Wednesday Morning Music Shuffle - Something Something Something Mix

Moving right along... reminder check back with #CXCW this evening for the big awards ceremony.  What was you favorite moment of the festival? (While you are there, be sure to check out any videos you may have missed.

Shuffling up some music added during the month of March.  Here is today's mix:


First up with have Will Kimbrough (Will & the Bushmen, The Bis-quits, Daddy) who has played and/or recorded with Emmylou Harris, Jimmy Buffet, Todd Snider, Garrison Starr, Tommy Womack among others. Today's track is off his 2010 album Wings, The Day of the Troubadour seems like a good song choice for a man whose music currently has him touring Scandinavia.
Use the image below to head over to Amazon to check out Wings by Will Kimbrough.

 



Dawes is one of the hottest indie/Americana/Alt-Country bands around.  The rich, smooth sound of this band, with it's familiar yet modern feel has garnered the band a lot of attention and the opportunity to work with the great California singer/songwriter Jackson Browne.   Their latest release  Nothing is Wrong was released last year, and today we have the track Moon in the Water.  Check out Nothing is Wrong by Dawes on Amazon.com by clicking the image below.
 


Bobby Womack has a long and storied career which has included forays into R&B, Soul, Rock, Country, Doo-Wop and Gospel. He has a brand new album due out in June which is called The Bravest Man in the Universe - it will be his first album of original recordings since 1994.  The first track from the forthcoming album has dropped, and you can get Please, Forgive my Heart by clicking on the rather disturbing image below:


 

 Teen Daze comes from Vancouver, Canada.  The first full-length album is due out in May and is called All of Us, Together. The first song out. It's called Treton and you can pick up over on Bandcamp:

Bobby Womack: Midnight Mover: The True Story of the Greatest Soul Singer in the World Bobby Womack: Midnight Mover: The True Story of the Greatest Soul Singer in the World
Bobby Womack is a legend--a phenomenally gifted singer, songwriter, and guitarist with 40 albums and 30 million record sales to his name. A protege of Sam Cooke, Womack wrote classics that include "Lookin' for a Love" and "It's All Over Now" (a smash-hit for the Rolling Stones). Their success helped make him a star, but ongoing battles with drugs and the record industry nearly destroyed him. Behind his music lies a life scorched by tragedy, beginning with his impoverished childhood in Cleveland, to his years touring and recording with the greats--including James Brown, Jimi Hendrix, Sam Cooke, Aretha Franklin, Wilson Pickett, Eric Clapton, and Elvis Presley--and through the years of drugs, partying, and riotous abuse, this is the authentic voice of a major soul artist.
