Francesca Brown has just released 'Hashslingin' Blues' a gorgeous and classic sounding country song, with a fresh modern production and beyond the refined vocals, a splash of pedal steel guitar seals the deal. === We have the Radio edit for Torgeir Waldemar latest song entitled 'Heart and Gold', it's been a while since we last featured him, that said his brand of rock remains bright and pleasing. === The Rebels Of Tijuana do Garage Rock French style on the new E.P. 'La Dominicaine' and they do it very, very well with plenty of swagger and a whole load of hooks. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Francesca Brown - Hashslingin' Blues.

Millport delivers a stirring though perhaps unexpected reinterpretation of the classic Laurel Canyon country-rock sound alongside Graffin’s insightful lyricism, all propelled by some esteemed colleagues from the LA punk scene including Social Distortion members Jonny ‘Two Bags’ Wickersham, Brent Harding and David Hidalgo Jr., with Bad Religion co-founder Brett Gurewitz producing.  The resulting record is less a reinvention then a creative liberation -  a group of Los Angeles musicians at the peak of their game, playing a brand of music they genuinely love. As Graffin explains, “This feels as exciting to me as when we made the Bad Religion record Suffer. Like everything had been leading up to the songs and they just happened totally organically in this short
