Alt-pop icon Gus Dapperton�s vast and ambitious album Henge builds a new world � tugging the listeners between night and day, socializing and solitude. With �nearly 2 billion collective streams across his career � the Warwick, NY native constructed the album with the concept of entering an underworld as the sun goes down and trying to get home before dawn�or risk being stuck in a time loop. Sonically the album delivers a contemporary eclectic sprawl, at times landing between 80�s new-wave and 70�s funk. Collaborators include Cruel Santino, Ocean Vuong, and BENEE � who Dapperton reunites with musically following their double-platinum viral hit �Supalonely� which has amassed over 1 billion streams. Dapperton�s music maintains the intimacy that made his previous offerings so resonant � including singles Horizons, Wet Cement, and Don�t Let Me Down.�

Jenny Lewis� fifth solo album, Joy�All arrives June 9th. Joy�All finds the singer-songwriter embarking on a new era, in a new town � and on a new label, as she joins the iconic roster of Blue Note/Capitol Records. While Joy�All pulls from a bounty of sonic inspiration � from classic soul to �90s R&B, as well as country and classic singer-songwriter records � the album�s rich, intimate and warm live sound is the hallmark of eight-time GRAMMY-winning producer Dave Cobb.

Each vinyl copy of `The Show' includes a randomly selected print of a letter handwritten by Niall about a song from the album.

A Jason Isbell record always lands like a decoder ring in the ears and hearts of his audience, a soundtrack to his world and magically to theirs, too. Weathervanes carries the same revelatory power. This is a storyteller at the peak of his craft, observing his fellow wanderers, looking inside and trying to understand, reducing a universe to four minutes. He shrinks life small enough to name the fear and then strip it away, helping his listeners make sense of how two plus two stops equaling four once you reach a certain age -- and carry a certain amount of scars.

�There is something about boundaries on this record,� Isbell says. �As you mature, you still attempt to keep the ability to love somebody fully and completely while you�re growing into an adult and learning how to love yourself.�

Weathervanes is a collection of grown-up songs: Songs about adult love, about change, about the danger of nostalgia and the interrogation of myths, about cruelty and regret and redemption. Life and death songs played for and by grown ass people. Some will make you cry alone in your car and others will make you sing along with thousands of strangers in a big summer pavilion, united in the great miracle of being alive. The record features the rolling thunder of Isbell�s fearsome 400 Unit, who�ve earned a place in the rock �n� roll cosmos alongside the greatest backing ensembles, as powerful and essential to the storytelling as The E Street Band or the Wailers.

They make a big noise, as Isbell puts it, and he feels so comfortable letting them be a main prism through which much of the world hears his art. He can be private but with them behind him he transforms, and there is a version of himself that can only exist in their presence. When he plays a solo show, he is in charge of the entire complicated juggle. On stage with the 400 Unit, he can be a guitar hero when he wants, and a conductor when he wants, and a smiling fan of the majesty of his bandmates when he wants to hang back and listen to the sound.

Youth Lagoon - the beloved project of Trevor Powers - returns with the announcement of Heaven Is a Junkyard, his first new album in eight years, out June 9th on Fat Possum, and a new single/video, " Idaho Alien." With whispers of country, Heaven Is a Junkyard is mutant Americana in a world of love, drugs, storytelling, and miracles-held together by Powers' voice and an upright piano. In Powers' own words, " Heaven Is a Junkyard is about all of us. It's stories of brothers leaving for war, drunk fathers learning to hug, mothers falling in love, neighbors stealing mail, cowboys doing drugs, friends skipping school, me crying in the bathtub, dogs catching rabbits, and children playing in tall grass."

