For our money, only queen and Journey have been able to pull off replacing their front man while at the same time remaining a relevant musical force. Both of these bands burn the stage down.

Live Video of the Day: Small Victories (Later…With Jools Holland)
From their 2018 record, Go To School The Lemon Twigs, one of the more interesting bands to come out in quite some time, lay down a late era beach boys influenced song on the Jools Holland show.
Live Video of the Day: Dale Watson – The Dumb Song
His 2019 record, Call Me Lucky, is a strong contender for Honky Tonk album of the year. Here, the Texas Troubadour provides the back story to one of the songs, and sings it live on The Texas Music Scene.
Live Video of the Day: Dawes – A Little Bit of Everything (Live From Here with Chris Thile)
The last song on their 2011 release Nothing is Wrong “A Little Bit of Everything” tells the story about a desperate man who is about to jump off the Golden Gate Bridge. As he hoists his first leg over the rail his journey is interrupted. Spoiler alert, it ends well on this gripping version of a song that should savored with multiple listens.

The Tallest Man On Earth has a vibe all of his own as eclectically demonstrated here on Live From Here with Chris Thile.
Song of the Day: One Eleven Heavy – House of Cards
One of several really good songs from their latest album, Desire Path. These guys are S.F. Psychedelic, Allman Brothers by way of the Grateful Dead should you be scoring at home.
