swirl in a pool of sparkling instrumentation: “I’ll brush your hair through a nightmare, breathing in the country air.”</p><p>Newly relocated from Leeds to their current base of Newcastle-upon-Tyne, lots of hands is anchored by the duo’s friendship, which emanates across the album’s 14 tracks. While conceived across painful moments of growth and grief, into a pretty room is a decidedly hopeful effort, crafted between two friends who have spent the better part of the last decade supporting each other through life’s challenges.</p></div></div></div>

<p><span style="font-weight:400">An intoxicating gumbo of global soul, surf noir, and psychedelic funk, all filtered through a vintage, analog haze. Listening to Gitkin feels like stumbling across a forgotten reel-to-reel in a dusty Havana pawn shop or a smoky Marseilles speakeasy. There’s a deep sense of wanderlust baked into every groove — part spaghetti western, part funk exotica, with twangy guitars that slither like snakes through a desert bazaar.</span></p><p><span style="font-weight:400">New Orleans-based Gitkin, also known as Brian J, a Grammy-nominated artist and producer renowned for his production skills (working with Cedric Burnside, Bab L’ Bluz, Bernard Purdie, Cyril Neville) and as the mastermind behind the funk ensemble Pimps Of Joytime, is experiencing surprising success with this passion project.</span></p><p><span style="font-weight:400">With monthly streams surpassing 300,000, Gitkin’s three self-produced studio albums have struck a global chord. In 2022, fueled by his growing streaming and social media momentum, he assembled a live trio featuring Palestinian multi-instrumentalist Simon Moushabeck (keys, accordion, percussion) and Cuban-American drummer Washington Duke. Together, they breathe new life and dimension into Gitkin’s recorded material. Since then, the group has toured across the U.S., Germany, the U.K., the Netherlands, France, and Austria—selling out multiple shows along the way. They’ve also supported acts like Steel Pulse, Say She She, The Altons, and Thee Sinseers.</span></p><p><span style="font-weight:400">After years of making songs where the vocals and lyrics take the spotlight, it&#39;s been liberating to let my guitar do the talking. With Gitkin, I get to bring in my love for African, Middle Eastern, and South American music and mix it with my native musicality that sits in American blues and funk. Performing as a trio with my two talented compadres provides a lot of space in the music that opens the door for what I like to call &#34;expensive moments.&#34; My favorite moments of a show don&#39;t usually happen by somebody playing something fast and impressive. More often it’s when a palpable essence takes over the room — you feel it, and you know everyone in the spot feels it. That&#39;s what keeps me getting in vans and planes and putting in endless hours in the studio.</span></p><p><span style="font-weight:400">In 2025, Gitkin released a run of singles—including the standouts “Paterson Switchback,” the cinematic “Motel Moon,” and the hypnotic “El Chambre”—each one expanding his audience and deepening his signature sound. Now, in collaboration with the Brooklyn-based label Wonderwheel Recordings, Gitkin is preparing the release of a new full-length album, with the first single rolling out in January 2026. The year will also bring a slate of U.S. shows and a European festival tour in July, marking a new chapter in Gitkin’s evolving sonic journey.</span></p>

<p>For over 50 years Black Uhuru has remained one of the most popular recognized prolific reggae band from Jamaica. The living legends have earned several achievements in the music industry including winning the first ever Grammy Award for reggae music. They’re long success along with having the highest reggae record sales after Bob Marley &amp; the most songs sampled by other artist over the years has allowed them to become Ambassadors of reggae. </p><p>The roots of Black Uhuru formed in Kingston’s “Waterhouse” District in the late 60’s. It is the home of founder &amp; leader Derrick “Duckie” Simpson along with all the rest of the singers from the group. The original Uhuru’s Swahili for “freedom” were