As Milky Chance prepare to share the idiosyncratic and inventive alt-pop songs that populate their new album Living In A Haze, they proudly boast over 10 million monthly Spotify listeners, an enviable touring resume (including stops at Coachella and Lollapalooza), and an upcoming schedule of world-trotting 2023 dates featuring the biggest shows of their career. Over the past decade, they've proven themselves to be, in their own low-key way, one of the biggest bands in the world. Their runaway hit debut "Stolen Dance" - which recently surpassed over 1 billion streams on Spotify - gifted Rehbein and Dausch with a platform far beyond what the duo could have imagined. They capitalized on that momentum with their 2014 debut Sadnecessary, which broke them as a global streaming and touring act, and followed that up with 2017's Blossom and 2019's Mind The Moon, which found them taking advantage of new resources to collaborate with heroes like Jack Johnson and Ladysmith Black Mambazo. On their independent debut Living In A Haze, Milky Chance thrive on writing the tightest, most groove-forward alt-pop songs imaginable - and then going back and distorting each sound into it's wildest iteration. Recorded at Jazzanova Recording Studios in Berlin with production help from DECCO, Jonas Holle, Tobias Kuhn, and Dennis Neuer as well as guest appearances from Fatoumata Diawara and Charlotte Cardin, Living In A Haze applies the band's endless musical curiosity to the propulsive logic of the best club music while delivering masterful songcraft. There are sublime moments throughout: Album opener and lead single "Living In A Haze" is an economical haymaker of a track that unfolds with an enigmatic logic, going from elegiac triplet guitar figure to a tight, post-Strokes rhythmic feel that provides the ideal musical metaphor to accompany Rehbein's dreamy delivery. Afrobeat rhythms power both "Flicker In The Dark" and "Feeling For You" - on the first providing a canvas on which to liberally splatter earthy acoustic textures and a cartoonishly colorful guitar solo, on the second lending a swiveling counterpoint to a narcotized vocal. And on "History Of Yesterday," Milky Chance marry a UKG shuffle with sunny atmospherics and cascades of reverberating piano to propel the band's breeziest chorus to date. Living In A Haze vibrates with possibility and passion - it's a thrilling juncture for band as they look forward to a heavy touring schedule in 2023 and beyond.

10 Year Anniversary Edition of Sturgill Simpson's debut album�High Top Mountain.�The anniversary edition includes an "Old King Coal" blacked out album cover with a glossy embossed�jacket, and is pressed on translucent black vinyl.�Sturgill Simpson's authenticity stands out like an island of hope in a sea of tacky. Pure and uncompromising, devoid of gloss and fakery. High Top Mountain�s dozen instant classics evoke the sound of timeless country in its many guises and brings back the lyrical forthrightness and depth that permeated the music Simpson absorbed during his Kentucky childhood. Bonafide mountain hillbilly soul, as pure as you are going to find anywhere.

"In 2004 the Drive-By Truckers released what would become the best selling album in their illustrious catalog. The Dirty South is a concept album that examines the state of the South, and unveils the hypocrisy, irony, and tragedy that continues to exist.

Throughout the ten tracks in their new album Let There Be Music, you can�hear the spaciousness Bonny Doon allowed themselves since their 2018�sleeper cult-classic Longwave. Their latest musical journey is one that has�big payoffs for devoted followers and undeniable rewards for anyone just�stumbling across the band for the first time. After extensively touring Longwave by supporting Band of Horses, Snail Mail and Waxahatchee, Lennox and�Colombo were invited by Katie Crutchfield to collaborate on Waxahatchee�s�critically acclaimed album Saint Cloud. �The experience raised the ceiling on�our imagination,� Colombo said.

Soon after, Colombo and Kmiecik, whose steady percussion and devotion to�the songs creates a container for the indelible guitar lines, both entered a time�of serious healing, Jake tending to complications of his Crohn�s disease and�Bobby to a brain injury and undiagnosed Lyme disease. While these detours of�doctors� appointments and experimental care were taking place, the members of Bonny Doon were also playing on Waxahatachee�s Saint Cloud tour.�These obstacles and commitments drew out the making of Let There Be Music�for several additional years, and in the process, redefined the record as an�achievement in perseverance for the band.

On their long-awaited third album, we get a glimpse into the pure joy of Bonny�Doon. The album serves as less of one conceptual story, and each song�as their own individual offerings of putting words to the ordinary experience�of being alive. The band is at their most dynamic and the songwriting deftly�explores new terrain. Let There Be Music is brimming with small truths - both�profound and mundane, comforting and difficult - and we are invited to revel in�them all.

