Connections completed, the pair draw from their rural-urban upbringings and like-minded interests in history and culture, early ideas are swapped electronically albeit fragments of tracks and lyrics that the pair have accumulated over the years. Songwriter-player-producer Andy Lewis is introduced to Judy Dyble, erstwhile vocalist with folk luminaries Fairport Convention and proto-King Crimson founder who, after a somewhat extended stay out of music has been been making a low-key, experimental return. >Judy Dyble & Andy Lewis – Summer Dancing CD/LP (PIAS America) The album also includes a funky, soulful take on Tom Waits' “2:19” and a blistering bluegrass-meets-jam-band reinvention of the classic “Hey Joe.”
From the up-tempo combination of what Douglas calls 'bebop jazz and caveman jazz' on “Cavebop” to the symphonically sweeping title track, What If delves into areas unexplored by any other musician, much less by Dobro. On What If, Douglas decisively merges jazz inclinations with the bluegrass, country, blues, swing, rock, and soul he's spent his life absorbing and performing, forging a sound that flies beyond the boundaries of anything he - or anyone else - has done before. Jerry Douglas, the 14x Grammy award winner who has played on over 2,000 separate recordings (Alison Krauss, Mumford & Sons, James Taylor, etc.), presents a new album with a unique sound and a brand-new outfit of musicians, hand-picked by Douglas himself. >The Jerry Douglas Band – What If CD/LP (Rounder/Concord) The emerging r ‘n’ bass artist releases his new mixtap. Cloakroom occupies a compelling space between worlds on Time Well, crafting its unique brand of thoughtfully heavy music. Grandiose and deeply insular, Cloakroom's second album is a work that transcends simple genre descriptors as the trio prove dually capable of conjuring lumbering walls of sound as well as forlorn Americana. Featuring one of his most enduring and classic hits, "Turn On Your Love Light", along with 10 other smoking R&B numbers - Here's The Man!!! is a fine showcase of one of the most influential and important R&B/soul singers of the 1960s. Here's The Man!!! was originally released in 1962 on Duke Records - Houston's legendary R&B label run by the infamous Don Robey - and is the second LP from Bobby "Blue" Bland. >Bobby Bland – Here’s The Man!!!

Third full length from the Icelandic death metal titans. >Beneath – Ephemeris CD/LP (Unique Leader) “Giddy and surreal synth-driven songs that fuse pointed social commentary with off-kilter melodies and teetering rhythms.”-Bandcamp New and Notable >Banny Grove – Cars In Control CD/7” (Nicey Music) They're just busier, more dynamic songs, animated by the tensions between aesthetic possibilities.” – NPR Most, including the closing instrumental suite, clock in under four minutes. The fact that all of that is in the mix doesn't, in fact, result in long songs. On their latest, which the three bandmates co-produced in partnership with Jason Lehning, a specialist in roots-inflected alt-pop, they display equal interest in the focused musical forms of indie rock and pop and the expansive potential of orchestral arrangements, jam band open-endedness and impressionistic singer-songwriter expression. The Accidentals became a sprightly trio several years back with the addition of drummer Michael Dause. But even back then, violinist Savannah Buist and cellist Katie Larson were occupied by making familiar MGMT and Led Zeppelin songs into pieces to which they could apply their classical chops. The Accidentals were surely aware of that movement, though they'd barely reached high school in Traverse City, Mich., when Mumford & Sons blew up. This was music made with minimum fuss - all four-on-the-floor foot stomps, straight-ahead strumming and spirited sing-along choruses. “It wasn't all that long ago that the qualities valued most highly in the youthful sectors of folk-pop and folk-rock were earnestness and simplicity. >The Accidentals – Odyssey CD/LP (SME Masterworks) New release from the Texas country music band.
