SUMMARY:My Morning Jacket
DESCRIPTION:My Morning Jacket’s 10th studio album and first full-length collection in more than three years arrived via ATO Records on Friday\, March 21. Produced by three-time GRAMMY Award winner Brendan O’Brien (Bruce Springsteen\, Pearl Jam)\, the album is heralded by the ravishing lead single “Time Waited\,” available everywhere now. An official music video\, directed by famed photographer and filmmaker Danny Clinch and featuring new performance footage interspersed with archival photos spanning the band’s history\, is now streaming on YouTube. \nFor more than 25 years\, My Morning Jacket has achieved an incredibly rare feat in the world of rock ‘n’ roll\, upholding a long-established cultural legacy while sustaining all the curiosity and creative hunger of their very earliest days. In a monumental step for the Louisville\, Kentucky-bred five-piece\, vocalist and guitarist Jim James\, bassist Tom Blankenship\, guitarist Carl Broemel\, drummer Patrick Hallahan\, and keyboardist Bo Koster once again expand the limits of their sound and elevate their artistry to unprecedented heights. The result is perhaps the most masterfully realized work yet from a band fully committed to their belief in music as a conduit for revelation of all kinds. \n“I like how the word ‘is’ indicates a sense of presence in the now. There’s no logic or rationale behind this record; it just is\,” says James. “All these songs came into existence out of an attempt to connect with something beyond the human experiment\, which for me is the whole purpose of music\, that connection with something larger than us\, yet something we are all equally a part of.” \nIs arrives as My Morning Jacket celebrates the 20th anniversary of their 2005 landmark Z\, a lavishly acclaimed collection named by Rolling Stone among “The 500 Greatest Albums of All Time\,” and represents another milestone in the band’s ever-evolving body of work\, as well as an opportunity to breathe new energy into their historically stunning and hard-driving live performances. James points to the “undeniable force of loving” as the most essential factor in the band’s longevity and unending enchantment with the process of musical creation. \nmymorningjacket.com \nFacebook | Instagram | TikTok | YouTube

SUMMARY:Karina Rykman
DESCRIPTION:Karina Rykman plays bass\, sings\, jumps around\, and laughs a lot. In doing so\, she has garnered rare attention and an avid listenership. Straddling the worlds of jam rock and indie pop drenched in psychedelia\, Karina’s effervescent presence comes to life in musical form. \nBorn and raised in New York City\, Karina Rykman’s musical path began in her early teens\, playing in bands whenever she could while attending a veritable ton of live music as a fan. By the end of her senior year at NYU\, Rykman’s virtuoso talent and infectious spirit led to an invitation to join pianist Marco Benevento’s band\, as recommended by Ween bassist Dave Dreiwitz. With Benevento\, she has performed countless shows\, including dates with Vulfpeck\, Dispatch\, The Claypool Lennon Delirium\, and many more. \nRykman soon formed her own namesake band\, accompanied by Adam November on guitar\, loopers\, and effects\, and Chris Corsico on drums. She quickly earned a reputation as an unmissable live act\, a bombastic exposition that floats freely between dreamy indie pop and thick\, distorted rock\, with fun as its guiding light. Tearing through sold out headline performances\, show stealing festival sets including Bonnaroo\, Peach Music Festival\, and Sweetwater 420 Fest\, opening for Khruangbin\, My Morning Jacket\, and Tedeschi Trucks Band\, and appearing in the house band on NBC’s Late Night with Seth Meyers\, Karina stays busy. \nRykman released her debut album\, JOYRIDE\, via AWAL in August 2023. Written and recorded with childhood friend and producer Gabe Monro\, the album serves as a vivid canvas for Rykman’s vibrant expression and chameleonic songcraft. JOYRIDE features Trey Anastasio as co-producer and featured musician\, contributing guitar on five of the album’s nine tracks. \nHer concerts are often packed with fans who feel more like friends\, a testament to her undeniable charisma and her embrace of the live music community\, and that circle continues to expand at an impressive pace. \nkarinarykman.com \nFacebook | Instagram | YouTube

SUMMARY:Amigo The Devil
DESCRIPTION:In the vast realm of modern folk and alternative rock\, Amigo The Devil is an artist who channels a voice of unsettling beauty and raw truth. Splicing alarming honesty with personal realizations\, his narratives carry weight\, wisdom\, and wit. With a brilliant mind\, full soul\, and a penchant for the obscure\, Amigo the Devil’s songwriting harkens back to a more brutal state of songwriting\, influenced by the honesty of Leonard Cohen\, the creativity of Tom Waits\, and the ruthlessness of Chavela Vargas. Rather than imitating\, he identifies with their authentic disregard for consequences in songwriting and releasing music. Amigo the Devil is not polished or clean; he is all heart\, with reckless abandon\, choosing to embrace one’s flaws instead of trying to change them. \nThe son of a Greek father and Spanish mother\, Amigo the Devil\, otherwise known as Danny Kiranos\, is a first-generation American from South Florida. He came of age in downtown Miami during the mid 1980s and spent significant portions of his earlier career embracing an almost nomadic lifestyle\, absorbing tales from the underworld and penning songs about other wandering or lost souls. These stories found their way into his lyrics and gained a steady fellowship of fans along the way. His first full-length album\, Volume 1\, gave birth to ballads including “Hell and You\,” “I Hope Your Husband Dies\,” and “One Kind of People\,” followed by 2018’s Everything is Fine\, which brought forth songs like “Hungover in Jonestown” and “Cocaine and Abel.” \nThis evolution came fully into focus with Born Against (2021)\, released under his independent label Liars Club Records\, which garnered critical acclaim from Rolling Stone\, Consequence\, No Depression\, and American Songwriter\, which described Amigo the Devil as “an artist who gives full reign to intrigue and intellect in equal measure.” The next chapter continued with the February 2024 release of Yours Until the War is Over\, a songwriter’s record that proves this whole Amigo the Devil thing is not some true crime niche. Similar to Waits and Cohen\, Amigo the Devil embodies the truest form of an artist\, letting the music speak for itself while reminding listeners of storytelling’s power and music’s role in narrating human emotion. \namigothedevil.com \nFacebook | Instagram | YouTube

