On this week’s roundup . . .

Happy Monday.

Tyler Childers – Purgatory

You can now purchase one of the best records of the year right here.

This is down-home, front porch, stomp-n-holler music of the highest order.

This is the Kit – Hotter Colder

Here’s a spooky, hypnotic little earworm, brought to you by Kate Stables.

Her newest album, Moonshine Freeze, is out now.

The Americans – The Right Stuff

Let’s do some catchy, driving rock from Los Angeles.

This song sounds a bit like the Walkmen covering Bruce Springsteen.  And we should all agree that’s a very good thing.

Small Leaks Sink Ships – Dancing Devil

This is weird and jittery and trippy and great.

Rock City – I Think It’s Time to Say Goodbye

Looking Forward: the Roots of Big Star is 18 tracks of rollicking, rock goodness that you need in your life.

Until next week, cheers.
