We’ll preface this one simply: we’re so excited to be sharing this one with you. If you missed it last month, we premiered the lead single from chameleonic Brooklyn artist Brook Pridemore – they’ve been around the block a few times and seen a lot of shit; hence, the title of their new album, Glad …
PREMIERE: Stream Eric Schroeder’s second album of 2021 in full ahead of release tomorrow
If you haven’t been keeping up, San Diego’s Eric Schroeder released his most recent album in April – a deeply personal offering that was, as Donnie and Marie Osmond didn’t quite say, a little bit alt-country, a little bit rock’n’roll. Called The Kid, it would have been an impressive enough collection on its own, but …

Though its core members are based in Seattle – that’s Guy Keltner and Ian Cunningham – Acid Tongue are no strangers to international collaboration or putting in work when it comes to their band.

PREMIERE: Free Country – ‘The Life Of Riley’: wistful, essential lofi from his hometown basement
FREE COUNTRY is the indie pop project of LA’s Jason Ribadeneyra, a man with an ear for a wistful, low-key melody delivered with weary truth in his voice. Tomorrow he releases his latest six-tracker, the introverted, pretty-as, guitar and piano indie pop stylings of The Life of Riley; but tomorrow, as Annie sings so famously, …
PREMIERE: Hear the wild, loose psych of Muzzle Tung’s new album ‘Gannet’ in full
I KNOW, I know. You’ve got an aural itch you just need to scratch, right? You want psych. But aah … that’s nearly hit the spot, but … OK, maybe not just psych. Loose and ragged, unafraid to let it all hang out; the edges fuzzing and bleeding. Hmmm. I’ve got just the thing, comin’ …