Singer/songwriter, bandleader, and human being Samantha Bowers first began writing songs at age 12 while taking piano lessons and listening to Bruce Springsteen, Billy Joel and Freddie Mercury playing on the family stereo. By 16, she developed a love of jazz and began to study the great female vocalists of the century (mainly Ella Fitzgerald, Etta James and Sarah Vaughn). She and her eight-piece group make music that has elements of pop, soul, funk, rock and jazz and focus on themes like coming-of-age, defiance, and self-expression. Their genre blending performances are high-energy, honest and quirky, influenced by the great performances of those childhood classic rock heroes.

Deer Tick�s first new body of work since 2017, Emotional Contracts is their most collaborative to date, and sees all four members operating at peak songwriter power.

Deer Tick�s ATO Records debut adds an even greater vitality to their feverish collection of timeless rock-and-roll.

�Several times, as I listened to M. Ward�s Supernatural Thing, I asked myself what year it�was. Was it 1952, and was I listening to a track from the Harry Smith Anthology? Was it�1972, and was I eavesdropping on the recording session for After the Gold Rush?�No, it�s 2023, and M. Ward is one of the special contemporary artists who invite such�questions. Ward has clearly mastered the whole vocabulary of American popular music�and made serious decisions about how to employ it for his own ends. What Ward shares�with Harry Smith�s artists and Neil Young is a context of musical and human values:�authenticity and intimacy. Supernatural Thing�s original songs sound freshly pulled from�the ground, with a little earth sticking to them. Ward�s lyric delivery has that slight rawness�the ear loves, and his voice has quiet dignity and great tenderness. Supernatural Thing is�an open-hearted, inviting album.�

The album�s guest stars � First Aid Kit, Shovels & Rope, Scott McMicken, Neko Case,�Jim James, others � enliven the album with surprises. On �Too Young to Die,� the women�s voices in First Aid Kit spread a light frosting over the melody, and their Beach Boys-like chorus on �Engine 5� makes the song sound like an instant hit. Eight of the album�s�ten songs are Ward originals. There�s an unusual Bowie choice, �I Can�t Give Everything�Away� from Blackstar, and a live rendition of Daniel Johnston�s �Story of an Artist.���-By James Cushing

Both as a solo artist and as one-half of She & Him, M. Ward became one of the defining�voices of the American indie landscape in the 2000s, earning fans and critical acclaim�for his distinctive brand of breezy West Coast Americana which pulled from folk, country,�blues, pop, and experimental indie rock elements. Ward established himself with warm,�analog-minded releases like 2003�s Transfiguration of Vincent and 2006�s Post-War before joining forces with singer/actress Zooey Deschanel to form the highly successful indie�pop duo She & Him in 2008. Over the following decade, Ward split his time between projects, releasing a 2009 album with indie supergroup Monsters of Folk, several high-profile�albums with Deschanel including She & Him�s Columbia-issued 2014 set Classics, and�critically acclaimed solo releases like 2009�s Hold Time, 2012�s A Wasteland Companion,�and 2018�s What a Wonderful Industry. Ward kicked off the next decade with a deeply�atmospheric set called Migration Stories and a Billie Holiday covers album Think of Spring�most recently.

Tommy Prine�s debut album �This Far South'' coming June 23, 2023 is not only a long awaited introduction but a testimony to Prine�s 20�s and the loss, love, and growth that has defined them. Co-produced by close friend and kindred musical spirit, Ruston Kelly, and beloved Nashville engineer and producer, Gena Johnson, the album is rich and dynamic from cathartic jams to nostalgic storytelling.

It wasn�t until Prine reached his mid-twenties, though, that he considered a career of his own in music and began to share with others the songs he wrote in private. His songs were quickly met with excitement and enthusiasm, which sonically brings together a colorful patchwork of musical influences and lyrically explores existential questions and emotional experiences.

The album�s title track, �This Far South'' marks a turning point in Prine�s life as he found himself struggling to escape a dark, aimless period. He ultimately found the courage to act on choices that would see him to the other, brighter, side.

�There were several years where I felt without purpose, spent all my time partying, and just existing. I found myself at a fork in the road and chose the better path, and in that moment, I swore I would never be This Far South again.�

Grief is a major throughline of Prine�s current work.� In 2017, Prine lost his best friend to an overdose.

