Be sure to "Like" Ear to the Ground on Facebook!
Rushing headlong into another week of music. The third episode of the new Ear to the Ground radio show will be on the air tomorrow morning at 6am and the the 44th show of my other radio show - Greetings from Nashville will be up Thursday at the same time. The latter show will be a special for Women's History Month and International Women's Day which is today.
Meanwhile, below - we have our weekly Music City Monday Shuffle and we continue our recap of this week's Featured Friday Playlist - which you can stream below. (If you are on Spotify and so inclined - give us a "Follow").
We resume our recap of this week's Featured Friday Playlist with songs numbered 11-16:
11. "Mixed Signals" by Jack Silverman
Starting things off today is the first single from the forthcoming new album by East Nashville guitar guru Jack Silverman. I have been fortunate enough to see Silverman live a few times, and I can tell you even for a non-guitarist - he is impressive. I always love great instrumental music.
12. "NO NAME" by Young Robot
I came across this Nashville band on Instagram, and I was curious. This is their latest single, and I was suitably impressed. Cool stuff.
13. "Every Night I Burn Another Honky Tonk Down" by Dallas Moore
Next up, we have the lead single from The Rain - which is due out in April from this Outlaw singer-songwriter. It follows his 2019 release and was recorded during a time when he hoped to be playing over 300 shows for the tenth year in a row. This song is a celebration of live music which hits at a good time.
14. "Pay Grade" by Carl Anderson
The last couple of songs we have featured from Charlottesville, VA native and East Nashville favorite Carl Anderson have been covers. This is a track from"Taking Off & Landing - his new EP of original material. Great stuff.
15. "Sail on, My Friend" by Todd Snider
We could not let new Todd Snider music pass without mention. This first taste from his new album is a tribute to those he (and we) have lost. It is lovely and touching in a way that only Todd Snider can do. The first time, I met Todd Snider - he insisted that we had met before - and I didn't argue. Sue and I used his cover of "Enjoy Yourself" as our Outro song for four years on Double Shot. Honestly, without him (and folks like Mac Hill, Mike Grimes, and other pioneers) the East Nashville community that took me in during my darkest days would likely not have existed.
16. "Melt Lock- Count- down" by Kettleflower
And we close with the lead single from the new EP from Kettleflower - which a project that features long time E2TG favorite Patrick Rickelton (aka Prattle, On Rick).
Featured Friday Playlist
"Even the Radio" by Runner of the Woods (from Thirsty Valley - 2015)
First up, in the Music City Monday shuffle - we have a track from the 2015 album by Nashville's resident Cajun band - led by Nicolas Beaudoing.
"Salvation" by Solar Twin (from Pink Noise - 2017)
Next up, a great track from the Shane Tutmarc's Solar Twin project. We premiered the video for the latest single from his band Dolour on Friday (and featured the single in the Featured Friday Playlist).
"First of May" by Aqua Velvet (from Home for the Holiday - 2020)
Well... at least this Holiday song's title doesn't make it seem like a Holiday song. In any case, any chance to hear one of Jim Hoke's arrangements and Kristi Rose's wonderful vocals - is fine no matter the date or the season. When such things are possible and you see a Aqua Velvet show pop up - get your tickets and go.
"Light in the Dark" by Stuck Lucky (from Stuck Lucky 2016 - 2016)
I first caught ska-punk band Stuck Lucky at a show at the Foo Bar back in 2013 when our old friends The End Men came to town with their friends The Slaughterhouse Chorus. I later caught them at one of the last Decline of Southern Civilization shows in early 2020 at The 5 Spot - with Slump Test.
"Turn the Wheel" by Carl Anderson (from You Can Still Call Me Carl - 2020)
And, we close with another Carl Anderson - tune - this one from last year - a bonus track from 2019's You Can Call Me Carl.