Duckie, Don Carlos &amp; Garth Dennis. The first song was a Curtis Mayfield cover of “Folk Song”. They made only a couple more songs before Don left to pursue a solo career &amp; Garth joined Wailing Souls. The two were replaced by Michael Rose &amp; Errol Nelson both from Waterhouse. They recorded the debut album “Love Crises” in 1977 for Prince Jammy later re-released as “Black Sounds of Freedom”. Errol later left the group to join the Jays &amp; was replaced by female singer Puma Jones. </p><p>This new line-up is when the band began to collaborate with Sly &amp; Robbie &amp; developed the “classic Uhuru” sound of the 80’s. A unique style full of heavy drum &amp; bass, sharp keys, loud guitar riffs &amp; long instrumentals filled with whirly background effects &amp; the signature “wow oh-oh oh’s” echo. It was during this period they signed with Island Records. They began touring internationally &amp; started receiving worldwide attention. They recorded some of their most popular albums like “Guess Who’s Coming To Dinner” “Sensimelia” &amp; “Chill Out”. The album “Red” was voted #23 for Rolling Stone Magazine list of 100 greatest albums of the 80’s. And history was made when they won reggae’s first grammy award in 1984 for the album “Anthem”. Shortly after the grammy Michael left the group to go solo. </p><p>Another Waterhouse resident named Junior Reid became the new lead singer. Two albums were released “Brutal” nominated for grammy &amp; “Positive” with Ras Records. These albums included popular hits like “Dreadlocks on the Mountain” “Fit You Haffi Fit” &amp; one of the groups first music videos “Great Train Robbery”.

It was nominated for “Best Reggae Album” at the 61st Grammy Awards. For the first time it featured Duckie on lead for the entire album. To support the album the band headed on a major US Tour &amp; Hawaii. During the East Coast leg of the tour they appeared live on NPR’s Tiny Desk Concert series where they performed a new single “I See You” taken from the “Tropical House Cruises to Jamaica Reloaded” album produced by Sean Edwards of Contractor Music. Two music videos &#34;Chalice&#34; &amp; &#34;War Crime&#34; were filmed by Benji Cooper for the album both featured on Reggaeville. </p><p>Right before the pandemic Black Uhuru went on a small West Coast Tour with Dylan&#39;s Dharma &amp; Etana where they performed at the One Love Festival in Long Beach.

<p>What goes around comes around, and nearly 25 years since their founding in Denton, Texas, multi-Platinum country band Eli Young Band have come home.</p><p>Led by an unmistakable vocal and bringing a Texas-rock edge to modern country, the never-changing lineup of Mike Eli, James Young, Jon Jones, and Chris Thompson have spent two-plus decades on the run, growing from hometown heroes into globe-trotting, chart-topping pioneers. Yet in all that time, EYB never forgot its raising, and today the foursome reclaim the spirit behind their success.</p><p>Returning to their independent roots, the bold creative defiance that launched them into the mainstream – and in many ways to their old stomping grounds – it’s a new chapter driven by experience and a million miles of wisdom, from a band of brothers still very much in their prime.</p><p>“We started this thing when we were like 20 years old, and it’s been such a crazy road and such a longer road than any of us could have conceptualized at the time,” says Jones. “I think right now feels a little full circle, in a really nice way.”</p><p>“Now, we get to step back into our Texas shoes,” Eli agrees. “I think this new stuff finds us reaching deep into our past as a band. We’re remembering where the magic was – all those songs we wanted to record for our <em>Level</em> record, that felt way too edgy for Country Radio at the time.”</p><p>Indeed, after becoming icons of Texas’ vibrant college-bar scene – and then packing arenas all over the state (without label support) – that <em>Level</em> album from 2005 landed like a live wire, injecting EYB into the mainstream. They followed in 2008 with their Gold-certified breakout “Always the Love Songs” and <em>Jet Black &amp; Jealous,</em> one of three career Billboard Top 5 albums which include the Number One <em>10,000 Town</em>s and Platinum <em>Life At Best</em>.