With his exuberant soul stylings, his upbeat dance rhythms, and his velvety vocals, Leon Bridges dispenses a heart-nourishing dose of joyous soul on his appropriately titled new album Happiness Anytime.

THE READING ROOM: Jamie Fisher’s ‘Nobody Broke Your Heart: An Intimate Biography of Elliott Smith’ (opens the original)
Read excerpt
It’s fitting that Jamie Fisher’s Nobody Broke Your Heart: An Intimate Biography of Elliott Smith opens with an epigraph from the Danish philosopher Kierkegaard: “The individual has manifold shadows, all of which resemble him and from time to time have an equal claim to be the man himself.” This quote captures the life of a musician who remained as much in the shadows as in the light and sets the tone for this intimate and candid new biography of Smith.

Read excerpt
On his new album Once Upon a Second Time Around, multi-instrumentalist, songwriter, and singer Charlie Worsham welcomes us to step onto his front porch, to sit a spell, tap our toes, clap our hands, and dance around. Swerving from rollicking bluegrass jams to quiet folk ballads, these 12 songs capture the challenges, the hopes, and the intimacy of relationships. Driving snare shots kick off the album opener “Powers That Be,” a funky Southern rocker, driven by Worsham’s searing lead guitar runs,
