Under the Gun Review premieres “The Dangerous Kind” off Aaron Lee Tasjan’s forthcoming debut LP, In the Blazes
Aaron Lee Tasjan’s newest single, “The Dangerous Kind,” is a fine piece of blues rock ‘n’ roll music. The track—which comes off of Tasjan’s new record, In The Blazes—mixes everything from poignant storytelling to sleek and saucy guitar playing. “This love is the dangerous kind,” Tasjan sings. This song is the dangerous kind…dangerously good.
In The Blazes, due out Oct. 6, was tracked in one week at New Monkey Studio in Los Angeles. That’s the same studio where Elliott Smith’s posthumously released record From a Basement on a Hill was tracked. READ MORE…
Highlander’s new video for “Safe/Save” premieres at Surviving the Golden Age.
Atlanta’s Highlander recently released their second EP, Weird Future Deer Bear Wolf Records. Surviving the Golden Age is pleased to premiere the video for the single “Safe/Save.” The video is set up as the band is at an AA meeting. There are some laughs. There is some tension. One member loses his shirt. Unfortunately, the meeting does not do its job because by the end, the band is back to their old habits: drinking, smoking, and playing music. WATCH HERE…

Immersive Atlanta debuts acoustic live session of Sara Rachele performing her song “Never Come Around” from her 2014 debut LP Diamond Street
If I had to name singer-songwriter Sara Rachele’s greatest gift, it would be her ability to wring big emotions from the simplest of songs. Much of the credit can go to her honey-coated voice, although her knack for finding points of depth and complexity in her mostly spare arrangements shouldn’t be overlooked.
On “Never Come Around,” the full range of her gifts are on display, her heartrending vocals accompanied only by the gentle strum of her acoustic guitar. It’s a haunting, gorgeous song, and the video, shot live last year by Atlanta Entourage, only serves to highlight the intense beauty of her singing, which bristles with a kind of wounded vulnerability. We’re not sure why a performance so striking has been shelved for so long, but we’re very excited to be able to premiere it for you today. WATCH HERE
Glide Magazine with a great live review of People’s Blues of Richmond’s recent set opening for The Revivalists at The Bowery Ballroom
On Wednesday, warm up band People’s Blues of Richmond were rowdy, driving and loud and reminded me of the frenetic blues of Cedric Burnside and Lightnin’ Malcolm. They filled the club early with their own mass of fans who knew every word. It was wonderful to see a young band who so clearly enjoyed performing and being with their bandmates. As their time on stage was ending, each player was independently trying to catch the eye of the soundman to see how much longer they could stay on, and were ecstatic when they were granted two, not one, last songs. On Thursday, The Revivalists were supported by big-band old-school R&B/soul Gedeon Luke and the People, a nine-piece band coming off a couple months of touring. They had the crowd dancing the entire time and wandered out into the crowd for their encore. And with a lot of upcoming gigs in the area, they will most definitely be on my To See list. READ MORE…
