Looking Up From “The World From My Bed” with Winchester 7 & The Runners (opens the original)
Read excerpt
There is something wonderfully strange about "The World From My Bed". On the surface, Winchester 7 & The Runners have created a song about the modern habit of staying in bed with a phone, a book and the entire world seemingly available through a screen. Yet beneath its laid-back premise sits a much bigger question: what happens when having access to more information than ever before doesn't necessarily mean understanding the world around us? The song began with a conversation about how young peo
Rediscovering Blind Boone – The Extraordinary Story Behind Kansas City’s Most Ambitious Musical (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Some albums arrive with a story attached to them. Others are almost entirely story. Blind Boone: The Musical sits somewhere between the two, taking the remarkable life of John William “Blind” Boone and transforming it into an ambitious song cycle that reaches across ragtime, blues, jazz, funk, rock and musical theatre. Its as much about resurrecting a forgotten musical legacy as it is in telling a compelling story. John William Boone was born in 1864 in a Union Army camp near Miami, Missouri, th
Scribe’s “Five Alive” – Finding Freedom on the Other Side (opens the original)
Read excerpt
There is something wonderfully unfashionable about a great power trio. No layers of studio excess to hide behind, no sprawling cast of musicians to dilute the chemistry.

Their music brings together the muscularity of progressive rock, the immediacy of indie and an eclectic musical vocabulary that stretches from Rush and The Police t
The Free States Leaves Plenty of Room for Discovery on”Love & Death” (opens the original)
Read excerpt
There is something rather appealing about an album that doesn't seem overly concerned with behaving itself, and Love & Death, the latest record from The Free States, is certainly not short on musical curiosity. Shaun Lyons has created a record that moves comfortably between rock, soul, alternative songwriting and more experimental territory, occasionally throwing an unusual rhythm or unexpected arrangement into the mix just to see what happens, and remarkably, it all makes considerably more sens
SulkyMan Releases “The Things I Said” – When the Past Still Has Something to Say (opens the original)
Read excerpt
There is something particularly compelling about music that refuses to stay in its own time. A recording can sit untouched for years, perhaps decades, and when it finally emerges there is always the question of whether it will sound like a relic or whether, somehow, it will still have something to say. With SulkyMan’s The Things I Said, the answer is very much the latter.
