The Head just released new EP Girls Of The Yukon. The Atlanta trio started in 2007 when all three members were high-school freshmen. According to the band, Girls Of The Yukon was recorded almost entirely live. “We wanted it to reflect the energy we radiate during our live shows,” says the band’s Jack Shaw. “It’s a lot more raw—more stripped-down, honest and to-the-point than anything we’ve done before.” We are proud to premiere album track “Realize” today on magnetmagazine.com – READ MORE…
Here you go music fans, the next album on the 31 Days of Music: Best of 2013 at Number 20 is (drum roll please) Tedo Stone, Good Go Bad. A mighty fine record from a talented individual. Don’t forget to listen to all this great music on the AME’s 31 Days of Music: Best of 2013 Spotify playlist.
When Tedo Stone released his debut EP – Happy – I couldn’t get enough of it. The Atlanta/Athens musician perfectly blended spacey guitars, psychedelic fuzz and Byrds era country rock into one unique sound. Employing a dogged work ethic Stone built up quite a following through live shows, the internet and word of mouth. Once you heard the EP you had to see a live show and once you heard Tedo live it made the EP that much better. The past year has seen him team up with This Is American Music which has been a big part of his explosion in popularity, well that and the fact his music is so damn good. READ MORE…
There’s a lot of growing up that happens for most people in high school. For Atlanta-based band The Head, it included graduating from a cover band to a full-fledged, music-writing endeavor.
That maturing experience meant big things for the power-pop trio, the members of which found themselves in the tough spot of sometimes not being old enough to play in bars and clubs. Not so the case today, as each member is at last 21, and it certainly won’t be an issue when The Head plays at Mud and Water in Baton Rouge on Dec. 18.