�Since then, I have lost some more friends and have others who are still navigating the ups and downs of struggles with drug abuse.�

His song, �Letter To My Brother�,� was written as a message to the friends he�s lost, those in Recovery, and to friends who are still struggling.

He still grapples with the passing of his father in April of 2020.� �The world lost one of the greatest songwriters of all time, but I lost my dad.�� Prine bears the loss of his father and the memories he carries for others on the track, �By The Way�.

�When I'm playing certain songs, I can literally look out in the crowd and tell who else has lost their dad,� he says. �I can immediately tell which people have experienced, specifically, losing their father. They'll come up and tell me afterwards, and I'll be like, �Yeah, like, I figured that this conversation was going to happen,� because I could see their reaction. It�s been really powerful to see real-deal evidence that grief is a shared experience, and that suffering is a shared experience between humans.�

Prine capped off 2022 with his first solo tour across the United States. He was heavily involved with You Got Gold, an event series in Nashville honoring the life and songs of John Prine, and performed at AmericanaFest as an official showcasing artist.� He also debuted two original songs, �Ships in the Harbor� and �Turning Stones�.

�Ships in the Harbor� is a tender meditation on impermanence and change, with Prine communicating the universal experience of loss through poetic observations of the seemingly mundane.� The song found its way onto a series of editorial playlists including Spotify�s Fresh Folk playlist and Amazon�s Fresh Folk & Ameriana playlist.� It was also praised by a number of outlets including Billboard, Garden & Gun, and Saving Country Music who wrote, �With one song, Tommy Prine has already accomplished what many musicians and songwriters work their entire careers to accomplish, which is to make such an indelible emotional connection with an audience.�

This year, alongside his own runs of headline shows, Prine opened for Tyler Childer on his �Send In The Hounds Tour� in London.� He was also named one of Amazon Music�s 2023 Breakthrough Artists to Watch.

�I feel like I've learned more about myself in the last year and a half than I ever have in my life,� Prine says. �And I think that speaks a lot to doing something that I'm passionate about. I love and respect the craft. Just hitting the road and doing what so many people before me have done and will continue to do, it's really resonated with me. I think it's transformed me into the person that I am meant to be.�

RSD Essential 039 * The Avett Brothers' 2007 release "Emotionalism" is the album that caught the attention of legendary producer Rick Rubin and got him to sign the band to their first major studio. "Emotionalism" also was their first album to crack the charts. Full of new Folk, Blues and Bluegrass riffs for a modern world, it is a lively take on everything from romance to paranoia. Of course, they still kick in some solid Rock 'N' Roll for good measure.

GRAMMY-winning global superstar Kelly Clarkson is set to release her highly anticipated tenth studio album chemistry, arriving June 23rd, 2023. On her most personal album to date, these songs explore the arc of a relationship. About the album, Kelly says �having chemistry with someone is an incredible, and overwhelming, feeling. It�s like you have no choice in the matter. You are just drawn to each other. This can be good and bad. This album takes you down every path that chemistry could lead you down.�

Bobbie Nelson�s musical career dates back to the 1940s. Naturally gifted on the piano, she played in churches, revival tents, concert halls and honky-tonks, eventually joining her brother Willie Nelson�s Family Band in the early �70s. ��Amanda Shires says: "Much of my path seemed possible because I saw a woman working and making a career of music at a young age, and that woman was Bobbie Nelson.� Loving You is a collection of songs the duo have played and treasured their entire lives.�

Produced by Chris Thomas (Roxy Music, Sex Pistols, Pretenders, Wings), �Empty Glass� was Townshend�s next solo release appearing in April 1980. The songs predominantly deal with issues Townshend was struggling with at the time, including the death of Keith Moon, the Who�s former drummer.

These limited-edition black vinyl versions have been mastered by long-time Who engineer Jon Astley and cut for vinyl by Miles Showell at Abbey Road Studios with a half-speed mastering technique which produces a superior vinyl cut and are packaged in original sleeves with obi strips and certificates of authenticity. �Empty Glass� features a full-colour inner beg with full lyrics and a 300mm x 600mm poster.

