mxdwn premieres “Tall Place” by Slut Magic

Hailing from Brooklyn, New York, punk rock quartet Slut Magic are clearly okay with a little abrasion. Their debut album has a pretty in-your-face title – In My Mouth – and the album cover features a shot of a women’s not-quite-covered chest. And then of course, there’s the name. Being rough around the edges doesn’t just reflect the visual aesthetic of the band, it also has bearing on their music. Today we have the premiere of the first song from In My Mouth, a song that burns slowly through the verses before pummeling the listener with sludgy chorus that along with the loud-quiet dynamic of the song structure recalls Bleach-era Nirvana.

The band was formed by singer/violinist Emma Sky with a little bit of inspiration from designer Lauren Ruicci – who both found the use of the word “slut” to be empowering and beautiful, hence the band name. They will be releasing their debut album through their own label, Laruicci Records, which comes out on April 13.

Sky created the band out of growing tired with her main band, which was called Violint Wednesday. When the rest of the band, which at the time included Michael Bottomley, Marc Hall and Alex Baker suggested they start playing completely fresh music, the idea for the name Slut Magic came to Sky, who recalled her and Ruicci’s ideas about the word “slut.” The current lineup of the band includes Sky, Bottomley (aka Hot Boyfriend) and Sir Marc Hall.

Pop Matters Premieres “Are You Ready For Some Hanky Panky” by Leslie Tom

With her new single, Leslie Tom poses the question: “Are You Ready For Some Hanky Panky?” The artist’s frisky play on words is actually in tribute to Hank Williams, taking listeners straight back to a 1950s honky-tonk with its classic country sound. Featuring jazz-infused electric guitar riffs and old-school pedal steel licks, Tom exchanges verses with Dean Miller as they dish the dirt on Williams’ life and times. The “hanky panky” under the spotlight comes in at the chorus, where Tom and Miller ask their audience the question in an energetic ode to the country legend.

When asked by PopMatters who some of her inspirations are, Tom said, “Hank Williams, his music inspires my own. My step-dad, Jim Rogers, he showed me what true, unconditional love was. My dad, Bob Alexander, gave me work ethic and a value system that is a firm foundation in how I approach everything in life; with honesty and integrity even when both of those things would be easier to forget.”

She also tells us that if she were able to travel anywhere in time, it would be to 1950s Alabama so she could meet Hank for herself. So, Tom’s admiration for the country icon certainly runs deep, and that much is as evident on this tune as it is throughout the rest of her upcoming album, Ain’t It Something, Hank Williams. The ten-track album isn’t your ordinary tribute album, featuring original songs wherein Tom reflects on the impact Williams has had on her career and her life. It was released via Coastal Bend on 23 March.

B-Sides and Badlands Interviews Leslie Tom

Leslie Tom

When Leslie Tom weeps, as she does so rather profusely with “Angel of Death,” a little known Hank Williams b-side, paired to 1954’s post-humous single “(I’m Gonna) Sing, Sing, Sing,” you feel the cold, blunt weight of every syllable. Tom has a way of penetrating your soul. The singer, who returns with her first new full-length in 12 years, a tribute record called Ain’t It Something, Hank Williams (out now), manages to rebuild the Williams cut into a chilling composition. “When The Angel of Death comes down after you, can you smile and say that you have been true? Can you truthfully say, with your dying breath, that you’re ready to meet the Angel of Death?” she sings, unpacking her own bruised psyche and brushes with death into a stormy wallop of a vocal performance.

Tom’s version remains firmly planted in the Williams original, fleshed out with fuller production and harmony work and ominous dobro playing from Andy Hall, of the Infamous Stringdusters. “The song spoke to me in a way his other songs do not,” she tells B-Sides & Badlands. Tom struck some good luck in purposely seeking out such an obscure Williams song, allowing herself to be pulled in the right direction by fate. “Since I’m in a place in my own life where mortality is ever-present with aging parents, a child and husband to think about before myself and facing the loss of a parent, the words of the song run through my head often in my own daily routine,” she says.

When The Cowboy Sings Premieres A New Release by Leslie Tom “Ain’t It Something, Hank Williams”

Leslie Tom

Leslie Tom’s Ain’t It Something, Hank Williams is not your typical tribute record. It’s a 10-track reflection of Leslie’s own journey in life, thoughtfully—and often playfully—intertwined with Hank Williams-inspired tales of addiction, love, heartache and loss. ‘A part of all of us died, too, the day he passed away,’ she croons on ‘Mr. Williams,’ spotlighting the legend’s lasting emotional and musical impact. Leading with her irresistible vocals and proclivity for grounded storytelling, Leslie has worked extensively with some of country music’s finest players, from honky-tonk piano veteran and Country Music Hall of Famer Hargus ‘Pig’ Robbins (Merle Haggard, Loretta Lynn, Sturgill Simpson) and pedal-steel genius Lloyd Green (George Jones, Johnny Paycheck, Charley Pride) to Asleep at the Wheel frontman Ray Benson.

Leslie has also had the honor of sharing stages with Lee Roy Parnell, Gene Watson and Kevin Fowler, and played the 2017 ZiegenBock Music Festival alongside such acts as Aaron Lewis, Josh Abbott Band, Blackberry Smoke, Whiskey Myers and Jamestown Revival. On Ain’t It Something, Hank Williams—recorded at Nashville’s Cinderella Sound Studios and produced by John Macy (Los Lobos, Nitty Gritty Dirt Band)—Leslie once again enlists Lloyd Green on steel and is joined by a long list of talented musicians, including Andy Hall of The Infamous Stringdusters (dobro on the somber “Angel of Death”), Walter Hartman (drums), Joe Reed (bass), Eugene Moles (guitar), Todd Moore (drums), Lindsey Brown (bass), Ben Waligoske (acoustic guitar) and Matt Weesner (wurlitzer). Alabama singer and songwriter Larry Nix can be heard throughout the record singing in perfect harmony with Leslie.

Red Line Boots Presents Singled Out: Charlie Overbey “Slip Away”

Charlie Overbey
Charlie Overbey
From: Los Angeles, CA
Song: “Slip Away” featuring Miranda Lee Richards
Latest record: Broken Arrow coming out April 20, 2018

What about it: “The song was written right after losing someone in my deep inner circle that was ruled to be an accident but to me seemed a suicide. I think that in times of despair, people tend to find warmth in darkness which is a trick of the mind as referred to in my favorite line in the song “And then you gimme’ that look / yeah you gimme that look, like your never comin’ back again / like you’ve crawled down into a deep dark hole / and it’s warm like the house of a friend.” A mind is a strange place which can turn dark to darker or vice versa with ease. 

“Slip Away” is definitely one of the deepest songs I’ve ever written and a personal favorite.” – Charlie Overbey

NYLON premieres Fort Gorgeous’ new “existential anthem”

“The lyrics are based around an anxious feeling and an existential conundrum that happens when I start to worry that I’m so deep in my own head that when I think I’m actually having realizations and making progress as a person, I’m actually just thinking in circles and repeating the same patterns,” Libby tells us. “The verses describe this dichotomy of feeling, like I really have a grasp on myself, and where my life is going, but then, on the other hand, sometimes feeling like I need external validation, whether that involves spilling my guts to friends or just rehashing things a million times over in my brain.”

At the end of the day, Libby sees “Round and Round” as a positive song. “Even though the lyrics are a bit gloomy, there’s still joy in realizing that no matter what, you are who you are and it’s really within your own ability to just be okay with it.”

“Round and Round” is lifted from Fort Gorgeous’ debut EP, The Bottom of the Sea, dropping May 4. READ MORE…
