#405: Vera Sola, “Shades”
Bolachas Now Playing, a new music Spotify playlist, updated every Wednesday.
The upside of not having concerts to go to is the fact that we have even more time to listen to new music than before. There are 32 songs in our playlist this week, but that’s only because we try to keep it below two hours. And on the spotlight this time around is My Morning Jacket’s surprise release of The Waterfall II, the second set of songs coming from the same session that gave us one of the best rock albums of the past decade. This would be the time for me to beg Jim James and the guys to come over to Europe, but it looks that won’t happen any time soon.
New album tracks/singles by Holy Wave, Peel Dream Magazine, HUM, Coriky, Bob Mould, Silver Scrolls, Songhoy Blues, Art Feynman, bdrmm, Naked Giants, The Beths, Margo Price, The Jayhawks, Robert Chaney, Skyway Man, Ray LaMontagne, Kalen & Aslyn, Grace Gillespie, Kate Bollinger, Lomelda, Slow Pulp, M. Ward, Devendra Banhart, Summer Salt, The Clientele, Matt Costa, Gillian Welch & David Rawlings, Theo Lawrence, Joshua Ray Walker, and Jeannie Seely.
‘what we say in private’ is the debut album by Canadian singer-songwriter/painter/visual artist Alexandra Levy, or Ada Lea. It’s been out for less than a handful of days but it’s already one of our indie rock albums of the year. Is it because its opening song sounds like a lost track off Wilco’s Yankee Hotel Foxtrot’s recording sessions that eventually morphs into a more layered Big Thief song, while never sounding like a tribute to either bands? Or maybe it’s because of the stellar songwriting in it. We don’t know. Let’s just listen.
Plus: new tracks by Wilco (the new kind of Wilco, not the old YHF one), Andrew Combs, Strange Ranger, Long Beard, Aviva le Fey, Shannon Lay, Joan Shelley, Holy Golden (now known as Dolly Valentine), Summer Salt, Grace Lightman, Bleached, Roselit Bone, Trash Kit, Fly Pan Am, Adam Green, Tony Molina, Leon Bridges, Whitney, RF Shannon, Hiss Golden Messenger, Joe Pug, Jim Lauderdale, and Twain + The Deslondes.