</p><p>Likewise, back-to-back Number One singles came with the 5X Platinum “Crazy Girl” in 2011 and 3X Platinum “Even If It Breaks Your Heart” (2012), plus the Platinum Number One “Drunk Last Night” and 2X Platinum Number One “Love Ain’t” after that. All along they kept the intensity of their live shows front and center, and with a following which now includes more than 1.4 million Facebook followers, 2.2 million monthly Spotify listeners and more, it’s time to get back to the point.</p><p>Ready to follow up 2022’s <em>Love Talking</em>, the band have returned to Panhandle House Studio in their hometown of Denton – the same studio where <em>Level</em> was born – bringing new tunes and new excitement along with them. All co-written as a band or with long-trusted collaborators, a fresh batch of songs return EYB to the raw, grassroots energy and emotional sting of their early work, geared for the stage and recorded without digital tricks.</p><p>For the band, being independent again for the first time in years isn’t a challenge, it’s a reward – and they took the chance to embrace not just renewed creative freedom, but the fun of their self contained live-band philosophy.</p><p>“Going back to Panhandle House where we recorded <em>Level</em>, it feels like we got to remind ourselves why we started making the kind of music we make,” Eli says. “When this music comes out, I think fans will know it is 100% coming from us.”</p><p>“Honestly, going to Panhandle House feels like going back to your childhood house in a way,” Jones notes. “It just evokes these memories, like this slightly-younger version of ourselves comes out.”</p><p>“One thing that’s really special is we’ve come full circle and remember that energy, but we’re also older and wiser,” Thompson adds. “We have years of studio, songwriting and performing experience under our belt, so we have more of a honed edge going in. That’s a really cool advantage.”</p><p>The comfort level is plainly evident. Exploring new corners of their patented sound by day, and going home to their families each night, the band were free to bring every ounce of the last 25 years to bear. Tracks like the lead single “Home In Hometown” are proof, featuring all the elements that made EYB what it is – from the electric vocal delivery to the deeply textured sonics and soulful theme.</p><p>A true-to-experience ballad of life on the highway, “Home In Hometown” stands as a heart-on-their-sleeve tribute to those the band loves most – and what they’ve learned from 20&#43; years away. While atmospheric guitars and a steady rhythmic pulse capture a sense of anticipation, another euphoric chorus helps the band unpack what “home” really means.</p><p>“I was digging deep into our Texas roots,” Eli says of the modern-classic midtempo. “I wanted to write something that felt like Pat Green or Jack Ingram would cut. And when you travel like we do, a lot of times you’re thinking about coming home and being with your family – but, it’s almost like if they meet you on the road, anywhere can be home. It just feels right. I wanted to capture that.”</p><p>More new tunes will roll out as 2025 and their 25th anniversary arrive, with the band continuing to celebrate an EYB homecoming. From feel-good singalongs and heart melting wedding anthems to pure, untamable romance and clever comebacks of love, they show the same stage-rocking Texas-country hit makers fans know and love, undaunted and with new maturity baked in. We all know seasons change, but if you pay attention long enough, things have a way of coming back around.</p><p>“It’s been a blessing just to be able to do this for so long, and over our career we’ve seen a lot of bands come and go,” Young says. “It feels it’s family, and we can take that with us as we go down this next part of the road.”</p><p>“Our music, since it’s been the four of us making it from day one, has such a strong through line,” Jones agrees. “The way we sounded in the beginning, that’s the way we’re going to sound in the end.”</p><p>“There is no A&amp;R, there’s no label head. There’s nobody saying, ‘Maybe you should do this, maybe you should push that,’” Eli explains.</p><p>“Yeah, we’ve got no one to blame,” Jones adds with a laugh. “Honestly, we just want people to know we still absolutely love making music, and this comes from a place of passion. Life is good and we’ve got stuff to say, we’ve got this thing we’ve built. I feel like we’re in a good place.”</p>

