As soon as I hear the word ‘pop’ in the description of a bands sound I’m out. I just can’t do it.

This autumn has been an exciting one w/ this trio, all of which recontextualize traditional sounds & instrumentation and present them through different lenses. I'm speaking of Michael Hix's Wonderful Aspiration of the Source, Jon Camp's 'Proceed,' and The Far Sound's 'To Heart, To Earth'.

Torn & Frayed announce a collection of demos and unreleased tracks from songwriter Hal Paris (Country Funk). There’s a loneliness to the tracks here, still awash in the subtle country touches that made the band great, but more aligned with private press troubadours like FJ McMahon. bit.ly/3Wklb2l

Simmering psychedelic steel. Heck yeah

Raven Sings The Blues @ravensingstheblues.bsky.social · 20d

The Far Sound turns pedal steel away from country expectations for an LP that explores the simmer of psychedelics. The steel can’t help but pull its compass towards Western woes, but Pedrosa fills his landscapes with tangles of Rag, Turkish psych, & nods to Morricone & Seastones. bit.ly/3KfMpEI

GLYDERS FOREVER ✌🏼

Raven Sings The Blues @ravensingstheblues.bsky.social · Sep 10

Glyders pick up right where Maria’s Hunt left off, shaking the shag out of the bag with driving rhythms and a psych-soaked vision of garage blues. “Stone Shadow” stomps into the room, already 50 feet tall and trembling, a hungry howler that’s ready to devour the listener. bit.ly/4nK5rl9

Spiritual Pajamas cues up a lost gem, digging out the tapes of the unreleased Grass album, a 2006 psych-folk LP recorded by memberss of Espers, Vetiver, Feathers, The Valerie Project & Brightblack Morning Light & packed away for 20yrs. Hear the fried tones of “Summer in the Wasteland" bit.ly/3IbsF4k

Finding the leylines between Sean Thompson’s county ramble, Spencer Cullum’s folk intimacy & the more experimental ends of Rich Ruth’s exploratory jazz, Shrunken Elvis is a dream swept up in cosmic tones & German progressive patter. It harnesses the edges of outre, a 2025 essential! bit.ly/4mR2ijk
