Mandolin Orange changed their name to Watchhouse last year. It harkens back to a cabin on the Chesapeake Bay that Andrew Marlin visited with family as a kid. I can’t think of a history that better encapsulate’s the band’s sound.
Daily Dose: Romare, “…A Hold”
Sometimes, the right electronic music catches my attention. This one dropped me into gear.
Daily Dose: Madison Cunningham, “…Life According to Raechel”
Digging songs with musical theatre vibes more and more these days. Maybe it’s a sign of imminent Fall.
Daily Dose: Ondara, “…A Prophet of Doom”
Art is always a sign of the times. Democracy on the line.
Daily Dose: Bakar, “Hell N Back”
Here for this modern romance.
Daily Dose: Broken Bells, “Saturdays”
Broken Bells coming in hot with big time Beatles / Mamas & Papas vibes for the first time since 2019.
Daily Dose: Beirut, “Two Blue Eyes (BER-ABQ Version)”
Some songs just feel like warm Friday evenings at 5:45pm.
Daily Dose: Seratones, “Power”
Seratones really deserves an in-depth post I just don’t have the bandwidth for right now but who knows, maybe, someday. Highly recommend listening to on road trips.
Daily Dose: Early James + Sierra Ferrell, “Real Low Down Lonesome”
Just so damn good.
Daily Dose: Danielle Ponder, “Some Of Us Are Brave”
See me now. I’ll show you how.
