A new month brings another robust bounty of new albums! Angel Olsen delivers a masterclass in countrypolitan heartbreak on the magnificent Big Time. On Teeth Marks, Kentucky singer S.G. Goodman presents a set of raw and urgent roots-rockers. The first in a summer-long series of multimedia releases, Tedeschi Trucks Band’s I Am the Moon: I. Crescent is an ambitious appetizer from the rock-soul ensemble. Inside Problems features plenty of the clever phrasing and virtuosic instrumentation that have been Andrew Bird’s signatures for over two decades.
Houston’s premier gulf coast soul purveyors, The Suffers, make their return with the funky and thoughtful It Starts with Love. Patterson Hood mines stories from his band’s early days on Drive-By Truckers’ 14th LP, Welcome 2 Club XIII. Black Pumas guitarist/producer Adrian Quesada (who mixed The Suffers’ new album) teams up with Gabriel Garzón-Montano, iLe, and others on the modern balada tribute Boleros Psicodélicos. Freshly re-released from the vaults of Paisley Park, a transcendent 1985 performance from the Carrier Dome in Syracuse is essential listening (and viewing) for fans of Prince and the Revolution.