�Rough Mix� was initially released in September 1977 while The Who were on hiatus and was a collaboration with Small Faces bassist the late Ronnie Lane and features contributions from Who bassist John Entwistle, Eric Clapton, and Rolling Stones drummer Charlie Watts amongst others.

These limited-edition black vinyl versions have been mastered by long-time Who engineer Jon Astley and cut for vinyl by Miles Showell at Abbey Road Studios with a half-speed mastering technique which produces a superior vinyl cut and are packaged in original sleeves with obi strips and certificates of authenticity. �Rough Mix� is presented in a gatefold sleeve.

Three-time Grammy Award winner Lucinda Williams will release her highly anticipated new album Stories from a Rock n Roll Heart on June 30th (Highway 20 Records/Thirty Tigers). 2023 will be a special year for Williams: she turned 70 in January and on April 25th will release her long-awaited memoir Don�t Tell Anybody The Secrets I Told You (Crown, a division of Penguin Random House LLC).

The last couple years have been challenging for Williams. In 2020, a tornado damaged her new home in Nashville, followed two weeks later by the beginning of the COVID lockdown. Later that November, Williams suffered a stroke that partially impaired some of her motor skills on the left side of her body, forcing her to learn to walk again and taking away her ability to play the guitar.�Stories from a Rock n Roll Heart�marks a triumphant return from one of our most revered artists and songwriters. Williams is in great form as heard on her new single �New York Comeback,� written by Williams, Tom Overby and Jesse Malin, with Patti Scialfa and Bruce Springsteen on backing vocals.

Stories from a Rock n Roll Heart�was produced by Williams, Overby and Ray Kennedy, who also engineered. The album includes guest backing vocals by Jeremy Ivey, Jesse Malin, Buddy Miller, Angel Olsen, Margo Price and Tommy Stinson.

Wild Creatures is a career retrospective album containing twenty-three of Neko Case�s most impactful tracks from her discography, and will now be available on CD and 2x LP.

With a career spanning over twenty years, she has famously collaborated with The New Pornographers and Case/Lang/Veirs in addition to releasing many critically acclaimed solo albums, including �Fox Confessor Brings The Flood�, �Middle Cyclone� and most recently 2018�s �Hell-On�.

Gathering power year after year, Neko sings with the fierce abandon of a newborn infant crying in a basket in the woods. Since escaping the labels of country and Americana, the gorgeous train-whistle vocals of her early career sit submerged in her later style, where their ghost can appear any minute. When her voice jumps an octave, it�s almost visible, like sparks at night. �I never knew where I wanted to go or what I wanted to do with my voice,� she says, �but I just wanted to do it so bad.�

The Vinyl configurations include: 2 LPs with printed inner sleeves, in a Gate- fold jacket.

Gag Order is an album that finds the GRAMMY-nominated pop star, Kesha, excavating the deepest recesses of her soul to date.

Solid Gold, the long-awaited solo debut album from acclaimed musician Miles Miller will be released July 7 via Thirty Tigers.

Produced by Sturgill Simpson, the album features twelve original songs and marks the first body of work released by Miller as a solo artist. The album was recorded over the course of three days in January 2022 in Nashville, TN.

Of the album, Miller shares, �Solid Gold is a love story, but about love being around and love leaving. It�s an entire story essentially about wanting to get back to the love you have, realizing you shouldn�t give it away, to love leaving, hitting the road because of it leaving, feeling love on the road, love from home, to realizing you need to keep walking and wish them well. It�s an album about the cycle of a love story that crumbles.�

Raised in central Kentucky, Miller has spent the better part of the past decade on the road as a drummer for artists including Sturgill Simpson and Town Mountain. In 2009, he was discovered by acclaimed producer Dave Cobb after playing drum covers on YouTube at the age of 16. While drumming and vocals are what he has been most noted for, playing guitar is his first love.

Spending time off of the road allowed him to hone in on his songwriting and it became clear that the time had come to step away from the drum kit and focus on his own artistic vision. This June, Miller will embark on a handful of dates supporting Tyler Childers. Additional tour dates to be announced.

