In some circles singer-songwriter, Katie Pruitt has been described as the female Jason Isbell, but she prefers to see herself as more of a Sheryl Crow vibing artist. Either way, we are looking forward to her debut album, Expectations, scheduled for release on February 21st.

Video of the Day: Ashley McBryde – Martha Divine
Ashley McBryde certainly stands out from the current crop of Nashville artists. Much less glossy and a lot more tattoo-centric than her contemporaries she has a bit more grit than one would expect. We’re not sure if “Martha Dive,” her latest song and video, is the first murder ballad of the year or not. Check it out and let your own eyes and ears be the judge.
Video of the Day: Jack J Hutchinson – Kiss Your Ass Goodbye
A gritty blend of Zakk Wylde, The Black Crowes, and Black Sabbath this Blues Rocker put himself on the musical map with his 2019 record, Who Feeds The Wolf.
Video of the Day: Gab De La Vega – XYZ
This new and eclectic singer-songwriter from Italy has a new record, Beyond Space and Time, Coming out on January 24th. This song is a folk-inflected number that captures the feelings of a person that sees his familiar world growing increasingly strange.
Video of the Day: Jose Feliciano – The Chain (Fleetwood Mac Cover)
Jose Feliciano is back doing his thing and he has been very much been missed. This version of Fleetwood Mac’s “The Chain” allows Jose to put his guitar mastery on full display with a show that would make Lindsay Buckingham proud. This is his best cover song since the cover song hall of fame worthy, “Light My Fire”.
Song of the Day: Jacques Dutronc, Iggy Pop, Diana Krall – C’est Si Bon
with a pairing that can only be made in musical heaven, Jacques Dutronc, the son of French Icons Jacques Dutronc and Francoise Hardy Joins Iggy Pop and Diana Krall on a song that is perfectly suited for the three of them. Look for this to appear later this year on the unironically titled Jacques Dutronc album, Frenchy.
Cover Song of the Day: I’m With Her – Lover’s Return
Much in the mold of The Highwomen, I’m With Her is a supergroup of three very talented singer-songwriters in Sara Watkins, Sarah Jarosz, and Aoife O’Donovan. Here, the trio covers a song that was included on the record when Linda Ronstadt, Dolly Parton and Emmylou Harris got together to record Trio and Trio II. This one is from Trio II.
Video of the Day: John Anderson – Years
John Anderson is still Swinging. Here, he teams up with our buddy Dan Auerbach at Easy Eye Sound on a tune that is part Country and part Indie Rock. Good Stuff. We can’t wait for the album.
Video of the Day: Weezer – The End of the Game
Proof that there is indeed a musical God, Van Weezer, to be released in 2020, is a tribute to 70’s and 80’s guitar rock in general and Van Halen in particular. Front man Rivers Cuomo describes the album as being like the Blue album “but a little more riffy”.
