About the new single, lead singer Erik Martensson shared this:"When I wrote this song I had the phrase 'still my hero' on my original scrap demo. The only hero I've ever had was my dad, so I made the whole song about him. He sadly passed away much too young in 2014. This is a tribute to a great man". (continue)

Today, the band are pleased to launch a live video for the track 'Love Is The Light', taken from their most recent studio album 'The Likes Of Us'. Bassist Gregory Spawton comments: "Before last year's tour we had already recorded Love Is The Light in the studio and were confident that it would translate well to live performance. What we underestimated was just how well it would come across at our shows, despite being a song that no one had previously heard before the tour." (continue)
Dave Edmunds announced Swan Songs: The Singles 1976-1981, a 39-track collection to be released on September 27 through Omnivore Recordings. After hitting the charts in 1968, Dave Edmunds began a spectacular career as a writer, performer, and producer. Signing with Swan Song Records, all of the pieces of the puzzle would fit into place. Beginning with "Here Comes The Weekend" (co-written with Nick Lowe), Dave began a stellar run on the charts, showcasing his propensity for, and ability to bring a classic sound back to the airwaves, and to remember where all of those sounds came from.
Swan Songs: The Singles 1976-1981 reveals the magic of the 7″ singe in a way that has yet to be explored. 39 tracks, covering every A- and B-side from that period, guide the listener through that pivotal time when listeners heard what they liked and liked what they heard. Funny thing is, if you missed them the first time, you heard them later. (continue)

Fred Hostetler recently released his new single "Reckless Independence" and to celebrate we asked him to tell us about the track. Here is the story: My follow-up to the 2024 album 'Rain Walking' is a romping good-natured autobiographical song in which I relate the condition that fostered a life-long musical sojourn and share only 0.5% of the experiences along the way. From my hometown of Goshen, Indiana to the ocean and the San Juan Islands of the Pacific Northwest, it is a 3 minute tongue-in-cheek synopsis of a musician's life. The Muse (the white fem figure in the video) oversees the journey from beginning to end.
The mid-tempo song itself has slide guitar and a bluesy bravado that reminds me of blues legend John Lee Hooker's great lyric from Boogie Chillun: I heard papa tell mama / Let that boy boogie-woogie / It's in him, and it gots to come out (continue)