"I Want It All Right Now" was produced by Grammy-winning producer John Congleton. They will be embarking on a North American stadium/arena tour with pop superstar P!nk.�Los Angeles' Grouplove blend a quirky, '90s-style indie rock sensibility with a spirited, arena-ready roar.

In March 2021, Grouplove returned with their surprise fifth album, This Is This.

PJ Harvey�s tenth studio album �I Inside the Old Year Dying� marks her first release in seven years, following UK #1 album �The Hope Six Demolition Project�. On this album, which was recorded with long-time creative collaborators John Parish and Flood, PJ Harvey builds a sonic universe somehow located in a space between life�s opposites, and between recent history and the ancient past. Scattered with biblical imagery and references to Shakespeare, all of these distinctions ultimately dissolve into something profoundly uplifting and redemptive.

Living in LA, there are a lot of people looking for that one trick that will help the new them emerge fully realized, successful & happy.

Former selves melting away, some becoming fathers, some enduring periods of isolation, loss, & identity crisis. Time Will Wait For No One is a mantra of reassurance in response to relentless changes.

Acclaimed indie-folk quartet Darlingside announces the July 28^th release of their anticipated new album Everything is Alive (Thirty Tigers).� Everything is Alive is the follow up to the band�s celebrated 2020 release Fish Pond Fish, and while Fish Pond Fish celebrated the unity and harmony of multi-instrumentalists Don Mitchell, Auyon Mukharji, Harris Paseltiner and David Senft, Everything is Alive showcases the individuality of each band member.� And while their talent for lush harmonies and intricate songwriting has distinguished �Darlingside throughout their acclaimed career, the evolution to Everything is Alive inspires listeners with a new degree of intimacy and nuance.

The recording of Everything is Alive continued in the pandemic-fueled music style of Fish Pond Fish, with band members creating separately to contribute to a sum greater than its parts. Three years later, things have changed in not only the world but also in the lives of Darlingside�s members; themes of grief, loss and hope permeate throughout the album. �First single �Eliza I See� recalls Paseltiner�s perception of the passage of time as he experiences it with his young child.� He chronicles the creation of �Eliza I See� as songs he made for her at the beginning of the pandemic saved as voice memos, and when rediscovering them a year later they took on a whole new meaning. He notes. �It deals with the joy, but also pain, that comes with change, and the excitement of gaining something new while necessarily losing something at the same time. This feeling is especially pronounced for me with my daughter because she changes so quickly.�

Everything is Alive was produced and recorded by the band and mixed by Tucker Martine (My Morning Jacket, Sufjan Stevens, Iron and Wine) in 2021.� And while each band member contributes songs individually, Everything is Alive is still a classic Darlingside effort, filled with vivid imagery and lyrical creativity. ��The album opens with the hopeful �Green Light� before moving into the many facets of loss on �Lose the Keys.� �All the Lights in the City� is a rumination of life�s big choices with one�s partner, �while �Darkening Hour� offers a solemn tone about moving in and out of darkness. The exquisite harmonies on �How Long Again� expose the sadness of America�s gun violence, and �Sea Dogs� meditates on death, if it is final or a rebirth to another form.

In addition, while the album features all four band members, the Everything is Alive tour has evolved into a new configuration. ��While a critical piece of the band and recording process, Senft will relinquish his road duties and Darlingside will tour with a new structure, featuring the album�s drummer Ben Burns, singer Molly Parden, and others.� Tour dates will be announced shortly.

Darlingside�s first release was 2015�s Birds Say, which announced the band�s arrival as an eclectic, intelligent and dynamic foursome. Media across the board praised the release, including American Songwriter, Paste, Rolling Stone Country, NPR Music, The New Yorker and The Huffington Post, who called it, �...one of the great albums released this year.� Extralife followed, building the band�s fanbase and continuing to earn raves. Fish Pond Fish was released in 2020 to additional critical praise and the band shared the album with a beautifully produced series of livestreams while touring ceased during the pandemic.�

No matter how drastically life may change, tomorrow wipes the slate clean and heralds a new beginning. All of the tumult dissolves into dawn, and everything starts over. SUSTO�chronicle seasons of transformation within their distinct, diverse, and dynamic breed of rock �n� roll enlivened in broad strokes of classic songwriting, storytelling and dalliances of sonic unpredictability. The band�led by frontman and songwriter Justin Osborne�explore change physically, emotionally, and spiritually on their fifth full-length LP, My Entire Life.

