Sylvia, single by TORRES and Baker. Defiant. Outlaw. Earworm. This duo infuses country-style soft rock with messages of radical empathy and second and third chances in an addictive sound. Love the twangy guitars. Stream on Spotify and major platforms.
This Cat’s in the Doghouse, single by Patricia Vonne. The queen of Austin roots rock with a south-of-the-border flavor brings out another banger. The only thing missing from this song is her trademark castanets (check out her 2005 album Guitars and Castanets). Its blues rock that grabs your gut, its country rock that tells a story. Its everything you want to listen to. Stream on Spotify and major platforms.
Baby Blue, single by Willow Avalon. From the Southern Belle Raising Hell album. Willow brings a country style to a beautiful song she wrote together with Tofer Brown. It sounds like down to earth country but the production is so sophisticated that it is both a two-stepper and a carry you away song. Love it. Stream on major platforms.
Woke Up and Smelled the Coffee, single by Tommy Castro and the Painkillers. Just solid high powered rocking roots music with blues and R&B thrown in. If you like Elvin Bishop, Eric Clapton, or Mike Bloomfield you will love Tommy Castro (and he is great fun live!) Stream on major platforms
Goliath, single by Jesse Reyez. I love Jesse Reyez’s voice. Born in Canada of Columbian parents, she effortlessly blends the two cultures in her music. She burst onto the music scene in 2016 with her acclaimed debut single “Figures,” Since then, she has released a string of hits and has collaborated with likes of Eminem, Calvin Harris, and Beyoncé. This song showcases her voice full of love, urgency, power and softness, Truly amazing. Stream on all major platforms.
Estrella Fugaz, single by Delilah. A fast rising Mexican songstress has made a name for herself in the corridos tumbados subgenre (a fusion style also known as trap corridos). She was the first female singer to join Natanael Cano’s record label, Los CT, and released her debut single “Amor Perdido” under the label earlier this year. This song is sweet and hypnotic, embodying the Mexican regional sound but bringing modern elements in that make it stand out. Spanish. Stream on Spotify.
