The songs on Spicer s new album, Wow and Flutter, capture the vastness of those horizons with a cinematic quality, somehow sweeping us into the panorama as we listen. It should surprise no one that she pursued a career in film before music became her muse. The dichotomy of shadow and light, grit and wonder, are in the sonics, rather than on the screen.

grrr is the 1965 album by Hugh Masekela. Originally released on Mercury, this is from a CD released by the Verve Music Group on 9 September, 2003.

This record is the product of a strange and interesting time. When I started writing Gathering, I felt tired of living in the shadow of my earlier self, my earlier work, but more than discouraged, I felt charged with the possibility and the freedom of cutting myself loose from my own and others expectations.

Daemonia Nymphe’s new album “Macbeth” commissioned by the National Theatre of Northern Greece will be out in the end of next month.

Out Of Stillness is a 2000 CD by Gopal Shankar Misra, whose instrument is the vichitra veena, which is played without frets. He is joined by Ramkumar Mishra on tabla and Padmaja Misra on tanpura.

With Long Black Veil, the Chieftains attempted a mainstream pop crossover by recording with rock and pop stars from the Rolling Stones and Sting to Van Morrison and Sinéad O'Connor. Instead of changing their sound to accommodate the talents of their guests, the band plays it straight. As always, their performance is superb; what is surprising is how well the pop stars sing Celtic material. None of the guest singers sound displaced or uncomfortable, which is largely due to the sympathetic performances of the Chieftains.

Renowned, “Bayou Soul” singer-songwriter, Marc Broussard announces his new studio album, Easy To Love, to be released on September 15th. Broussard says, “We’ve all got friends we don’t talk to anymore, for one reason or another. Sometimes, the reason may be completely justifiable. Sometimes we just grow apart naturally. Whatever the case may be, I think most people can relate to that feeling of wishing you could hear from someone you once cherished as a close confidant, hoping they wouldn’t hesitate to call if they really needed you.”

Award-winning songwriter Keppie Coutts presents ‘The Mysteries of Mad River: A Swamp-Folk Operetta’, an eccentric, Freudian, and sparkling piece of musical theatre, that is one-part cabaret, one-part murder mystery. ‘The Mysteries of Mad River’ is strung around the character of a lovable (but deranged) primary school teacher, singing her way through a town cursed with disappearing children.

Austin’s Andy Baxter and Kyle Jahnke have remained mostly underground for about half a decade, releasing three projects independently with producer Chris Jacobie. But catching the attention of the Civil Wars’ John Paul White and Alabama Shakes’ Ben Tanner led to a successful 2016 marked by the release of breakthrough Let a Lover Drown You (produced with White and Tanner) and tour spots with the likes of Drew Holcomb and the Neighbors.

On Tangerine Moon Wishes, Sandra Nkaké narrates day-to-day life in an imaginary world. With a sound that mixes jazz, soul and folk-influenced pop with unparalleled inventiveness, the album's thirteen tracks describe living on the sand at the edge of a forest where the river flows into the sea. Times change, moods vary, characters transform themselves and everyone has an appointment with the Moon. They say it turns red just before it disappears, and we can all make a wish. Recorded live and produced by Ji Dru, this poetic and upbeat record is like a musical antidote to the trials and tribulations of today's world.

Few guitarists, even ones leaning toward the eccentric, would dream of pasting together a 19-minute instrumental out of various improvisations. But John Fahey is on his own planet, and he assured that fingerstyle guitar would never be the same when he issued The Great San Bernardino Birthday Party on his own Takoma label in 1966. The album features Fahey's more experimental explorations on the guitar between 1962 and 1966, ranging from solo guitar on "Guitar Excursions Into the Unknown" to the eerie organ accompaniment on "Will the Circle Be Unbroken."
