Lily and the Tigers’ latest album is set for release on March 4. The Georgia-based indie-folk trio traveled to rural Vermont to record The Hand You Deal Yourself, which presents the current roster featuring co-founders Adam Mincey (upright bass) and Casey Hood (guitar vocals) along with Jared Pepper (Resophonic guitar). Hood explains, “This album is about the all the work we put in to get where we’re going. You can be influenced by a lot of things but ultimately you deal your own hand. We don’t carry our fear. We set it aside.” Lily and the Tigers will support the record with an extensive spring tour. Today we premiere “Angel of Mine” from The Hand You Deal Yourself.   LISTEN HERE

Ground Sounds premieres Bedouin’s “The City”

We are thrilled to be premiering a new song from Bedouin today called “The City.” She will be playing tonight at The Satellite in LA with Michael Kiwanuka and Willoughby. Don’t miss the chance to see her perform live!

“Bedouin’s sound is for the modern cyber gypsy, dipping a curious toe in the swaying Mediterranean before caravaning for weeks across the deserts of the Middle East, and finally catching a redeye back to L.A. for a pre-dawn Southern California stroll. The music is beautiful and striking, always reveling quietly in its search for some enigmatic unknown just out of reach. There is no ego here, no filter between Bedouin’s heart and her songs.” LISTEN HERE

Latest Disgrace describes Lily and the Tigers’ “The Hand You Deal Yourself” as “a haunting backwoods number that smells of pine and dust.”

Walking your own path and living with the consequences is a bread and butter theme for many folk artists, the sort of introspective, self-evaluative topic that begs for skeletal songs rooted in existential examination. In the case of “The Hand You Deal Yourself,” the title track from Lily and the Tigers’ upcoming third album, we’re confronted with a haunting backwoods number that smells of pine and dust and takes a few moments to crackle laconically to life like a tiny spark of hope trying to set fire to a lifetime of waterlogged dreams. Vocalist Casey Hood has the perfect voice for spilling her guts—rich, expressive and quietly confident—and here she unpacks her parcels of wisdom with a croon that’s both beautiful and weather-beaten. It’s a stirring effort, a raw testament to the power of simplicity and elegant restraint. READ MORE

Santa Cruz Arts Blog on The Wild: “Folk music for the post-punk generations.”

Dianna at The Crepe Place the wild witt wisebram santa cruz baby robot

The word ‘folk’ means a lot of different things, depending on your age and experience. For American hipsters listening to the folk/Americana of The Lumineers, Of Monsters and Men and Mumford’s various offspring, it’s a return to an older aesthetic and way of doing things. For the older generation, it is a celebration of the great things that have come before.

For the members of The Wild, it is an archetype to fit themselves into. They are a continuation, a generation removed, from what has been a progressive lineage. Woodie Guthrie sang the newspaper, Bob Dylan sang as if he were a character in the story, followed by Springsteen etc. This is key to The Wild’s sound, because they aren’t retro revivalists; they are folk music for the post-punk generations. When I spoke to Witt (vocals/guitars) after the show, that is exactly what he explained to me.  READ MORE
