Video of the Day: Lori McKenna – The Balladeer
The first single from Lori McKenna’s recent record is a blissful ballad that details the pathos of a struggling balladeer trying to make it in the music business. “They’re never going to play her on the radio, so she hangs in the darkest bars with downtrodden broken hearts.”
Video of the Day: Dawes Who Do You Think You’re Talking To
Another sterling example of the right in your own living room writing style courtesy of the best Laurel Canyon Band in the game today, Dawes. This rockier side of the band evokes Jackson Browne’s’ “Somebody’s Baby,” and that’s never a bad thing.

Video of the Day: Dent May – Sea Salt and Caramel
Dent May, with his spirited mix of Beach Boys Bedroom-Pop and Americana, specializes in delivering retro goodness to the masses. Looking forward to his upcoming release, Late Checkout that fuses together Motown inspired Soul and Power Pop for an ear-pleasing retro journey.
Video of the Day: A Thousand Horses – A Song To Remember
A Thousand Horses has a record coming out later this year. Here, is their latest single, a swaying breakup song anthem. “Take a short cut to the jukebox to a bar stool and a pack of smokes even though I quit.”
“A Song To Remember is about being stuck in the purgatory of heartbreak and dealing with the rollercoaster of emotions that comes along with it,” says guitarist Bill Satcher, of the latest heartwarming anthem from Nashville’s countrified foursome A Thousand Horses. One of those arm-swaying singalongs you could readily imagine being played in arenas, while retaining a dive bar-friendly sense of contemplation intimacy.
Video of the Day: Cher and Raquel Welch – I’m A Woman
Vintage Cher and Raquel from the Highly unerrated Cher show, circa 1975.
Video of the Day: Leopold And His Fiction – It’s How I Feel
There is a healthy dose of Post Punk in the Iggy Pop mold along with a dose of wham glam, thank you, ma’am, in this new song from Leopold and His Fiction.
