Murray A. Lightburn as the lead singer of the Montreal Chamber-Pop band The Dears has released what might be the Soul album of the year with his latest solo effort Hear Me Out. With his street corner vocal style and an expressive voice that at times brings to mind Bryan Wilson and at other times Scott Walker to complement his Curtis Mayfield vibe, a new star is forming before your very ears.

Video of the Day: Drugdealer – Fools
This new record is on the can’t wait until it comes out list. The first single, “Fool’s”, is some sort of wicked brew mix of Pablo Cruise, Steely Dan, and Firefall. Brilliant stuff, indeed.
Video of the Day: Damon Johnson – Shiver Shiver
Damon Johnson, co-founder with Ricky Warwick of the Thin Lizzy spin-off band Black Star Riders has a new record coming out on March 8th. It should be a good one if this single is any indication.
Video of the Day: Elton John ft. Taron Egerton – Tiny Dancer
The original Elton John along with the young man that is playing him in the upcoming biopic Rocketman.
Video of the Day: Tora Tora – Son of a Prodigal Son
Back in the day Sunset Strip rockers Tora Tora deliver a sold first single in advance of their new record.
Video of the Day: Bang Tango – Someone Like You
While they never hit the big time these guys were a bit harder edged than Motley Crue, not quite as cool as Guns ‘N’ Roses, they certainly could blow Poison off the stage in the Sunset Strip era. Maybe they were just a bit ahead of their time.
Video of the Day: The Revivalists – Change
Another Dave Cobb Nashville gem of a band. “Change” is the latest single and video from their 2018 release Take Good Care.
Video of the Day: Strand of Oaks – Ruby
The latest project for Indiana based Tim Showalter. His Anthemic brand of Americana brings to mind My Morning Jacket.
Video of the Day: The Milestones – The Way To The Great Unknown
The Milestones from Helsinki Finland put out a Night Ranger meets Def Leppard vibe with a sprinkle of Black Crowes that fits quite nicely in 2019. This is the first single from their upcoming album, Beautiful Light.
Video of the Day: A.A. Bondy – Images of Love
Next to Bloodshot Records, Easy Eye Sound, and Third Man, A.A. Bondy’s record label Fat Possum is one of our favorite record labels.
