Draped Apes is a new art-garage-rock group out of Nashville. Led by multi-instrumentalist Timoscles, the group revolves around a steady core of longtime collaborators, which expands and contracts according to each song’s needs. This wide-ranging effort celebrates the futility of life. Inherently contrasting and blending polish and grime in equal measure, their songs are built […]

Continuing our tribute to bands that like to jam out in the snow this week, for today’s Tuesday’s Gone, we’ve dug up this pretty rad performance of Wilco live at the Marble Mountain Ski Resort in Newfoundland from 1997.

Singer-songwriter Tommy Womack is at heart a rock ‘n roller. Accordingly, it makes sense that he teams with Eric “Roscoe” Ambel for his latest release, his ninth, Live a Little. Ambel collaborations have worked for Steve Earle, Jerry Joseph, Sarah Borges, Freedy Johnston, and more. Combine Ambel’s rocking edge with Womack’s tunes, which run from […]

Longtime favorites like Stereolab and James McMurtry delivered some of their strongest work in decades, while scenes closer to home were well represented, with moe. […]

Flowers in the Afternoon: Late-1960s Sunshine arrives as the third entry in Craft Recording’s psych/garage RSD trilogy. Where Poppies leaned into fuzzed-out oddities and Double Whammy played in Nuggets-style garage grit, this new installment zeroes in on that brief cultural moment when harmony, melody, and AM-radio optimism collided. Framed around producer and archivist Alec Palao’s […]

Creed’s rise at the turn of the millennium was fast, loud, and massive, and Live in San Antonio captures the band right in the middle of that unavoidable ascent.
