#49: David Bowie, “Blackstar”

Bolachas Now Playing is back with plenty of new music after the holiday season. David Bowie would still be featured even if he was alive – his latest record, Blackstar, is undoubtedly the first highlight of 2016. Some old favorites will be releasing new records this winter/spring (Explosions in the Sky, Tortoise, Woods, Yeasayer, Basia Bulat, Eleanor Friedberger), some are just starting (Cam, Anderson Paak, Margo Price) but there’s so much more: new tracks by Villagers, Jacob Faurholt, Matthew E. White & Natalie Prass, Santigold, and Brandy Clark. Here’s the first Bolachas Now Playing of the year, the 49th since we first started.

#17: Giant Sand, “Heartbreak Pass”

In this week’s playlist we focus on the new Giant Sand album, Heartbreak Pass. Here’s to more 30 years of Howe Gelb writing better songs than you! One of the acts to check on this years’ NOS Primavera Sound in about a month. Be sure to check Twerps as well – we’ll let you know when the festival’s timetable is available! I wish I could say My Morning Jacket would be there too… Their new record is amazing. What a time to be alive.
