To understand Grant Earl Lavalley, with his deep country moan and hints of Appalachian yodel, you must read his tweets…”Just like my van, my new shack also has no windows.” For his byline, he writes, “…as a child I used to enjoy finding fleas and ticks in dog hair.” His ‘shack’ is a cabin on the dirt backroads of Joshua Tree, in the Mojave desert, … Continue reading Grant Earl Lavalley – Let The Light Shine In
Back in November 2014 we described French-Anglo duo Bosco Rogers as “laid back, catchy-as-hell, sun-tinged psych-pop of the very best kind“. We’re pleased to say they more than live up to that early promise with their new single Beach Beach Beach, taken from new album Post Exotic.

There’s the late-night folk funk of Tell Me and Nightmare, the ham-fisted fey glam of Eyes of the World, the neon go-kart slow burner U. Angel, and even doo-wop filth in Open Up. Stream Tell Me below. Continue reading MM Shorts 857: Adam Payne
Having shared a couple of tracks already from psychedelic garage rockers Ranch Ghost’s just released album Lookin, here is another in the shape of Bleu. It is a potent Southern backwater concoction, with elements of 60s and 70s psychedelia and a chugging Velvets undertone. Spin it here. Continue reading Ranch Ghost – Bleu