<p>Despite its title, Ratboys’ new album Singin’ to an Empty Chair is not defined by what’s<br />missing. Rather, it’s the beginning of an important dialogue with a close loved one vocalist Julia<br />Steiner finds herself estranged from. The music on the band’s sixth studio album – its first for<br />New West Records – fills the space that person left behind with 11 songs showcasing Ratboys<br />at the peak of their powers — twangy, effervescent, as confident as they’ve ever been, and<br />perhaps more emotionally interrogative than ever before. The four-piece Chicago band followed<br />up 2023’s highly acclaimed The Window by reconvening with co-producer Chris Walla to begin<br />tracking at a rural Wisconsin cabin before taking the songs to Steve Albini’s famed Electrical<br />Audio studios in Chicago and later to Rosebud Studio in Evanston, Illinois. The results veer<br />from bubbly power-pop on “Anywhere” to irresistible post-country on “Penny in the Lake,” along<br />with heart-piercing ballads like “Just Want You to Know the Truth” and an exhilarating detour<br />into the extraterrestrial on “Light Night Mountains All That,” which Steiner dubs the band’s<br />mammoth “wormhole jam.” Singin’ to an Empty Chair also marks the first Ratboys album written<br />since Steiner began therapy, which the singer/lyricist credits for the clarity found across the<br />album’s unflinching examinations of relationship and self. Fittingly, as the album begins by<br />extending a hand into the void, it concludes with a scene of serenity – all while weaving candid<br />honesty, humor, chaos, and whimsy along the way. “It&#39;s not all doom and gloom,” Steiner says.<br />“The experience of making this record definitely gives me hope for whatever happens next.”</p><p>/// Words by Patrick Hosken</p>

Performing with <strong>La Tribu</strong> (The Tribe), his 9-piece band from Havana, <strong>Cimafunk</strong> has electrified global audiences on massive stages and worldwide temples of music, making a name for himself as one of the great showmen of today. From <strong>New Orleans Jazz Festival</strong> and <strong>Lollapalooza Chile</strong> to becoming the first Cuban-born artist to play <strong>Coachella</strong>, this undisputed star of Afro-Latin music has earned the adoration of musical icons such as Argentine <strong>Fito Páez</strong>, who has hailed him as &#34;one of the lights of the continent&#39;s future,” the Godfather of Funk <strong>George Clinton</strong>, who refers to him as “the next one,” and <strong>Chucho Valdés</strong>, who credits <strong>Cimafunk</strong> with masterfully and organically blending “AfroCuban with African American, converting this into a new school that until now I haven’t heard done.”</p><p>Cimafunk’s distinctive musical fusion continued to grow in its artistry with both the release of his second album  &#34;<strong><em>El Alimento” (‘The Nourishment ) </em></strong><em>-</em>which was met with an abundance of critical praise that included <em>Best Albums of the Year</em> lists of<em> Rolling Stone, NPR </em>and more… as well as an equal volume of glowing reviews for his unrivaled live shows, which quickly made him one of the most in-demand festival performers.</p><p><strong> </strong></p><p><strong>Cimafunk</strong> has collaborated on records and shared the stage with the likes of <strong>Alejandro Sanz</strong>, <strong>CeeLo Green</strong>, <strong>ChocQuibTown</strong>, <strong>Chucho Valdés</strong>, <strong>Fito Páez, Fonseca, Fred Wesley</strong>, <strong>Galactic</strong>, <strong>George Clinton</strong>, <strong>Jon Batiste</strong>, <strong>Juanes</strong>, <strong>Leoni Torres</strong>, <strong>Lettuce</strong>, <strong>Lupe Fiasco</strong>, <strong>Preservation Hall</strong>,, <strong>Omar Portuondo</strong>, <strong>Orquesta Aragón, Robert Glasper, String Cheese Incident, The Soul Rebels and Trombone Shorty.

