Eleven76: A Day of Unrest
More soundtracks to movies that don't exist, except in the mind of the listener. This UK duo exhumes the sounds of 60's Bond, 70's Italian library, and maybe even a little 80's sci-fi to create new cinematic […]

Federico Casagrande: Gentle Riders
If they were going to make a modern day spaghetti Western in 2026, the newest project from the Paris-based, Italian jazz guitarist could provide the soundtrack. It's Morricone meets Frisell - the […]

Sam and Louise Sullivan: Love & Devotion
The songs on this album are the kinds of earworms would've sat around waiting to record off the radio top 40 countdown so could listen to em on repeat. I guess we would've considered them pop […]

Beans: Less Louder
If you are unfamiliar with the first couple of records from Beans, they're some serious ripsnorters, impressive turn-it-up rocking out from this up-and-coming Melbourne band. Their newest, as the name implies, is a […]

Kelly Hunt: Requiem For A Sleepless Night
Hunt's third record has a timeless feel. These are songs that could've been sung around a campfire 40 years ago, 20 years ago, or 20 years in the future. It's a simple folk tradition that's […]

Danalogue: Teleportations
The former founding member of the very-missed Comet is Coming is out with his own future-facing debut full length and it's a doozy. Synthesizer and electronics leave terra firma with an intergalactic fusion […]

Nicole McCabe & Savannah Harris: All Together Now
On paper, this is all very simple: a saxophone + drum duo, potentially cool, sure, but likely nothing groundbreaking. But put this one on the HiFi, throw on a nice pair of headphones […]

Jon Madof Trio: Netzach
Years ago, Madof led a power trip called Rashanim, and if you ever run across a fellow fan they're certain to give you one of those "if you know you know" looks, a secret handshake for great under-radar music […]

Jon Mckiel: Gold Horatio
This is one of those listens where you're continually asking "is this the same album?" McKiel does so much on this record and he does all of it very very well. Clever little guitar melodies you wish went on […]

Two Runner: Porchlight
How about some folk music from off-radar N. California? This duo does many of the things you love to see in your roots music: a balance of fragile and hearty, songwriting that doesn't forget the small everyday […]

Ben Goldberg & Kenny Wollesen: Dog Hypnotic
On his birthday last month, clarinet extraordinaire Ben Goldberg released 8 albums, seemingly clearing out a backlog of studio hangs with a variety of collaborators. This promiscuity […]

John Hollenbeck & Hot Club Jazz Orchestra: Peace and Justice
Hollenbeck is one of those hypercreatives that seemingly has as many projects going as days in the week. Even more fascinating is how different each one is from the rest […]

Oliver Wood, Matt Glassmeyer, Ted Pecchio & Mark Raudabaugh: Slow Accordion
One of the great things about the modern day is the incredibly lower barrier of entry to properly capturing, processing and releasing music into the world […]

Leah Senior: Pt. Roadknight
We're used to lyrical poetry from our favorite singer-songwriters, and these songs from the Melbourne folkster certainly are full of lovely imagery and wordsmithing. What elevates her newest release is the […]

Møster!: Bolts
If you're going to put an exclamation point in your band name, you've better have earned it! These guys have earned it with an album chock full of whoa! and holyshit! moments. This is a Norwegian supergroup of sorts […]

Tennger: Sky
There's zoning out and then there's whatever inner voyage that Tennger will take you on. The Korean husband/wife (and son!) are back with their latest and it'll definitely take you there. Their synth-laden explorations […]

Bobby Hawk: Doppelhäwker
The NYC-based violin player has an impressive resume, adding strings to music by Taylor Swift, Bleachers, Sabrina Carpenter among others. He's also an adept improviser, running in circles with some of the […]

Suzanne Vallie: Moonshiner Springs
Some great singer-songwriters compare to milk chocolate with a smooth, finished sweetness; others more like a dark chocolate, with a complex flavor profile that hits different parts of the mouth at […]

Sean Wolcott: Lady Swordfighter: Disciple of Dishonor
I looked back and don't believe I've done a Wolcott record which is surprising because there are a ton of em and they all kind of rule. This one is the third installment in his […]
