Alt-pop icon Gus Dapperton�s vast and ambitious album Henge builds a new world � tugging the listeners between night and day, socializing and solitude. With �nearly 2 billion collective streams across his career � the Warwick, NY native constructed the album with the concept of entering an underworld as the sun goes down and trying to get home before dawn�or risk being stuck in a time loop. Sonically the album delivers a contemporary eclectic sprawl, at times landing between 80�s new-wave and 70�s funk. Collaborators include Cruel Santino, Ocean Vuong, and BENEE � who Dapperton reunites with musically following their double-platinum viral hit �Supalonely� which has amassed over 1 billion streams. Dapperton�s music maintains the intimacy that made his previous offerings so resonant � including singles Horizons, Wet Cement, and Don�t Let Me Down.�

A Jason Isbell record always lands like a decoder ring in the ears and hearts of his audience, a soundtrack to his world and magically to theirs, too. Weathervanes carries the same revelatory power. This is a storyteller at the peak of his craft, observing his fellow wanderers, looking inside and trying to understand, reducing a universe to four minutes. He shrinks life small enough to name the fear and then strip it away, helping his listeners make sense of how two plus two stops equaling four once you reach a certain age -- and carry a certain amount of scars.

�There is something about boundaries on this record,� Isbell says. �As you mature, you still attempt to keep the ability to love somebody fully and completely while you�re growing into an adult and learning how to love yourself.�

Weathervanes is a collection of grown-up songs: Songs about adult love, about change, about the danger of nostalgia and the interrogation of myths, about cruelty and regret and redemption. Life and death songs played for and by grown ass people. Some will make you cry alone in your car and others will make you sing along with thousands of strangers in a big summer pavilion, united in the great miracle of being alive. The record features the rolling thunder of Isbell�s fearsome 400 Unit, who�ve earned a place in the rock �n� roll cosmos alongside the greatest backing ensembles, as powerful and essential to the storytelling as The E Street Band or the Wailers.

They make a big noise, as Isbell puts it, and he feels so comfortable letting them be a main prism through which much of the world hears his art. He can be private but with them behind him he transforms, and there is a version of himself that can only exist in their presence. When he plays a solo show, he is in charge of the entire complicated juggle. On stage with the 400 Unit, he can be a guitar hero when he wants, and a conductor when he wants, and a smiling fan of the majesty of his bandmates when he wants to hang back and listen to the sound.

Jenny Lewis� fifth solo album, Joy�All arrives June 9th. Joy�All finds the singer-songwriter embarking on a new era, in a new town � and on a new label, as she joins the iconic roster of Blue Note/Capitol Records.

Recorded at Nashville�s historic RCA Studio A, Joy�All includes new single �Psychos� and the previously released single �Puppy and a Truck.�

"In 2004 the Drive-By Truckers released what would become the best selling album in their illustrious catalog. The Dirty South is a concept album that examines the state of the South, and unveils the hypocrisy, irony, and tragedy that continues to exist. The album features live show staples like, �Tornadoes�, �Where The Devil Dont Stay� and �Puttin People On The Moon� as well as rarities like �Goode�s Field Road� and �Daddy�s Cup.�

The Complete Dirty South is a band-led rework of the original album. Principal member, Patterson Hood, took the reins and reimagined this record as it was originally intended. The complete version features resequenced audio, three additional tracks, four remixes along with updated vocals.

Throughout the ten tracks in their new album Let There Be Music, you can�hear the spaciousness Bonny Doon allowed themselves since their 2018�sleeper cult-classic Longwave. Their latest musical journey is one that has�big payoffs for devoted followers and undeniable rewards for anyone just�stumbling across the band for the first time. After extensively touring Longwave by supporting Band of Horses, Snail Mail and Waxahatchee, Lennox and�Colombo were invited by Katie Crutchfield to collaborate on Waxahatchee�s�critically acclaimed album Saint Cloud. �The experience raised the ceiling on�our imagination,� Colombo said.

Soon after, Colombo and Kmiecik, whose steady percussion and devotion to�the songs creates a container for the indelible guitar lines, both entered a time�of serious healing, Jake tending to complications of his Crohn�s disease and�Bobby to a brain injury and undiagnosed Lyme disease. While these detours of�doctors� appointments and experimental care were taking place, the members of Bonny Doon were also playing on Waxahatachee�s Saint Cloud tour.�These obstacles and commitments drew out the making of Let There Be Music�for several additional years, and in the process, redefined the record as an�achievement in perseverance for the band.

On their long-awaited third album, we get a glimpse into the pure joy of Bonny�Doon. The album serves as less of one conceptual story, and each song�as their own individual offerings of putting words to the ordinary experience�of being alive. The band is at their most dynamic and the songwriting deftly�explores new terrain. Let There Be Music is brimming with small truths - both�profound and mundane, comforting and difficult - and we are invited to revel in�them all.
