“Made Up Mind,” the first Bonnie Raitt single to be seen in the wild for some time sounds just like Bonnie Raitt should sound. And, that is a very good thing.

Video of the Day: Splinter – Something Else
For those of you that enjoy a little punk and roll the Dutch band Splinter may just be your jam. Their 2021 release, Filthy Pleasures, is a sonic blast from stem to stern. And, who doesn’t love a frontman with a mustache and a mullet?
Video of the Day: Helen Love – This Is My World
Twenty years 10 albums in, Helen Love, for us, is an exciting new find. This Swansea, U.K. band can best be described as a bubblegum pop-punk band with an affliction for The Ramones. The title track from their latest record, “This Is My World,” is a perfect gateway drug to deep dive into the back catalog.
Video of the Day: Ray Wylie Hubbard – Hellbent For Leather (feat. Steve Earle)
The upcoming Ray Wylie Hubbard record is going to be another star studded collaboration heavy affair. And, cool as hell.
Live Video of the Day: Maneskin – Beggin’ (Live On SNL)
Rock is the New Roll favorites Maneskin has entered the big top with two scorching performances on Saturday Night Live.
Video of the Day: Erin Rae – Modern Woman
This video is well-deserving of multiple plays for the prominent display of the vinyl of the Leon Russell And The Shelter people record alone, not to mention it is a great song. “Modern Woman” is from the freshly minted e.p. released in advance of her proper full-length, Lighten Up. Produced by Jonathan Wilson in his Topanga Canyon studio, this one is setting up to be a stunner.
Video of the Day: AJ Lambert – I Got It Bad (And That Ain’t Good)
A somewhat unnerving rendition of the standard courtesy of Nancy Sinatra’s daughter and Frank Sinatra’s granddaughter. This one is captivating after multiple listens.
Video of the Day: Joe Bonamassa – Curtain Call
Blues guitar player Joe Bonamassa continues to shift-shape himself, bending the blues continuum to his will. Here he expresses the Rock side of Blues Rock with this anthemic cut from his latest, Time Clocks.
Song of the Day: The Hot Damn! – Dance Around
If “Dance Around” wasn’t your summer anthem in 2020 there is still time to crank it up for this summer. This stadium and festival banger could be The Bangles by way of Pat Benatar playing at 45 speed.
Video of the Day: Art d’Ecco – Good Looks
The mystery value inherent in the work of Vancouver, British Columbia artist Art d’ecco is only enhanced by the inability to find out what his first name is. Despite this closely guarded secret, this cool-cut for the 2021 release, In Definition, will take you back to the glory days of David Bowie, Iggy Pop, or a more amped-up Rufus Wainwright.