<p>On her tenth studio album, the masterful <em>Trouble and Strife</em>, Joan Osborne has issued a clarion call. With stunning vocals, a diverse range of sonics, and incisive lyrics, this deeply engaging collection of new original songs is her response to “the crazy, chaotic times we’re living in,” she says, and “a recognition of the important role music has to play in this moment. Music has a unique ability to re-energize people and allow us to continue to hang on to that sense of joy of being alive.” </p><p>Since she broke through 25 years ago with the multi-platinum <em>Relish</em> and its touchstone mega-smash “One of Us,” the seven-time Grammy nominee has never played it safe. Osborne has followed her restless musical heart, exploring a diverse range of genres: pop rock, soul, R&amp;B, blues, roots rock, gospel, funk, and country – all of which can be heard on <em>Trouble and Strife</em>, along with the Western side of C&amp;W <em>and</em> a touch of glam and disco. “For a lot of the record, we were going for a ‘70s AM radio vibe,” says Osborne.  As for the lyrics, the songs “are the most political I’ve ever written,” she conveys of her first album of originals since 2014’s confessional <em>Love and Hate</em>.  Osborne also produced <em>Trouble and Strife</em>, primarily recorded in her basement studio in Brooklyn and released on the label she founded in 1991, Womanly Hips. </p><p>Tackling serious subject matter in her writing while crafting music to “uplift,” Osborne assembled “a great live band” (including several musicians who played on her acclaimed last album, <em>Songs of Bob Dylan</em>): guitarists Jack Petruzzelli , Nels Cline, and Andrew Carillo, keyboardist Keith Cotton, bassist Richard Hammond,  and drummer Aaron Comess. For vocal harmonies, she enlisted exquisite vocalists Catherine Russell, Ada Dyer, Martha Redbone, and Audrey Martells, whom she’s “had the great privilege to work with over many years.”  The result is a Trojan horse of a record – music that is energizing, melodic, and hummable, with lyrics that call out the corrupt, the despicable, and the destructive. </p><p>Roots-rockin’ opener “Take It Any Way I Can Get It” inspires with the mandate “I’m still survivin’/I got to be dancin’”, propelled by a joyous gospel-tinged vocal attack backed by Wurlitzer and Southern-style intertwined guitars that dare you to sit still.  She cowrote the funky “Never Get Tired (of Loving You)” with Richard Hammond and her partner Keith Cotton, propelled by Cotton’s Prophet 6 synth, for her teenaged daughter: a message of stability in an uncertain world. “That song has a serious subtext,” says Osborne, but its “cool, retro flavor hopefully makes it a joyful thing.” The gorgeous ballad “Whole Wide World” finds Osborne hitting impossibly high notes, its sound inspired by the Chi-Lites; its message “is about hanging on to hope and envisioning something better for the future.” Another early ‘70s sound infuses the super-catchy “Boy Dontcha Know”: Osborne’s purring vocals are surrounded by a Spiders from Mars-era piano and Big Star-esque Mando-guitar; its singalong lyrics look at gender nonconformity and the obstacles one faces when born female.  </p><p>Abuse of power is the subject of two of the angriest songs on <em>Trouble and Strife</em>, with their infectious sound imbuing the songs a la a wolf in sheep’s clothing: the bluesy stomp “Hands Off,” punctuated by distinctive guitar riffs, denounces corrupt exploiters of people and the planet.  “That Was a Lie,” with scornful lyrics buffeted by buoyant pop rock, castigates “those camera-ready mouthpieces for corrupt officials,” according to Osborne. </p><p>Texan Ana Maria Rea, whose family emigrated to America when she was a child, contributed spoken passages in her native tongue to the rhythmic “What’s That You Say.”  “She tells the story of her family coming from Mexico City, where her father had been kidnapped, to the U.S. and how difficult that was,” says Osborne. “Her message is ‘I’m not afraid,’ and her mission is to help other people who are in the same position she was in. Ana Maria is a shining light of a person.”</p><p>Escape from a place where “there’s nothin’ left alive” drives Osborne to “Panama,” a showcase of her vocal range expressing gut-punch lyrics reminiscent of Dylan at his most vitriolic. But it is the Western-flavored title track that Osborne points to as the song most inspired by her “Dylanology” concerts that began in 2016 and led to her 2018 covers album,  “If you spend that intensive time living with his songs, I think it just rubs off on you,” Osborne admits. “’Trouble and Strife’ betrays the Dylan influence the most because of the odd characters coming in and out of these absurd situations (much like the ones we find ourselves in today).” </p><p>Osborne’s years of experience as a seasoned road warrior are reflected throughout <em>Trouble and Strife</em>, the album. Her tenure with what she calls a “meat and potatoes rock ‘n roll band&#34;, Trigger Hippy, shows up in “Meat and Potatoes,” a farewell</p>