SUMMARY:Joywave
DESCRIPTION:Joywave is at an exciting point in their career. Not only have the act survived the pressures of their major label debut and the dreaded sophomore slump\, but they have also established themselves as the kind of band that you are as likely to hear at a hip record store as you are at the grocery store. That said\, there is a difference between ubiquity and evolution\, and with their fifth full length\, Permanent Pleasure\, Joywave\, vocalist and multi-instrumentalist Daniel Armbruster\, guitarist Joseph Morinelli\, and drummer Paul Brenner\, lean into guitar and string sections without sacrificing the signature sound that has endeared the band to countless fans\, whether they know it or not\, over the past eleven years. \nThe trio’s hometown\, Rochester\, New York\, is integral not only to the theme of Permanent Pleasure\, with audio samples from the 1984 historical compilation release The Rochester Sesquicentennial bookending the album\, but also to Joywave’s overall identity. Despite international acclaim and major-label success\, the band maintains a DIY work ethic that keeps them grounded in the present while always reaching toward the future. “We go to our studio and make a record with total creative freedom\, and we turn it in\, and the label tells us we did a great job\,” Armbruster explains. This arrangement is a rarity in the music industry these days\, but like all things Joywave\, it works in a way that makes perfect sense for them. \nOnce again produced by Armbruster at the band’s own Rochester-based studio\, The Joycave\, Permanent Pleasure is an unfiltered vision of the band’s creativity\, seeing them stepping out of their sonic comfort zone. “I think this is probably our least keyboard-heavy record\,” Armbruster explains\, adding that in some ways Permanent Pleasure was a reaction to the more cohesive and linear construction of 2022’s Cleanse. “On Permanent Pleasure\, we blew everything apart again. We are switching out drum components and everything we can between songs and freeing ourselves again from the box of ‘it has to be super cohesive’ because I always want to rage against what we did last time. But five records in\, we are a lot better at writing and recording\, so it is bringing back a little bit of the all-over vibe of the first record\, but on the other side of the experience. We have gone through a wormhole.” \nThat feeling of artistic liberation is the album’s unifying sonic characteristic\, from the futuristic downtempo groove of “Sleepytime Fantasy” to the hypnotic dancefloor vibe of “Brain Damage.” Permanent Pleasure also sees the band expanding their musical conventions\, most notably by enlisting an actual orchestra to play on these songs rather than relying solely on software\, as they have in the past. “We have always done virtual instruments before\, but we wanted to have it real this time around\, so we had the Rochester Philharmonic Orchestra play on five of these songs\,” Morinelli\, who wrote out the sheet music\, explains. That amalgamation of electronic and organic instrumentation is evident on songs like “He’s Back\,” which is political\, personal\, petrifying\, and playful\, seemingly all at once. \nHowever\, as much as Joywave is pushing toward the future with this album\, there is also an element of nostalgia present as the trio looks back at what they have built since they began playing together\, as heard on shimmering pop songs like “Swimming In The Glow.” “That song harkens back to an era of Joywave before we were in the beam and before anyone really cared what we did. It really draws lyrically on that time in my life of feeling like me\, Paul\, and Joey had everything all together\,” Armbruster explains. “Sonically\, I think that song is a side of the band that people who have heard our 2012 EP Koda Vista know is there. It is a side of the band that people who saw us in our very early days at local clubs like Bug Jar know is there\, but it is something that deserves to be in the spotlight.” \n“I want to touch you\, but I’m scared\,” Armbruster sings on the infectious single “Scared\,” an ode to codependency that is as much about connection as it is existential dread. Ultimately\, that dichotomy between humor and hopelessness lies at the core of Permanent Pleasure. “I think the job of an artist is to explore every side of being a person\, and self-awareness is a huge part of being a person\,” Armbruster summarizes. “I think artists who ignore humor are not being true to themselves\, and it is a huge part of who we are\, despite having thoughts on the record that are on the darker side of things. You have to wink a little bit to make it okay. You have to make a joke about the asteroid as the asteroid is about to hit.” \njoywavemusic.com \nFaceboook | Instagram | YouTube | TikTok

SUMMARY:Modest Mouse
DESCRIPTION:Having recently completed another successful run with Pixies and Cat Power\, Modest Mouse continues to prove themselves as one of the most consistent live acts today. Modest Mouse released their highly anticipated album The Golden Casket on June 25\, 2021\, via Epic Records. The Golden Casket heralds another new chapter in the GRAMMY Award-nominated\, multi-platinum band’s unpredictable evolution. \nProduced with Dave Sardy and Jacknife Lee in Los Angeles and in Modest Mouse’s studio in Portland\, the album hovers in the liminal space between raw punk power and experimental studio science. Frontman Isaac Brock explores themes ranging from the degradation of our psychic landscapes and invisible technology to fatherhood. The twelve tracks behave like amorphous organisms\, undergoing dramatic mutations and mood swings that reflect the chronic tug of war between hope and despair that plays out in Brock’s head. \nmodestmouse.com \nFacebook | Instagram | YouTube
