 Great to hear Allison – first thing this morning on the radio – thanks Mary Brace and Lightning 100 for that. Here we go… 

Vulture Kult have recently released their second album which is called, Don’t Let Rock n’ Roll Ruin Your Life. Vultures from Above is a real treat, a neo-classical sounding hard rock track with strong vocals and real, live screaming guitars.  Vulture Kult, as I mentioned the last time I wrote about them, have a Psychedelic groove to their music that I like a whole lot.

Stream the album here, purchase it here.

Buddy Miller is a significant force in the Americana movement.  A singer, songwriter, producer and collaborator.  Here we have a track from his 1995 HighTone Records debut, Love and Other Lies.  That’s How I Got to Memphis is a cover of a song Tom T. Hall wrote for Bobby Bare, Sr.


 
Earlier this year, Rodney Crowell put out an album called KIN: Songs by Mary Karr and Rodney Crowell. Mary Karr is a poet, essayist and memoirist. Karr wrote the lyrics for the songs on the album and Crowell put the lyrics to music.  An All-Star that includes Norah Jones, Emmylou Harris, Rosanne Cash, Vince Gill and Lucinda Williams, performs the songs.  I’m a Mess is done by Crowell himself. 
Seattle-based Hip-Hop duo, THEESatisfaction have put out an EP length mixtape called THEESatisfaction Loves Anita Baker.  Today, we have the track, Black Fact.  Check it out:
Here’s another THEESatisfaction track
Here’s Anita Baker herself….

Thursday Morning Music Shuffle – Day Late, Many Dollars Short

Yes, Yes I know it’s Friday – Believe me I know, but I listened to a pretty cool shuffle yesterday and then had to hit the road and then some life stuff, and I really didn’t want to skip posting – so the Friday Shuffle is coming soon – it’s a good one, too, by the way.

 The Thursday Shuffle starts off with a sonic blast from the boys from Florida who call themselves Grounded. Roman Candle is off their latest release Sinlong Plethora.

Grab Sinlong Plethora HERE

Couldn’t find a video of the song, so here is a video of 91 Roman Candles going off at the same time (don’t try this at home – though I know some of you will, but if you do you didn’t get the idea from me – so there)




Next up is the Memphis band Lucero with Sometimes from their album Women and Work which was released in March of this year.

Next we have a song from an EP we streamed for you last week. West Coast band Jemez Mountain Hawkz is a new band made up of veterans of several great Indie bands including The Shins. Listening to their debut, I feel instantly in love with the carefree desert grooves and sweet West Coast melodic sound.  Today we feature the song, CA-2 from the Hey-Mez EP.

Sex and Gasoline is the title track from the 2008 album by the great Rodney Crowell.  After seeing his incredible performance at The Station Inn during the Americana Fest, I’ve been seeking out anything by him that I can find.  I found this, and it’s – as per expectations – a great song.
