What We’re Listening To (September 1, 2024)

Tuk Smith – End Of An Era

On this glam-adjacent ode to the good times gone by there is a real “All The Young Dudes” vibe to this Marc Bolan-inspired song from his latest record.

Dune Rats – Cheapskate

This Stoner-Pop band from Brisbane is the perfect cure for what ails you. With their lunkhead punk noise catching a wave.

High Fade – Bone To Pick

A brilliant ear blend of Prince and the Red Hot Chili Peppers with Bootsy Collins thrown in for good measure. This is a sunny gumbo of funk, disco, and 80s rock. Let your groove moves shine!

Warren Haynes – This Life As We Know It

With warm bass lines and slinky guitar licks the Govt. Mule main man and part-time Dead Head Warren Haynes almost goes where Jimmy Buffet sailed late in his career.

Taj Farrant – Mumma Raised A Man

Aussie guitar prodigy Taj Farrant at the age of 15, already has a new album out, appropriately titled Chapter One, and has shared a stage with Carlos Santana, Rob Thomas, and Orianthi among others.

Video of the Day: The Georgia Thunderbolts – Wait

Aptly labeled as the torchbearers of Southern Rock alongside Blackberry Smoke and Black Stone Chery, the Georgia Thunderbolts with their latest record Rise Above It All carry a gutsy and gritty vibe that will have you breaking out your old Molly Hatchett T-shirts.

What We’re Listening To (August 26, 2024)

The Sheepdogs – Take Me For A Ride

Coming off their somewhat ear-scratching foray into yacht rock with the last single, “Darlin’ Baby,” the boys from Saskatoon are back with the drop of a surprise E.P. A sunny ‘70s glam stomp of a single.

The Hot Damn! – Can you Hear Me Now?

How much more disco-era can you get with the mantra “come on, come on the disco’s calling” ringing in your ears? This single from their up and comer, Dancing On The Milky Way, due in September, is a straight up balls to the wall ‘80s Power Pop stunner.

Lions In The Street – Moving Along

This one is so Stones adjacent it might as well come with its own supermodel and heroin addiction. Back after life’s circumstances threw them several curve balls, Lions In The Street landed their time machine to fire up our speakers and light up our world.

The New Roses – When You Fall In Love

If Bryan Adams was the frontman for Def Leppard you would be getting the essence of German rockers The New Roses. This ‘80s anthemic rocker is a throwback to those days when rock and roll was pure.

Amyl & The Sniffers – Chewing Gum

Another banger of a band from the thriving Aussie music scene. This one head-bangs along led by lead singer Amy Taylor, with a swagger about her that would make Exene Cervenka jealous.
