Her songcraft was introduced to us with her 2018 debut, Quit the Curse, now, two years later her follow-up promises to be a much more nuanced affair.

Video of the Day: The Third Mind – Claudia Cardinale
A Supergroup of sorts, the band includes Dave Alvin, Jesse Sykes among others. The concept for the group centers around the Miles Davis method, a technique where there are no rehearsals or written musical arrangements. The band simply decides on a key and the music flows from there. The sound is very much influenced by the ’60s underground scene including Roky Erickson, Alice Coltrane, and Michael Bloomfield. Look for an E.P. to be released February 2020.
Video of the Day: Jimmy “Duck” Holmes – All Night Long
Another great find from Dan Auerbach’s Easy Eye Sound, Jimmy “Duck” Holmes is almost the very definition of The Mississippi Delta.
Video of the Day: The Darkness – In Another Life
Justin Hawkins and The Darkness show that they can take it low and slow with this ballad from their 2019 record, Easter Is Cancelled.
Video of the Day: The Picturebooks – You Can’t Let Go (feat. Chrissie Hynde)
This bad-ass Blues Rock two-piece mellows their vibe only slightly on this collaboration with The Pretenders Chrissie Hynde.
Video of the Day: Alison Krause and Robert Plant – Gone, Gone, Gone
From the highly excellent record Raising Sand from way back in the day, circa 2007. Plant and Krause were the best Rock God/Americana Icon pairing this side of Emmylou and Mark Knopfler.
Video of the Day: Tainted Lady – Hey Mr. Music Man
Slide right past the horrendous band name and let the music do the talking. Hailing from Denmark, these guys have a unique late ’70s sound that brings to mind Early Styx or a less Proggy Kansas.
Video of the Day: Henry’s Funeral Shoe – High Shoulders Everywhere
Their 2019 record, Smart Phone Rabbit Hole, is a under-heard gem courtesy of two brothers from Wales.
Video of the Day: Blackwater Conspiracy – Goodbye To Yesterday ( Say Hello to Tomorrow)
Very much in the stones, Faces, and more contemporary Black Crowes mold, there is a new record to look forward to in 2020.
Video of the Day: American Bombshell – Joyride
There is more than a little bit of Bon Jovi going on with this one, but make no mistake, this Indianapolis based band is a no-frills tour-de-force. Here they are just taming things down for the faint of heart. Consider this their Sister Christian Moment.
