Similar to the way having a copious amount of choice can bring enthralling possibility or a paralyzing level of uncertainty, being left to one’s own devices in a place of quiet separation can yield vastly different results for anyone that embraces the environment. Though some might find the prospect of deliberate social withdrawal challenging, for songwriter and musical journeyman Spencer Burton, pursuit of a quieter life after extensive touring and becoming a parent served as more of a full circle milestone and Burton’s new single “Further” definitely supports that idea.

Our Culture Mag shines their artist spotlight on Margaret Chavez, debuting NEW video for 8-minute epic, “H O R A”
Margaret Chavez is the project of Austin-based singer-songwriter Marcus William Striplin, who fuses elements of space rock, freak folk, and alt-country. Having started out his career in the late 90s as one half of the psychedelic outfit Pleasant Grove, he recently issued his second solo album, Into An Atmosphere – a sprawling, ambitious, and often breathtaking effort co-produced by longtime collaborator Stuart Sikes (Cat Power, Loretta Lynn, The White Stripes) and mastered by Greg Calbi (John Lennon, David Bowie, Bruce Springsteen).
Arkansas Democrat-Gazette unfolds the epic story behind Hi-Watter, the long-awaited debut album from Rev. Greg Spradlin and the Band of Imperials
In 2010 Pete Thomas, the drummer for Elvis Costello’s bands The Attractions and The Imposters, was in Little Rock to record some songs with Indy Grotto, wife of producer Jason Weinheimer, for her solo album. While Thomas was here, Weinheimer encouraged Greg Spradlin, the singer-songwriter-hotshot guitarist and longtime Arkansas musical stalwart, to come jam with the British drummer.
That session was a life-changing one for Spradlin, though he didn’t know it at the time. “I thought, yeah, I could spend a day with him,” the 51-year-old Spradlin says. “I had about three songs. That’s probably all we could get done anyway.”
He admits that he was expecting something more laid-back, but Thomas — who not only drummed on legendary Costello albums like “This Year’s Model,” “Get Happy,” “Armed Forces,” “Imperial Bedroom” and more, but is also an in-demand studio drummer who has played with Randy Newman, Sheryl Crow and others — had a different approach. “He’s a perfectionist, and it goes really quick,” Spradlin says. “We got through those three songs before lunch.”
There was an undeniable chemistry, and that informal jam started Spradlin on a musical trip that would take him to Los Angeles to record with, among others, Thomas, Los Lobos founding member David Hidalgo, the late keyboardist Rudy Copeland and bassist Davey Faragher of Cracker and The Imposters.

Indie Obsessive deconstructs new Radiator King single “Haunts Me Now”
“Haunts Me Now” invites dissection. Certainly, the single from Radiator King separates itself from the pack because of the candidness carried in the intelligently written lyrics, as well as the vocal commitment to the sentiment of those lyrics. Still, only by examining some of the individual elements of “Haunts Me Now” can the song be fully appreciated. It isn’t a true dissection, because it is an examination of individual “limbs” and how they cooperate with the rest of the body.
The first example is the 12-second intro and its gentle attractiveness. The guitar tugs at the listener’s attention and sets expectations for the body of “Haunts Me Now.” Then, the vocals enter, and the expectations require a reboot. The voice is not melodically smooth in a manner consistent with the intro. Instead, memories are presented by a gruff voice. The reminiscing explains that while he once was “left black and blue for days,” he can now take on any man here. But for the most part, a memory of the past still “haunts me now.”
