Another Canadian singer-songwriter on the spotlight this week! This time we focus on Le Ren’s debut LP, “Leftovers”. Sure, the name might sound like we’re dealing a b-sides collection here, but this is prime folk material.
Bolachas Now Playing, a new music Spotify playlist, updated every Wednesday.
The Nude Party are 2020’s kings of cool. Which is kinda unfortunate, since in a normal world they would be everybody’s pick for the next festival season. Feel-good and groovy as it gets, “Midnight Manor” was clearly made for an older world where we’re all out partying. Let’s pretend it never changed.
Plus: new tracks by Esther Rose, Deep Sea Diver, The Clientele, Justin Wade Tam, Cartalk, Adrianne Lenker, Anna McClellan, Hamilton Leithauser, Jeff Tweedy of Wilco, Half Japanese, Fuzz, Te Voy A Matar, Laura Jane Grace of Against Me!, Shilpa Ray, Eartheater, Jennifer Castle, Sam Amidon, Andrew Bird, Jim Audet Music, Jonathan Wilson, Luka Kuplowsky, Brent Cobb, Kurt Vile, Steve Earle, Fruit Bats, and The Good Ones.
Another week, another half-surprise release. We didn’t have access to a single song off Fiona Apple’s stunning new record (her first in 8 years) and we missed how good it is to be able to be surprised in an age where we already listened to a third of a record by the time it’s out. Plus: almost two hours of brand new music by the Mountain Goats, Bright Eyes, Hamilton Leithauser, King Khan, Malena Zavala, Faye Webster, Lido Pimienta, Rina Sawayama, Bedouine, Sarah Siskind, Courtney Marie Andrews, Hazel English, Pacific Range, Fruit Bats, Trace Mountains, Nathan Kalish, Dougie Poole, Whiskey Wolves of the West, The Howling Hex, Flatworms, Car Seat Headrest, Stereoboy, Malojian, Sir Richard Bishop, and The Deep Dark Woods.