�It tells a story of one of the most intense transformations in my entire life,� says Justin. �It feels like closing one chapter and turning the page on the next. There are repercussions and ripples from change that will affect me forever. It�s essentially about my life and the pain and beauty in it."

Roach is Miya Folick's clearest and most direct work yet, eschewing some of the lyrical and musical obfuscations she layered onto her 2018 debut album, Premonitions. With ear-worm melodies, heart-wrenching poetry, eclectic production and anchored by Folick's once-in-a-lifetime voice, Roach straddles a line between pop and something more experimental. She enlisted a team of collaborators who she trusted to bring out the grittier side of her artistry, including Gabe Wax (War on Drugs, Fleet Foxes), Mike Malchicoff (King Princess, Bo Burnham), Max Hershenow (MS MR) and a team of some of LA's best players. The result is an album that sounds as honest and intimate as the subject matter at hand, a candid snapshot of where she is now and what it took to get there. Matte Jacket, Printed Sleeve, Gatefold Insert.

Los Angeles-based experimental jazz collective High Pulp will release their new album Days in the Desert in peak sweltering summer heat on July 28. The titular desert is both literal and metaphorical: it's the Mojave Desert that the band powers through on their many DIY tours around the country, and the band's founder / drummer Bobby Granfelt perceives the desert as "a spiritual quest" as well. Amid the trials of our present moment, you must look within, relying solely on your own instincts to keep moving forward. "You're in the desert and it's a long, lonesome process and a lot of times you have to check yourself to ask 'Is this right? Is this good? Is it too out?'" he says.High Pulp's Days in the Desert makes this vision come true, finding the West Coast band fully emerging into their own sound. Rooted in the jazz tradition while also smitten by indie-rock and electronic music, High Pulp was willing to grab from all these sounds at once to pursue something truly their own. Their third full-length album (following 2022's promising Anti- debut Pursuit of Ends), Days in the Desert reveals the band realizing their strengths, deepening their own bonds, and pushing all these skills into a thrilling new sonic vista all but unimaginable just a few years before.

Wide-spine two-pocket Gatefold jacket, 2x Printed innersleeves. 2x Heavy 180g vinyl (1x "Sunset Burst", 1x "Cadillac Blue"). Australian indie folk rock band The Paper Kites release their highly anticipated sixth album - At The Roadhouse. The song and production background began when the band created a roadhouse in rural Australia, performing an unannounced month-long residency in the small Victorian town of Campbells Creek, whilst working on their sixth record. The atmosphere of the live performance is recreated with pedal steel and crooning vocals and harmonies. The song lyrics reminisce of a romance still as alive as a blue flame. "We had talked about this for years" Sam Bentley explains, "We were drawn to the idea of holding up in a town somewhere and playing the evenings as a house band. The Roadhouse became this place for us." Expanding their line-up, the five members of The Paper Kites recruited three extra musicians to make up their roadhouse band, including multi-instrumentalist Matt Dixon - who's weeping pedal steel features on the track - as well as Hannah Cameron and Chris Panousakis.

Golden State, the second full-length from singer/songwriter Logan Ledger, marks a stylistic departure from the timeless country noir of Ledger�s critically lauded debut. This time around, Ledger worked with producer Shooter Jennings, dreaming up a lush and spirited sound partly inspired by the California country-rock scene of the late-�60s and early-�70s. The result is a sublime setting for Ledger�s layered meditations on loss and despair and the search for transcendence.

Hitchock and Herrmann, Spielberg and Williams, Zemeckis and Silvestri, Burton and Elfman, Fellini and Rota. There�s a certain kind of magic that happens when a director and composer work together for an extended period; their imaginations are fuelled by an artistic sensibility which becomes, inevitably, entwined. Such deep understanding between two artists has proffered memorable, even legendary, cinemusical experiences. But there�s another of these partnerships we must honour and mention in the same breath, that of director Hayao Miyazaki and composer Joe Hisaishi.
