Brother Dege Shares Another Single From New Album

Hailing from the Cajun swamplands and raging like the mad lovechild of Son House and Faulkner, Brother Dege has burned a crooked trail to the Promised Land. Avoiding traditional career paths, he’s spent decades exploring the backwoods weirdness of the southern U.S, working odd jobs and forging his own brand of southern/psyouthern music. Since the mid 90s, Dege has pushed slide guitar, resonators, and roots … Continue reading Brother Dege Shares Another Single From New Album

Our videos today include the hypnotic, swirling In The Rain by folk-pop quintet Wires In The Walls, the hazy sepia tones of Holograms pulsating Meditations and the boot-stomping combination of blues guitar, steel-driven harmonica and raucous vocals of Jeramiah Red’s Oh Pardon Me.

Introducing >>> Matthew Heller

We’ve been sat on this one a little too long, but Portland based singer-songwriter Matthew Heller is well worth discovering. Latest album Invitation is a collection of songs that are as gritty and as raw as you could wish for – shot through with anger, hope, and despair, they rage, burn and reflect both his own experiences, and the wider world, in a way that … Continue reading Introducing >>> Matthew Heller

Videos Of The Day: Decker || Saint Motel || Electric Shepherd || Said The Whale || Future History

Videos to enjoy today from decker with an appropriately gritty film for the parched, desert folk psychedelia of Shadow Days and from Saint Motel who have an excellent animation to accompany their track Daydream/Wetdream/Nightmare. Electric Shepherd’s psych-blues are showcased to good effect in The Escapist, which tells the story of a woman that cannot be loved, food that cannot be eaten, and a sports car that cannot be kept. Under … Continue reading Videos Of The Day: Decker || Saint Motel || Electric Shepherd || Said The Whale || Future History

New Album From Left Lane Cruiser

Good news! Left Lane Cruiser’s Freddy J IV and Brenn Beck are back with a new album of voodoo hillbilly punk-blues, Rock Them Back To Hell. By all accounts they’ve matured a bit too, adding harmonica, organ and even something they term trash percussion (that’ll be battering the bejesus out of cardboard boxes, paint tins, trash cans then). In truth the boys live up to every … Continue reading New Album From Left Lane Cruiser

Son of Dave Is Back

Back in 2008 we were big fans of one-man-band Son of Dave’s album 03, and his whole 1940s private detective look with sharp suit and trilby. Since then we’ve also enjoyed 2010s Shake A Bone, but all has been quiet since then. But now Son of Dave is back with his brand new single Hot Summer Nights. Three minutes of typically electrifying and idiosyncratic disco … Continue reading Son of Dave Is Back
