The Sugar Daddys
#notsorry (self)

Here's the plan, Stan: Everybody cruise their rods to the maltshop after making the family dinner table-scene. The Sugar Daddys are throwin' out the beat at the union hall, later. Straight from the fridge. Then we'll head out to the country mile and drag for pinks. Dig?

Recommended: "Goodbye To You," "Don't Really Matter," "Bring On the Pain," "#notsorry," "Let's Drink Together."

Atomic Megalodon
Trust No One
(self)

Demolition chording, growled expostulations, and doomsday poundings in moments surrender to understated lures, only to again crash down. Admirable constructive mindfulness.

Recommended: "I Want To Believe," "Devil's Triangle," "Lone Gunmen," "Smoking Man," "Victor Tooms."

Phantom Pomps
The Higher the Hair, the Closer to God
(self)

"Breakneck  thrill-seekers may go for zis," sputtered Prof. Gustav Klemperer, of the venerated Heidelberg Institute. "But bevare! I vud caution strongly against allowing zis 'music' to infect ze general populace! In all my years under the tutelage of European psychiatry's finest minds, I haf nevah encountered such lunatic celebration. I fear innocent souls vill be lured from sanity by ze seductive rock'n'roll, and be reduced to mindlessly undulating participants in unspeakable pleasures, crashing through doors man vas never meant to open!" 

Recommended: "Runaway Truck Ramp," "Psychobilly Attack," "I Forgot My Meds," "No More Hot Dogs." "Is You Is?"

Will Payne Harrison
[featuring the Freetown Flyers]
Living With Ghosts
(self)

Harmonica and accordion ambled over to throw in with guitars, piano, and drums. A subtle, Nashville/Louisiana singer drawled insightful, pacific compositions that denuded humanity. Plain folk genres like bluegrass, country, and blues again illustrated they had much in common. 

Recommended: "Jacqueline," "I'm Over Thinking About You," "High/Low," "Anne Marie,"  "Walk On," "Funeral Home," "Red River Blues," "Living With Ghosts."

Bob Woods
Western Swing Train
(self)

A thousand and one nights plugged in before honky tonk crowds gave Bob an ear for what fits in western swing: Simple narratives articulated in a nice guy-voice, and a guitar of pearl-shaped tones so sublime as to soothe away all cares. 

Recommended: "Tiny Moore," "Swing Train," "I've Got A New Road Under My Wheels," "Desert Flower," "I Love the Nightlife."
