Friday is new release day! Each week we feature new albums and songs from them that we’re digging! We’ve got lots to listen to including the first solo album from Marcus King. The wildly talented guitarist teamed up with The Black Keys’ Dan Auerbach for El Dorado. The focus is on the songwriting, but plenty of sweet licks to be found! Also, new albums from G. Love, Portland’s roots-rockers Fruition, cult-favorite English songwriter Bill Fay, and local favs like Lancaster’s The Innocence Mission and Philly’s Stella Ruze. #PressPlay and enjoy!
